Abstract: In a recent investigation of microstructural effects in finite periodic multilayers, we have shown that under Mode I loading, the crack-opening displacement approaches that of the same crack in ...

Abstract: In Part I of this paper, elasticity solutions were developed for finite multilayered domains, weakened by aligned cracks, that are in a state of generalized plane deformation under two types ...

Abstract: Elasticity solutions are developed for finite multilayered domains weakened by aligned cracks that are in a state of generalized plane deformation under two types of end constraints. Multilayered ...

Abstract: The concrete-damaged plasticity (CDP) model with proposed material properties replicated the observed deflection and strain responses of three experimentally tested I-girders and was determined to be consistent for different ...

Abstract: The effects of porosity architecture and volume fraction on the homogenized elastic moduli and elastic-plastic response of perforated thin metal sheets are investigated under three fundamental ...

Abstract: Iron oxide magnetic nanomaterials are among the most widely used nanomaterials in nanomedicine. Due to their magnetic and structural properties, iron oxide magnetic nanotubes are extremely attractive ...

Abstract: This report discusses the compatibility of hematite nanotubes with PC12 cells and the use of these hematite nanotubes to deliver nerve growth factor (NGF) for the differentiation and growth of ...

Abstract: Magnetic nanotubes hold the potential for neuroscience applications because of the feasibility of controlling the orientation or movement of magnetic nanotubes and their ability to deliver chemicals ...
