Enzymatic degradation of biopolymers in amorphous and molten states: mechanisms and applications

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This review explains how polymer morphology and thermal state shape enzymatic degradation pathways, comparing amorphous and molten biopolymer structures. By integrating structure–reactivity principles with insights from thermodynamics and enzyme engineering, it highlights mechanisms that enable efficient polymer breakdown.

What Do Large Language Models Know About Materials?

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
If large language models (LLMs) are to be used inside the material discovery and engineering process, they must be benchmarked for the accurateness of intrinsic material knowledge. The current work introduces 1) a reasoning process through the processing–structure–property–performance chain and 2) a tool for benchmarking knowledge of LLMs concerning ...

Fabric Tensors in Bone Mechanics

open access: yesEngineering Transactions, 2015
Mechanical properties of cancellous and cortical bone have been investigated. The fabric tensors used in the relevant literature have been discussed. Nonlinear elastic and elastic-perfectly plastic constitutive relationships have been proposed within the

Analytical and numerical study of some variants of Koiter's linear model of thin shells [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Koiter's linear model for thin shells is obtained from the classic equations of the three-dimensional linear elasticity with the Kirchhoff-Love hypothesis; the variety of formulations of this model is based on the precision of the analysis carried out ...

Hybrid Auxetic Architectures: Integrating Curvature‐Driven Design for Enhanced Mechanical Tunability and Structural Performance

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Curvature‐tuned auxetic lattices are designed, fabricated, and mechanically characterized to reveal how geometric curvature governs stretchability, stress redistribution, and Poisson's ratio evolution. Photoelastic experiments visualize stress pathways, while hyperelastic simulations quantify deformation mechanics.

The relaxed linear micromorphic continuum: well-posedness of the static problem and relations to the gauge theory of dislocations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this paper we consider the equilibrium problem in the relaxed linear model of micromorphic elastic materials. The basic kinematical fields of this extended continuum model are the displacement $u\in \mathbb{R}^3$ and the non-symmetric micro-distortion

Discontinuous Galerkin approximations in computational mechanics: hybridization, exact geometry and degree adaptivity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Discontinuous Galerkin (DG) discretizations with exact representation of the geometry and local polynomial degree adaptivity are revisited. Hybridization techniques are employed to reduce the computational cost of DG approximations and devise the ...

Advancing Research on Biomaterials and Biological Materials with Scanning Electron Microscopy under Environmental and Low Vacuum Conditions

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Herein, environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM) is discussed as a powerful extension of conventional SEM for life sciences. By combining high‐resolution imaging with variable pressure and humidity, ESEM allows the analysis of untreated biological materials, supports in situ monitoring of hydration‐driven changes, and advances the functional ...

THE REFINED THEORY OF ELASTIC PLATES AS ASYMPTOTIC APPROACH OF 3D PROBLEM

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
The refined theory of elastic thin and thick plates is constructed by the asymptotic method for reducing three-dimensional (3D) equations of linear elasticity to two-dimensional ones without the use of any assumptions.
