RISRoman Concrete Vaulting in the Great Hall of Trajan’s Markets: Structural Evaluation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An in-depth structural analysis is used to explore the design and functionality of the Great Hall of Trajan’s Markets (110 CE), a large Imperial monument cross vaulted in unreinforced Roman concrete. Following a combined ...
Computational Model for the Transition From Peristaltic to Pulsatile Flow in the Embryonic Heart Tube
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Early in development, the heart is a single muscle-wrapped tube without formed valves. Yet survival of the embryo depends on the ability of this tube to pump blood at steadily increasing rates ...
Viscoelastic Material Properties of the Myocardium and Cardiac Jelly in the Looping Chick Heart
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Accurate material properties of developing embryonic tissues are a crucial factor in studies of the mechanics of morphogenesis. In the present work, we characterize the viscoelastic material ...
Discussion of “<i>Example Cost Of 3‐D Fem for Underground Openings</i>” by Charles W. Schwartz, Amr S. Azzouz, and Herbert H. Einstein (September, 1982)

Automatic Generation of User Material Subroutines for Biomechanical Growth Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The analysis of the biomechanics of growth and remodeling in soft tissues requires the formulation of specialized pseudoelastic constitutive relations. The nonlinear finite element analysis package ...
