Deflection‐based assessment of residual prestress in simply‐supported bridges accounting for creep variability

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Several test methods have been proposed in the literature for measuring the level of residual prestress, most of them involving either semi‐ or fully destructive techniques for local measurements which could be highly sensitive to boundary conditions and execution details.

A Chebyshev Spectral Method with Null Space Approach for Boundary-Value Problems of Euler-Bernoulli Beam

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2018
We proposed a Chebyshev spectral method with a null space approach for investigating the boundary-value problem of a nonprismatic Euler-Bernoulli beam with generalized boundary or interface conditions.

Multiscale Modelling of Frame Structures With Lattice‐Like Mesostructures Using Finite Beam Elements at the Macro and Meso Level

open access: yesProceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 4, December 2026.
ABSTRACT In this contribution, we present a FE2${\rm FE}^2$ model for shear‐flexible beams with a lattice‐like meso structure. The meso structure consists of a network of beams. The meso ‐ and macroscale are coupled by means of the Hill–Mandel condition.

Exploring the Use and Impact of Composite Materials in Robotics: A Systematic Review

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 6, Page 4037-4060, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Lightweight and high‐strength materials are important in robotics, as structural design impacts efficiency, payload capacity, and energy consumption. Composite materials, with their superior stiffness‐to‐weight ratios and multifunctional properties, offer clear advantages over conventional metals and polymers.

Variable Stiffness Flexure Structures Enabled by Phase‐Change Gallium and Adhesive Interfacial Locking for Soft Robotic Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 16, 19 August 2026.
A flexure‐based variable stiffness structure is developed by integrating phase‐change modulation and adhesive interfacial locking of gallium. The design enables a wide stiffness variability, transitioning from soft, flexible behavior to rigid, load‐supporting performance.
