Consolidation and Forced Elasticity in Double-Network Hydrogels
Gels, 2023 This paper discusses two observations that are unique with respect to the mechanics of double network (DN) hydrogels, forced elasticity driven by water diffusion and consolidation, which are analogous to the so-called Gough–Joule effects in rubbers.

FINITE ELEMENT MODELLING AND ANALYSIS OF CONCRETE CONFINED BY STIRRUPS IN SQUARE RC COLUMNS [PDF]
Civil Engineering Journal, 2016 Concrete confined by stirrups with greater ductility than unconfined concrete has been used widely in reinforced concrete (RC) structures and its behavior is the classic topic. As the computer power is improving, an increasing number of modelling studies

Negative linear compressibility in confined dilatating systems [PDF]
The Journal of Chemical Physics, 2006 The role of a matrix response to a fluid insertion is analyzed in terms of a perturbation theory and Monte Carlo simulations applied to a hard sphere fluid in a slit of fluctuating density-dependent width. It is demonstrated that a coupling of the fluid-slit repulsion, spatial confinement, and the matrix dilatation acts as an effective fluid-fluid ...

Confinement and compression of an oligomer brush [PDF]
Biointerphases, 2010 Self-assembled monolayers and oligomer brushes confined between two parallel plates show compressional forces that are nonmonotonic as a function of plate separation. In a realistic model of short alkanethiols, based on the rotationally isomeric state model with parameters from ab initio calculations, the authors show that nonmonotonic forces arise ...

Stress-Strain Model for Confined Fiber-reinforced Concrete under Axial Compression [PDF]
Archives of Civil Engineering, 2020 Confinement in concrete can improve the descending branch of the stress-strain relationship of concrete. The addition of steel fiber in concrete can also improve the descending branch of the stress-strain relationship of concrete.

Confining and compressing the atom [PDF]
The European Physical Journal D, 2020 Abstract A review of effects due to the confinement and compression of atoms is presented. It is argued that they provide new insights into the properties of atoms and, in particular, into their interactions with the microscopic environment.

Axial Compression Behavior of FRP Confined Laminated Timber Columns under Cyclic Loadings
Buildings, 2022 Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) has been proved to be effective to improve the structural strength and ductility for column structures. An experimental study was conducted to investigate the compressive performance of FRP confined glued-laminated timber ...
