Abstract: By utilizing the general solutions derived for the plies with arbitrary fiber orientations under uniform axial strain (Huang and Chen, 1994), the explicit solutions of the edge-delamination stress ...

Abstract: The longitudinally inclined (the tunnel excavation direction) ground surface often appearing at the shallow tunnel entrance and exit zone threatens and reduces the tunnel face stability. However, studies on this stability ...

Abstract: Evaluations of tendon mechanical behavior based on biochemical and structural arrangement have implications for designing tendon specific treatment modalities or replacement strategies. In addition ...
