A Morphing Deployable Mechanism for Re-Entry Capsule Aeroshell
Morphing technology is increasingly emerging as a novel and alternative approach for performing the controlled re-entry and precise landing of space vehicles by using adaptive aeroshell structure designs. This work is intended as a preliminary conceptual

De-Bonding Numerical Characterization and Detection in Aeronautic Multi-Element Spars
Structural health monitoring has multifold aims. Concerning composite structures, the main objectives are perhaps reducing costs by shifting from scheduled to on-demand maintenance and reducing weight by removing redundant precautions as the insertion of

A CAI study on transition zones of conventional and Double-Double laminates
Laminate-thickness tapering opportunities of Double-Double (DD) laminates are unique, compared to conventional laminates (denoted as Quad) in aerospace, which are typically composed of 0°, 45°, −45°, 90°plies.

Abstract Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) is an autosomal recessive hemoglobinopathy affecting millions of individuals worldwide. The clinical expression and psychosocial burden of SCD vary widely across geographical, cultural, and healthcare system contexts, underscoring the need for setting‐specific approaches to assessment.

ABSTRACT Neuroblastoma is the most common extracranial solid tumor in early childhood. Its clinical behavior is highly variable, ranging from spontaneous regression to fatal outcome despite intensive treatment. The International Society of Pediatric Oncology Europe Neuroblastoma Group (SIOPEN) Radiology and Nuclear Medicine Specialty Committees ...

Specific Modeling Issues on an Adaptive Winglet Skeleton
Morphing aeronautical systems may be used for a number of aims, ranging from improving performance in specific flight conditions, to keeping the optimal efficiency over a certain parameters domain instead of confining it to a single point, extending the ...

ABSTRACT Primary lung carcinomas and bronchial carcinoid tumors (BC) are very rare malignancies in childhood. While typical BC and mucoepidermoid carcinomas are mostly low‐grade, localized tumors with a more favorable prognosis than in adults, necessitating avoidance of overtreatment, adenocarcinomas of the lung are often diagnosed at advanced disease ...

Experimental study on how free-edge effects impede CTE measurements
The present paper is focussed on the experimental quantification of free-edge effects and their relevance when laminates’ coefficients of thermal expansion (CTEs) are determined by means of thermo-mechanical analysis (TMA).
