Characterization of Snap-Cure Epoxy Resin under Tension and Compression Loading at Quasi-static, Intermediate and High Strain Rates

Zeng, Yu; Cronin, Duane; Montesano, John (2022)

The recent development of snap curing epoxy resins, low-cost reinforcement fabrics, and automated rapid processing technologies has led to increased usage of fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) composite materials in high-volume ...
Damage Measurements in Epoxy Structural Adhesives using Microhardness

Trimiño, Luis; Cronin, Duane (Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2018-04)

The design of adhesively joined components requires the ability to predict and model the joint response under expected operating conditions, including crash events for vehicle structures. Specifically, quantifying adhesive ...
Incorporating Ligament Laxity in the Upper Cervical Spine for Finite Element Modeling

Lasswell, Timothy; Cronin, Duane; Medley, John B.; Rasoulinejad, Parham (Elsevier, 2017-06-30)

Background Context: Predicting physiological range of motion (ROM) using a finite element (FE) model of the upper cervical spine requires the incorporation of ligament laxity. The effect of ligament laxity can only be ...
