The aim of this paper is to evaluate the effective properties of composite materials with periodic random packing of ellipsoids of different volume fractions and aspect ratios. Therefore, we employ computational homogenization. ...

Glare avoidance and marking lights are two of the many functionalities offered by advanced automotive headlamps such as Matrix-LED systems. DMD-based headlamps offer resolution enhancements to these two adaptive lighting ...

Currently, prediction of crack initiation by corrosion pits is only possible by assuming regular geometrical shapes, such as semi-spheres or semi-ellipsoids. Moreover, typical fatigue life diagrams associate the crack ...
