In my August 2021 column, I introduced the composites building block approach as a step-by-step series of mechanical tests of increasing complexity, coupled with analyses performed at each step, that ...

In my two previous columns, I discussed the lower and intermediate levels of the building block approach for crashworthiness testing and analysis of composite structures. I focused on the commercial ...

An element-block is defined as a minimum functional unit composed of heteroatoms. The concept of ‘element-block material’ for designing advanced materials was proposed in 2015. In this review, the ...
