Abstract Purpose This study aimed to characterize a mucoadhesive gel containing nystatin (NYS) or chlorhexidine (CHX), complexed or not with β‐cyclodextrin (βCD), and evaluate its rheological and mucoadhesive properties, antifungal efficacy, cytocompatibility, and collagen synthesis potential.

Computational analysis to assess hemodynamic forces in descending thoracic aortic aneurysms
Abstract figure legend Left: Pre‐processing. First, we perform the segmentation of the Computer Tomography angiorgraphy (angio‐CT) scans of a healthy patient, obtaining the surface of a healthy thoracic aorta with a Type III aortic arch. Then, we build nine ideal configurations with Descending Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm (DTAA), varying the aortic arch ...

Abstract figure legend Using a multiscale computational model of left ventricular electromechanics, we investigated how sarcomere dynamics influence the end‐systolic pressure‐volume (ESPV) relationship in ejecting beats compared to isovolumetric beats.

Nonlinear Response‐History Analyses of Masonry and Mixed Structures With HybriDFEM
ABSTRACT The hybrid discrete‐finite element (HybriDFEM) method, previously developed to perform static and modal analysis in discrete and coupled discrete‐finite element models, is extended to nonlinear response‐history analyses. The equations of motion for the HybriDFEM model are solved through various numerical time‐integration schemes, both explicit

ABSTRACT The rapid development of new railway networks and the aging of existing infrastructure in seismic‐prone regions continue to motivate the need for efficient methods to simulate the dynamic behavior of coupled train track structure systems. While detailed train–structure interaction (TSI) models can capture complex mechanisms, they are often too

Aspects of Parameter Identification for a Micromorphic Continuum applied to a Cold‐Box Sand
ABSTRACT This work is concerned with the modeling of a cold‐box sand, a composition of sand grains and a resin binder. To this end, experiments are performed, which show the following characteristics: localization phenomena in the form of a shear band, softening behavior in the force‐displacement curve, and asymmetric behavior for compression and ...

On the Performance and Convergence of PINNs for Problems in Linear Elasticity
ABSTRACT Physics‐informed neural networks (PINNs) have emerged as a promising approach for solving partial differential equations by embedding physical laws directly into the loss function. However, their performance characteristics for problems in computational mechanics remain insufficiently understood.

Two Scale FE‐FFT‐Based Modeling of Cancellous Bone
ABSTRACT Osteoporosis is characterized by a loss of volume percentage of cortical bone, which reduces the loading capacity of this organ and increases its likelihood for fractures. The disease has the highest prevalence of any bone disease worldwide, with a particularly high incidence among the elderly.

Coulomb branch algebras via symplectic cohomology
Abstract Let (M¯,ω)$(\bar{M}, \omega)$ be a compact symplectic manifold with convex boundary and c1(TM¯)=0$c_1(T\bar{M})=0$. Suppose that (M¯,ω)$(\bar{M}, \omega)$ is equipped with a convex Hamiltonian G$G$‐action for some connected, compact Lie group G$G$.
