Abstract: Moiré patterns, typically formed by overlaying two layers of two-dimensional materials, exhibit an effective long-range periodicity that depends on the short-range periodicity of each layer and their spatial misalignment. ...

Abstract: An experimental study is conducted to investigate the effects of inlet restriction (orifice) on flow boiling instability in a single horizontal microtube. The test-section is composed of a ...

Abstract: This paper describes an experimental program investigating the local–global interaction buckling of stainless steel I-section beams. Three alloys were included: austenitic S30401, ferritic S44330, and lean duplex S32101. ...

Abstract: The paper presents a detailed finite-element model used to study the local–global interaction buckling of stainless steel I-section beams. The model was constructed with the commercial software package

Abstract: Traditional vibrating cable methods usually omit the influence of the bending stiffness of anchor threaded rods when measuring the cable force in suspension bridge tunnel-type anchorage, causing a great deviation in the ...

Abstract: To explore the seismic response, influence mechanism, and failure of long-span spatial structures with three-dimensional seismic excitations in a strong earthquake, 1/6-scale shaking-table tests of single-layer cylindrical ...

Abstract: Due to the inherent deformability of continuum robots (CRs), closed-loop control strategies of CRs come with some challenges, including sensor integration within a limited dimension and uncertainties with the CR system. ...

Abstract: The method used in biomechanical modeling for finite element method (FEM) analysis needs to deliver accurate results. There are currently two solutions used in FEM modeling for biomedical model of human bone from computerized ...

Abstract: This paper presents a novel and efficient method for generating three-dimensional (3D) mesoscale structures of concrete using the discrete element method (DEM). The proposed approach enables the flexible and precise ...

Abstract: The research reported in this paper compares the soil characteristics in terms of their microbial structures and activities under several pervious pavements. Due to differences in texture, construction, and permeable ...
