Numerous studies have explored the fracture and rupture of network polymers through molecular simulations. The majority of these studies have focused on inter- and intrachain interactions. Stevens [1, ...
The essential work of fracture (EWF) method is a widely adopted approach for quantifying the fracture toughness of ductile polymer materials and their composites. By partitioning the total fracture ...
A new biocompatible polymer-based composite material could soon replace metal plates in treating difficult and unstable fractures. Developed at KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, the ...

For more than half a century, materials scientists have struggled with how to simulate the complexity of polymer materials.
A new biocompatible polymer-based composite material could soon replace metal plates in treating difficult and unstable fractures. The newly-developed material is as strong as dental composites yet ...
