Development of Strong Surfaces Using Functionally Graded Composites Inspired by Natural Teeth—A Theoretical Approach
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In recent years functionally-graded composites have been proposed to develop strong surfaces that can withstand high contact and frictional forces. The present work presents a new graded composite ...
Development of Strong Surfaces Using Functionally Graded Composites Inspired by Natural Teeth—Finite Element and Experimental Verification
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Functionally graded materials (FGMs) are composite materials that exhibit a microstructure that varies locally in order to achieve a specific type of local material properties distribution. In ...
Pretwisted Beams in Axial Tension and Torsion: Analogy with Dipolar Gradient Elasticity and Applications to Textile Materials
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A technical theory for pretwisted beams that accounts for variable twist (constrained warping) is based on an approximate displacement field that is defined completely in terms of two unknown functions: the axial displacement
