Mechanical Behavior of the Alkali-Treated Ichu Fiber-Cementitious Matrix Interface Through Experimental Tests, Numerical, and Analytical Models

open access: yesJournal of Natural Fibers, 2022
The interaction properties between natural fiber and matrix play an important role in the mechanical performance of composite materials. The adhesion properties and the mechanical interaction between an Ichu fiber (Stipa obtusa) treated with sodium ...

About buckling calculus of straight bars on elastic environment by Transfer-Matrix Method (TMM) for dental implants

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
The paper presents a relatively simple and elegant analytical calculus of critical buckling force for a straight bar, one-end embedded and other end free, with an axial compression force F, using the Transfer-Matrix Method (TMM).

Method to Control the Deformation of Anti-Slide Piles in Zhenzilin Landslide

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Anti-slide piles were used in the region of the Zhenzilin landslide in Sichuan, China. The horizontal displacement of these piles exceeds specifications. Deterioration in bedrock properties may cause deformation, thereby causing landslide destabilization.

Liquid Level Sensor with Two FBGs Embedded in a PDMS Diaphragm: Analysis of the Linearity and Sensitivity

open access: yesSensors, 2022
This paper presents a fiber optic, liquid level sensor system based on a pair of fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs), embedded in a circular silicone (PDMS—polydimethylsiloxane) rubber diaphragm.

Iterated Forcing and Elementary Embeddings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
I give a survey of some forcing techniques which are useful in the study of large cardinals and elementary embeddings. The main theme is the problem of extending a (possibly generic) elementary embedding of the universe to a larger domain, which is typically a generic extension of the ground model by some iterated forcing construction.

A Novel Force-Sensing Smart Textile: Inserting Silicone-Embedded FBG Sensors into a Knitted Undergarment

open access: yesSensors, 2023
A number of textile-based fiber optic sensors have recently been proposed for the continuous monitoring of vital signs. However, some of these sensors are likely unsuitable for conducting direct measurements on the torso as they lack elasticity and are ...

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Force-directed embedding of scale-free networks in the hyperbolic plane

open access: yes, 2021
Force-directed drawing algorithms are the most commonly used approach to visualize networks. While they are usually very robust, the performance of Euclidean spring embedders decreases if the graph exhibits the high level of heterogeneity that typically occurs in scale-free real-world networks.
