Tuning Synthetic Semiflexible Networks by Bending Stiffness [PDF]
The mechanics of complex soft matter often cannot be understood in the classical physical frame of flexible polymers or rigid rods. The underlying constituents are semiflexible polymers, whose finite bending stiffness ($κ$) leads to non-trivial mechanical responses. A natural model for such polymers is the protein actin.

Characterization of ply mixing rules for non-symmetric forms of fully orthotropic laminates [PDF]
Stacking sequence listings are presented for fully orthotropic angle-ply laminates, with up to 21 plies, together with rules for mixing these sequences to form laminates containing any number of plies.

Effect of Rotor Geometry on Bending Stiffness Variation [PDF]
Bending stiffness variation (BSV) is a common problem causing vibration in large rotating machinery. BSV describes lateral bending stiffness and its variation as a function of the rotational angle. It has been observed that BSV causes excitation exactly twice per revolution, which leads to vibration problems, especially at half critical speed.

Vibration and buckling of thin-walled composite I-beams with arbitrary lay-ups under axial loads and end moments [PDF]
A finite element model with seven degrees of freedom per node is developed to study vibration and buckling of thin-walled composite I-beams with arbitrary lay-ups under constant axial loads and equal end moments.

Post-buckling behaviour of slender structures with a bi-linear bending moment-curvature relationship [PDF]
Certain classes of slender structures of complex cross-section or fabricated from specialised materials can exhibit a bi-linear bending moment–curvature relationship that has a strong influence on their global structural behaviour.

Bending Stiffness of the Lumbar Spine Subjected to Posteroanterior Manipulative Force [PDF]
This study measured the bending stiffness of the spine when it is subjected to posteroanterior mobilization force. The lumbar spine was modeled as an initially curved beam column supported over the rib cage and the pelvis.
