Membrane stretching based creep damage analytical solutions for thin disc small punch problem (2022)
Journal Article
Ragab, R., Liu, T., Li, M., & Sun, W. (2022). Membrane stretching based creep damage analytical solutions for thin disc small punch problem. Journal of the Mechanics and Physics of Solids, 165, Article 104928. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmps.2022.104928

The small punch creep test (SPCT) presents a novel miniaturized testing technique popularly used to characterise creep and damage properties of high-temperature materials. Due to the complex non-linear deformation behaviour in the SPCT, a mechanistic... Read More about Membrane stretching based creep damage analytical solutions for thin disc small punch problem.

Supramolecular Proton Conductors Self-Assembled by Organic Cages (2022)
Journal Article
Yang, Z., Zhang, N., Lei, L., Yu, C., Ding, J., Li, P., Chen, J., Li, M., Ling, S., Zhuang, X., & Zhang, S. (2022). Supramolecular Proton Conductors Self-Assembled by Organic Cages. JACS Au, 2(4), 819-826. https://doi.org/10.1021/jacsau.1c00556

Proton conduction is vital for living systems to execute various physiological activities. The understanding of its mechanism is also essential for the development of state-of-the-art applications, including fuel-cell technology. We herein present a...

Requirements for and Challenges in Developing Improved Creep Ductility-based Constitutive Models for Tempered Martensitic CSEF Steels (2022)
Journal Article
Ragab, R., Parker, J., Li, M., Liu, T., Morris, A., & Sun, W. (2022). Requirements for and Challenges in Developing Improved Creep Ductility-based Constitutive Models for Tempered Martensitic CSEF Steels. Journal of Materials Research and Technology, 17, 3337-3360. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmrt.2022.02.047

Creep fracture behaviour of tempered martensitic steels is generally governed by the process of cavity nucleation, growth and coalescence into microcracks. Therefore, creep ductility, which can be treated as material resistance to damage, has a criti...

A miniaturized thin-plate low cycle fatigue test method at elevated temperature (2022)
Journal Article
Li, M., Maskill, S., Wen, Z., Yue, Z., & Sun, W. (2022). A miniaturized thin-plate low cycle fatigue test method at elevated temperature. Fatigue and Fracture of Engineering Materials and Structures, 45(5), 1361-1378. https://doi.org/10.1111/ffe.13665

This study aims to develop a high-temperature low cycle fatigue test method using a nonstandard miniature thin-plate specimen in order to characterize the cyclic viscoplasticity behavior of a component material. For demonstration, fully reversed stra... Read More about A miniaturized thin-plate low cycle fatigue test method at elevated temperature.
