An Explicit, Compact, and Rotation‐Agnostic Formulation for Equivalent Nodal Loads for Point‐Loaded Beams

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 127, Issue 7, 15 April 2026.
ABSTRACT In time‐marching dynamical simulations, treatment of contact forces in deformable bodies represented by finite element meshes requires a compromise between simulation fidelity and computational costs. External forces directly evaluated at the mesh nodes offer better computational performance at the cost of modelling fidelity.

Vibrational Energy Flow Analysis of Corrected Flexural Waves in Timoshenko Beam – Part I: Theory of an Energetic Model

Shock and Vibration, 2006
In this paper, an energy flow model is developed to analyze transverse vibration including the effects of rotatory inertia as well as shear distortion, which are very important in the Timoshenko beam transversely vibrating in the medium-to-high frequency

SIMILARITY SOLUTIONS AND CONSERVATION LAWS FOR THE BEAM EQUATIONS: A COMPLETE STUDY

Acta Polytechnica, 2020
We study the similarity solutions and we determine the conservation laws of various forms of beam equations, such as Euler-Bernoulli, Rayleigh and Timoshenko-Prescott.

Variational Formulation of Curved Beams in Global Coordinates

, 2013
In this paper we derive a variational formulation for a linear curved beam which is natively expressed in global Cartesian coordinates. During derivation the beam midline is assumed to be implicitly described by a vector distance function which ...

A Laminating Strategy to Manyfold Enhance the Elastic Stretchability of Stretchable Electronics

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 19, 2 April 2026.
We propose a laminating strategy that laminates a thick‐polymer layer onto the thin‐ribbon metallic structure. Using serpentine structures on soft and hard substrates as representative cases, this approach increases elastic stretchability by 3.5‐fold and 2.3‐fold.

Critical Velocity of High-Performance Yarn Transversely Impacted by Razor Blade

Fibers, 2018
A ballistic parameter that influences the ballistic performances of a high-performance yarn is the critical velocity. The critical velocity is defined as the projectile striking velocity that causes instantaneous rupture of the yarn upon impact.

Logarithmic stability in determining two coefficients in a dissipative wave equation. Extensions to clamped Euler-Bernoulli beam and heat equations

, 2015
We are concerned with the inverse problem of determining both the potential and the damping coefficient in a dissipative wave equation from boundary measurements. We establish stability estimates of logarithmic type when the measurements are given by the

Numerical Investigation of a Dual‐Mode Shape Memory Alloy Stent Enabling Secondary Expansion via Focused Ultrasound: A Potential Strategy for Correcting In‐Stent Restenosis

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 6, 18 March 2026.
This study demonstrates a novel noninvasive strategy to treat in‐stent restenosis using focused ultrasound. A shape memory alloy stent initially expands at body temperature. If restenosis occurs, targeted ultrasound heating thermally actuates the stent, enabling a secondary expansion to reopen the blocked vessel, offering a potential alternative to ...

Compression‐Tension‐Asymmetry and Stiffness Nonlinearity of Collagen‐Matrigel Composite Hydrogels

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 9, 6 March 2026.
Self‐assembled collagen hydrogel matrices are widely used in tissue engineering applications. These matrices stiffen and contract laterally under tension due to fiber alignment and soften and collapse under compression due to fiber buckling. It is demonstrated that filler materials, such as Matrigel, linearize the mechanical behavior of collagen ...
