Abstract: A fluid–structure interaction-based biomechanical model of the entire left anterior descending coronary artery is developed from in vivo imaging via the finite element method in this paper. Included in this investigation ...

Abstract: This paper aims at analyzing the size-dependent nonlinear dynamical behavior of a geometrically imperfect microbeam made of a functionally graded (FG) material, taking into account the longitudinal, transverse, and rotational ...

Abstract: This paper presents complete nonlinear electromechanical models for energy harvesting devices consisting of multiple piezoelectric bimorphs (PBs) connected in parallel and series, for the first time. The proposed model is ...
