Crystalline nanowires with point defects show large anelastic behaviour, leading to efficient mechanical energy dissipation. Anelastic materials exhibit gradual full recovery of deformation once a ...

Furthermore, the anelastic regime studied here is far off the region where macroscopic- and system-spanning shear bands appear, both in time and stress.

Researchers from North Carolina State University and Brown University have found that zinc oxide and silicon nanowires have a pronounced anelasticity. This could enable the development of stretchable, ...

My primary research interests include theoretical and computational seismology, wave propagation phenomena in complex media and 3-D seismic tomography. My Ph.D. research (with Dr. Ying Zhou) is to ...
