In this study, the strain fields on two different length scales in a particulate composite material containing hard particles embedded in a rubbery matrix were investigated, using two different techniques. The experimental results were analyzed and are discussed.

Bone is a composite material with hydroxyapatite mineral, collagen, and water as primary components. Water plays an important role in maintaining the mechanical integrity of the composite, but the manner in which water interacts within the collagen and mineral at ultrastructural length-scales is poorly understood. The current study examined changes in the mechanical properties of bone as a function of hydration state. Tissues were soaked in different solvents and solutions, with different polarities, to manipulate tissue hydration. Mineralized bone was characterized using nanoindentation creep tests for quantification of both the elastic and viscoelastic mechanical responses, which varied dramatically with tissue bathing solution. The results were considered within the context of solution physical chemistry. Selectively removing and then replacing water provided insights into the ultrastructure of the tissues via the corresponding changes in the experimentally determined mechanical responses.

ABSTRACTDuring processes of mechanical alloying the characteristic structural length scales of an alloy, including the phase domain size and the crystallite grain size, decrease gradually to a nanocrystalline or even amorphous final state. This method therefore allows a unique avenue to explore the structure-property relationship over several orders of magnitude in length scale. In this work we have considered an ideal equiatomic Ti-Zr system deformed through multiple cold-rolling passes to refine the structural length scales into the nanometer range. The variation of the hardness of the system with decreasing length scale is discussed in terms of traditional Hall-Petch scaling, chemical mixing and the phase evolution of the system, as well as other possible contributions to the hardness variations during processing.
