Least-squares Smoothed Shape Functions for Constructing Field-Consistent Timoshenko Beam Elements

open access: yesCivil Engineering Dimension
This paper presents an approach for constructing field-consistent Timoshenko beam elements using least-squares smoothed (LSS) shape functions. The variational basis for shear strain redistribution is thoroughly explained, leading to the derivation of ...

Bending Fatigue Evaluation and Failure Modes of Ultra‐Thin Silicon Chips on Flexible Substrates

open access: yesFlexTech, Volume 2, Issue 2, Page 91-101, September 2026.
This study investigates the fatigue lifetime of 20‐μm‐thick chips under bending deformation. Three failure modes are identified: metal pad wearing, metal stress migration, and gold wire break. The underlying mechanisms are analyzed through micro‐scale characterization, and temperature effects on fatigue lifetime are explored.

Global instabilities of pyramidal trusses

open access: yesTrends in Computational and Applied Mathematics
This paper presents an exact analytical study of global instabilities in pyramidal trusses under large displacements. Using the stationarity of total potential energy and Green-Lagrange strain, non-linear equilibrium equations are derived for a 3-bar ...

Fully Coupled Electromagnetic‐Thermal‐Mechanical Model for Induction Heating of Thin Steel Sheets With the Presence of Thermal Buckling

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 127, Issue 16, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Large deformations can become an important issue in induction heating applications, especially for structures with low bending stiffness, such as thin sheets. In such cases, thermal expansion induces not only substantial in‐plane stresses but also out‐of‐plane buckling, which in turn strongly influences the electromagnetic field configuration.

Buckling Paradox And Anisotropic Plastic Plate Bifurcation [PDF]

open access: yesProgress in Canadian Mechanical Engineering, 2018
Anisotropic elastic/plastic plate bifurcation is investigated. The pre-bifurcation loading consists of biaxial stresses along ξν axes parallel to the sides of a simply supported rectangular plate: ννξξσασ=,11α−≤≤. The ξν axes are at an angle βwith the xy principal axes of anisotropy.

Hilltop buckling as the A and O in sensitivity analysis of the initial postbuckling behavior of elastic structures

open access: yesJournal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2009
The coincidence of a bifurcation point with a snap‐through point is called hilltop buckling. In this paper, it either serves as the starting point ‐ the ?

The Influence of Fault Rupture Velocity on Ground Motions and Building Demands in the Near‐Fault Region

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.
With the recent increases in measured ground motion records for large earthquakes, most notably the 2023 M7.8 Pazarcik earthquake in Türkiye, the potential for pervasive high velocity fault rupture propagation over an extensive fault length has been observed.

Thermal postbuckling analysis of FG-CNTRC doubly curved panels with elastically restrained edges using Reddy's higher order shear deformation theory

open access: yesVietnam Journal of Mechanics, 2020
For the first time, postbuckling behavior of thick doubly curved panels made of carbon nanotube reinforced composite (CNTRC), under preexisting external pressure and subjected to uniform temperature rise is analyzed in this paper. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs)

Post‐Miocene Transtensional Opening of the Northern Red Sea

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract The mechanism of opening, as well as the crustal characteristics of the northern Red Sea are subject of ongoing controversial scientific debate. With the objective of elucidating the nature of rifting in this area, a grid of 2D multi‐channel reflection seismic data was acquired off the Al Wajh carbonate platform (AWCP), and supplemented by ...
