Effective Strengthening of RC Beams Using Bamboo-Fibre-Reinforced Polymer: A Finite-Element Analysis
Fibers, 2023 This paper presents a finite-element model of the structural behaviour of reinforced concrete (RC) beams with and without openings externally strengthened with bamboo-fibre-reinforced composite (BFRC) plates.

Scattering by flexural phonons in suspended graphene under back gate induced strain [PDF]
, 2012 We have studied electron scattering by out-of-plane (flexural) phonon modes in doped suspended graphene and its effect on charge transport. In the free-standing case (absence of strain) the flexural branch shows a quadratic dispersion relation, which ...

Venting in the comparative study of flexural ultrasonic transducers to improve resilience at elevated environmental pressure levels [PDF]
, 2020 The classical form of a flexural ultrasonic transducer is a piezoelectric ceramic disc bonded to a circular metallic membrane. This ceramic induces vibration modes of the membrane for the generation and detection of ultrasound.

On the path to a new generation of cement-based composites through the use of lignocellulosic micro/nanofibers [PDF]
, 2019 Due to its high biocompatibility, bio-degradability, and low cost, cellulose finds application in disparate areas of research. Here we focus our attention on the potential applications of cellulose nanofiber in cement-basedmaterials for the building ...

A nonlinear macroelement formulation for the seismic analysis of masonry buildings [PDF]
, 2017 A macroelement is presented for the nonlinear dynamic analysis of masonry structures under seismic actions. The macroelement, developed in the framework of the equivalent frame model, has a force-based formulation and accounts for flexural and shear ...

Flexure of cranial sutures [PDF]
Journal of Biomechanics, 1971 Beam samples containing cranial sutures were prepared from embalmed and unem- balmed cranial bone and were tested to determine their flexural stiffness and strength. With the aid of layered beam theory, the flexural stiffnesses of beams containing cranial sutures were compared to hypothetical layered cranial bone beams which did not contain sutures ...

Limits of flexural wave absorption by open lossy resonators: reflection and transmission problems [PDF]
, 2019 The limits of flexural wave absorption by open lossy resonators are analytically and numerically reported in this work for both the reflection and transmission problems. An experimental validation for the reflection problem is presented.
