Molecular dynamics study of thermomechanical strength enhancement in silica aerogel reinforced with paraffin under external electric fields

Aerogels are extremely porous, low-density solids with distinct thermal and mechanical characteristics. The addition of phase change materials (PCMs), such as paraffin, to silica aerogels, may greatly improve their functioning, especially for thermal energy applications. This work examines the mecha...
