chemischemechanische
Chemischemechanische, sometimes written as chemische Mechanik or chemo-mechanics in English, denotes the study of interactions between chemical processes and mechanical behavior in materials. It addresses how chemical species diffuse, react, or phase transform within a solid, and how these chemical processes are affected by stress, strain, temperature, and microstructure. The central idea is chemo-mechanical coupling: mechanical fields influence chemical potential and transport, while chemical changes alter stiffness, strength, and geometry.
Key mechanisms include stress-assisted diffusion and diffusion under concentration gradients; stress-corrosion cracking and hydrogen embrittlement; volume
Applications span energy storage materials, structural alloys, ceramics, and geophysical processes. In energy storage, understanding chemo-mechanical
