A one-dimensional micromechanical model of elastic-microplastic damage evolution

AI summary Read the abstract

A one-dimensional micromechanical model based on Dugdale microcracks predicts elastic-microductile damage evolution, capturing both macroscopic hardening and softening behavior during loading and continuous damage accumulation during unloading. This physically-based damage model provides a foundation for predicting progressive failure in ductile materials subjected to monotonic loading.

Realization of the strength of carbon fibres in microplastics

AI summary Read the abstract

The strength of carbon fibers realized in microplastic composites depends strongly on fiber modulus of elasticity and the scale effect parameter, with an established empirical relationship predicting composite strength from fiber properties. This work enables more accurate design of carbon fiber reinforced plastics by connecting fiber characteristics to composite performance.

Exploring the continuum between nanoplastics and oligomers

AI summary Read the abstract

A study of submicron particles shed from synthetic textiles revealed a continuum between nanoplastics and oligomers, providing insight into their molecular origins and physicochemical properties. Understanding this transition zone is critical because nanoplastic-scale particles and plastic-derived oligomers are the least studied and potentially most biologically active fraction of microplastic pollution.
