RISDevelopment of a Synthetic Rock Mass Model and Its Application in Simulating the Strength Behavior of Fractured Coal Masses in 3D
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Abstract The complex fracture network and stress state make the mechanical properties of coal
mass very complicated, and the strength of the coal mass is difficult to determine
via direct measurement. Therefore, the ...
Bio Inspired Fast Actuation by Mechanical Instability of Thermoresponding Hydrogel Structures
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Inspired by natural plants, thermoresponding hydrogel (TRH) structures have been designed to trigger mechanical instability with fast actuation. Tough Caalginate/poly(Nisopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) hydrogel has been ...
