Summary
Delamination is a critical failure mechanism in advanced materials and structures such as polymer-based materials, composites, and coatings, affecting structural integrity and long-term reliability in various engineering applications. The study of delamination mechanisms, prevention strategies, and advanced characterization techniques has gained increasing attention due to the growing demand for lightweight and high-performance materials in aerospace, automotive, biomedical, and electronic industries. Addressing delamination-related challenges is crucial for enhancing material durability, optimizing manufacturing processes, and improving mechanical performance under extreme conditions. This Special Issue aims to provide a platform for researchers to present novel insights into delamination phenomena, explore innovative modeling approaches, and propose advanced mitigation techniques. By bringing together experts from academia and industry, this issue will contribute to the advancement of knowledge in delamination science and engineering.
The Special Issue ?Delamination? focuses on recent advances in the understanding, modeling, experiments, and mitigation of delamination in polymer materials and their composites. The issue seeks high-quality contributions that address both fundamental research and practical applications, covering experimental, theoretical, and computational studies.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
· Mechanisms and failure modes of delamination in polymer-based materials
· Advanced characterization techniques for delamination analysis
· Computational modeling and simulations of delamination processes
· Interfacial adhesion and mechanical performance in multilayer polymer structures
· Fatigue, impact, and environmental effects on delamination behavior
· Innovative materials and coatings for delamination resistance
· Additive manufacturing and novel fabrication techniques to minimize delamination
· Applications in aerospace, automotive, electronics, and biomedical industries
We invite researchers and industry professionals to submit original research articles, and review papers that contribute to advancing knowledge in this important research area. This Special Issue will serve as a valuable resource for scientists and engineers working towards improving the durability and performance of advanced materials and structures against delamination.
