Reduced Volume Approach to Evaluate Biaxial Bubbled Slabs’ Resistance to Punching Shear
BuildingsThe bubbled slab, a type of reinforced concrete (RC) slab with plastic voids, is an innovative design that employs a biaxial distribution of voiding formers within the slab to reduce the slab’s self-weight while preserving a load-carrying capacity that ...

Field Response and Switching Times in Biaxial Nematics
, 2008 We study by means of virtual molecular dynamics computer experiments the response of a bulk biaxial nematic to an applied external field and, in particular, the relative speed of reorientation of the principal director axis and of the secondary one ...

Anisotropic Initial Damage and Its Effect on Tensile Response of Plain Concrete
International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Damage is often described as isotropic, implying that a scalar value describes its initial state. However, the prior micro‐cracking pattern at points of an existing building, that is, the initial damage, may be oriented by a preload. The degradation of the Volume Element due to oriented preloads shall be described as anisotropic and ...

How Stress Biaxiality Controls Crack Morphology and Apparent Fracture Energy of Dikes and Sills
Geophysical Research LettersThe emplacement of dikes and sills plays a crucial role in crustal mechanics. The parameter used to describe their resistance to propagation, fracture energy, remains controversial.

Biaxial Studies of Skin\u27s Mechanical Properties
, 2011 In this research, biaxial tests are performed on 12 pieces of abdomen skin specimen from rats. The results show that skin possesses anisotropy, non-linearity and hysteresis. To explain the stress-strain relationship in terms of the strain-energy function

Evaluation of the Biaxial Mechanical Properties of the Mitral Valve Anterior Leaflet Under Physiological Loading Conditions [PDF]
, 2005 It is a fundamental assumption that a repaired mitral valve (MV) or MV replacement should mimic the functionality of the native MV as closely as possible.

Microstructure Evolution of Dilute Mo-Re Alloy Tubes under Biaxial Stress
Yuanzineng kexue jishuDilute Mo-Re alloy is one of the candidate materials for reactor core cladding, so its high-temperature stability performance, which maintains structural stability under high-temperature biaxial stress, is the most important performance indicator.

Small, EarlyView.Monolithic cholesteric liquid crystal elastomers simultaneously generate color and sound under electrically programmed stimuli. Low‐frequency electric fields modulate the helical pitch to produce tunable structural colors, while high‐frequency excitation induces membrane vibration for acoustic emission.
