(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)Nanocrystalline materials have experienced a great deal of attention in recent years, largely due to their impressive array of physical properties. In particular, nanocrystalline mechanical behavior has been of interest, ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Over the past 10-15 years, there have been tremendous research efforts in the synthesis of nanomaterials with unique electronic properties. Much less work, however, has focused on the incorporation of the nanomaterials ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)Bulk metallic glasses, though attractive for use in structural applications for their high strength and elastic limit, display several unacceptable features upon deformation, including quasi-brittle failure along shear ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Although the mechanics of bone has been studied extensively at the micro- and macro-scale, the nano-scopic level is perhaps the most illuminating as this is the length scale at which the individual constituents interact. ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)In this thesis, the shear and self-adhesion nanomechanical properties between opposing cartilage aggrecan macromolecules were probed. In addition, nanoscale dynamic oscillatory mechanical properties of cartilage and its ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)In this thesis, experimental, computational and analytical approaches are employed to examine systematically the mechanisms of deformation in crystalline materials. Such insight can be used to exploit and avoid contact in ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)There is a significant need for improved synthetic materials as orthopedic implants to replace human bone lost and damaged due to disease or injury. Certain ceramics, such as hydroxyapatite (HA), have the special property ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)Without doubt, energy and environment are becoming central issues for the future. In this regard, not only device performance but also environmentally sustainable ways of making energy device is important. To meet these ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)The unique mechanical behavior of nanocrystalline metals has become of great interest in recent years, owing to both their remarkable strength and the emergence of new deformation physics at the nanoscale. Of particular ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Colloidal dispersions are usually stabilized by interparticle electrostatic repulsion. However, strong electrostatic potentials prevent nucleation of new structures. When the electrostatic potential is strongly attractive, ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)This thesis explored the incorporation of iptycenes into polymers as a means to enhance the mechanical properties. Iptycene structures were targeted because they possess a unique structural property called internal molecular ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Molecular organic semiconductors and nanometer size particles are two new classes of functional materials allowing fabrication of electronic devices on low-cost and large area substrates. Patterning these electronic materials ...
