A new method combining micro-X-ray computed tomography (μXCT) and volumetric digital image correlation (V-DIC) in conjunction with in-situ mechanical testing was used to probe three-dimensional (3D) deformation behavior in a friction stir blind rivet (FSBR) joint of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composite. Intrinsic microstructural features such as fibers, pores and metal inclusions enabled...
MEMS and NEMS devices typically have a large surface area to volume ratio. As a result, a major concern in the development of such devices is friction. Contact radii in MEMS and NEMS devices are expected to range from 10−8<a<10−5 m. This regime, which generally lies between the limits of single asperity and macroscopic contact, has yet to be explored because the apparati used to characterize...
