Abstract Re-entrant auxetic lattices exhibiting negative Poisson’s ratio behaviour are attractive for lightweight energy-absorbing applications. However, traditional re-entrant and hexagonal auxetic designs often exhib...

Geopolymers are known for its high compressive but low tensile strength due to its brittle nature, which restricts the use of geopolymers as structural material. It is important to enhance their mechanical performance by...

Abstract Cast iron alloys with low production cost and quite good mechanical properties are widely used in the automotive industry. To study the mechanical behavior of a typical ductile cast iron (GJS-450) with nodular g...

Abstract It can be known from a large number of research results that improving the dispersibility of CNTs can effectively optimize the mechanical properties of the corresponding metal matrix composites. However, the cru...

Abstract With the growing interest in utilizing Mg and austenitic stainless steel (ASS) in the automotive sector, joining them together in three-sheet configuration is inevitable. However, achieving this task presents co...

Duplex stainless steels fabricated by Laser Bed Powder Fusion (LPBF) exhibit refined and metastable microstructures that can be particularly sensitive to intermediate-temperature exposure. In this study, the effect of 47...

Objectives The aim of the study was to characterise the three-dimensional external and internal morphology of the feline tibia, including bone length, external and internal diameters, cortical thickness, cancellous bone ...

Abstract A first-principles study of the structural, electronic, magnetic, mechanical, and optical properties of the double perovskite Ca₂GaAsO₆ is presented using density functional theory with the Perdew-Burke-Ernz...

Through numerical simulation based on the particle flow method, DEM numerical test samples are generated in accordance with the results of laboratory tests on standard sand. Using gravity deposition modelling of irregula...

The sealed loading environment during the compaction process prevents the mechanical behavior of cyclotetramethylenetetranitramine (HMX) under compression from being fully understood. Elucidating the mechanical behavior ...

Abstract Biological soft tissues manipulation, including conventional (mechanical) and nonconventional (laser, waterjet and ultrasonic) processes, is critically required in most surgical innervations. However, the soft t...

OBJETIVO: identificar os fatores obstétricos e neonatais associados ao desfecho de displasia broncopulmonar em pacientes com amniorrexe prematura no pré-termo. MÉTODOS: foram analisados 213 prontuários do Instituto F...

Abstract 6082-T6 aluminum alloy is a commonly used aluminum alloy material in the field of rail transit because of its good molding properties, high mechanical properties, excellent corrosion resistance and weldability. ...

Constructing backfill walls adjacent to the yield coal pillar can effectively enhance its stability. The backfill and coal pillar form a synergistic bearing structure that jointly maintains the stability of the overlying...

The influence of chemo-mechanical activation of dispersed carbon fibers in their turbostrate and quasicrystalline structure in terms of modeling frictional contact has been researched. It has been shown that change of pa...

ABSTRACT Background Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD), a prevalent spinal disorder, is closely associated with abnormal mechanical stress. The nucleus pulposus (NP), annulus fibrosus (AF), and cartilaginous endplat...

Preface to the Fourth Edition. 1 Biomechanics as an Interdiscipline. 1.0 Introduction. 1.1 Measurement, Description, Analysis, and Assessment. 1.2 Biomechanics and its Relationship with Physiology and Anatomy. 1.3 Scope ...

BACKGROUND: Coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) is associated with diffuse lung damage. Glucocorticoids may modulate inflammation-mediated lung injury and thereby reduce progression to respiratory failure and death. METH...

Importance: There is limited information describing the presenting characteristics and outcomes of US patients requiring hospitalization for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Objective: To describe the clinical charac...

BACKGROUND: Traditional approaches to mechanical ventilation use tidal volumes of 10 to 15 ml per kilogram of body weight and may cause stretch-induced lung injury in patients with acute lung injury and the acute respira...
