Flexible support material maintains disc height and supports the formation of hydrated tissue engineered intervertebral discs in vivo

open access: yesJOR Spine
Background Mechanical augmentation upon implantation is essential for the long‐term success of tissue‐engineered intervertebral discs (TE‐IVDs). Previous studies utilized stiffer materials to fabricate TE‐IVD support structures.

Upcycling Compact Discs for Flexible and Stretchable Bioelectronic Applications

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Abstract Electronic waste is a global issue brought about by the short lifespan of electronics. Viable methods to relieve the inundated disposal system by repurposing the enormous amount of electronic waste remain elusive. Inspired by the need for sustainable solutions, this study resulted in a multifaceted approach to upcycling ...

A Balancing Method for Multi-Disc Flexible Rotors without Trial Weights

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
Rotor dynamic balancing is a classical problem. Traditional balancing methods such as the influence coefficient method and the modal balancing method, have low balancing efficiency because they need to run many times to add trial weights.

The critical influence of some �tiny� geometrical details on the stress field in a Brazilian Disc with a central notch of finite width and length

open access: yesFracture and Structural Integrity, 2022
The role of some geometrical characteristics of the notches machined in circular discs, in order to determine the mode-I fracture toughness of brittle materials, is discussed. The study is implemented both analytically and numerically.

Investigation of the torsional stiffness of flexible disc coupling

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2017
Calculation of flexible coupling torsional stiffness is required when analyzing the torsional vibrations of the reciprocating machinery train. While having the lowest torsional stiffness of all the elements of the train, flexible coupling has a significant influence on the natural frequencies of torsional vibration.

Numerical and Experimental Investigations of Coupling Effects in Anisotropic Elastic Rotors

open access: yesInternational Journal of Rotating Machinery, 1999
It is known that in elastic disc-shaft systems in particular, the one-nodal-diameter mode of the discs can be highly coupled with the bending modes of the shaft.
