The Bending Stiffness of the Trunk
Spine, 1986Much research is done on the physical properties of the isolated human spine. However, little knowledge exists about the relationship between the physical properties of an isolated spine and the physical properties of the whole trunk in vivo. The first part of this article is a literature review.

INEXTENSIBLE NETWORKS WITH BENDING STIFFNESS
The Quarterly Journal of Mechanics and Applied Mathematics, 1986Summary: The theory of inextensible networks, applicable to cloth or cable networks, is modified to take into account the bending stiffness of the fabric. It is assumed that each thread or cable carries a bending couple proportional to its curvature. The resulting continuum theory is a special form of finite-deformation plate theory.

The bending stiffness of the human tibia
Calcified Tissue Research, 1975The bending of isolated human cadaveric tibiae in the antero-posterior and medio-lateral planes was studied. It was found that the mean bending stiffness in the antero-posterior plan was 5.989 Nm/mm and in the medio-lateral plane 3.588 Nm/mm.

ELASTIC SHEETS WITH BENDING STIFFNESS
The Quarterly Journal of Mechanics and Applied Mathematics, 1992Summary: A theory of large deformations of elastic membranes with bending stiffness is formulated, by applying the minimum-energy principle to a strain-energy density that depends on the second derivatives of the deformation as well as the first derivatives. Controllable deformations are determined.

Designing the Bending Stiffness of 2D Material Heterostructures
Advanced Materials, 2021Abstract2D monolayers represent some of the most deformable inorganic materials, with bending stiffnesses approaching those of lipid bilayers. Achieving 2D heterostructures with similar properties would enable a new class of deformable devices orders of magnitude softer than conventional thin‐film electronics.

Bending Stiffness of a Crystalline Actin Bundle
Journal of Molecular Biology, 2004The acrosomal process of the sperm of the horseshoe crab (Limulus polyphemus) is a unique crystalline actin bundle, consisting of multiple actin filaments cross-linked by the actin-bundling protein, scruin. For successful fertilization, the acrosomal bundle must penetrate through a 30 microm thick jelly coat surrounding the egg and thus it must be ...

BENDING STIFFNESS OF CATHETERS AND GUIDE WIRES
Biomedizinische Technik/Biomedical Engineering, 2002An important property of catheters and guide wires to assess their pushability behavior is their bending stiffness. To measure bending stiffness, a new bending module with a new clamping device was developed. This module can easily be mounted in commercially available tensile testing equipment, where bending force and deflection due to the bending ...

A comparison of forefoot stiffness in running and running shoe bending stiffness
Journal of Biomechanics, 2005This study characterizes the stiffness of the human forefoot during running. The forefoot stiffness, defined as the ratio of ground reaction moment to angular deflection of the metatarsophalangeal joint, is measured for subjects running barefoot. The joint deflection is obtained from video data, while the ground reaction moment is obtained from force ...

Bending stiffness of a graphene sheet
Physical Mesomechanics, 2014The paper proposes a discrete mechanical model of monolayer graphene. A relation between parameters of the model and elastic characteristics of its equivalent continuum is derived by comparing the energy of small strains on micro- and macroscales. The relation allows one to determine the microscale interaction parameters from experimental data and ...

Coupled axial-bending dynamic stiffness matrix for beam elements
Computers and Structures, 2019 The dynamic stiffness matrix for beams which exhibit coupling between axial and bending deformations is developed from first principle so that their free vibration analysis can be carried out in an accurate and efficient manner.
