Anomalous Flexural Behaviors of Microtubules [PDF]

Biophysical Journal, 2012
Apparent controversies exist on whether the persistence length of microtubules depends on its contour length. This issue is particularly challenging from a theoretical point of view due to the tubular structure and strongly anisotropic material property of microtubules.

Behavior Analysis of a Flexure Hinge Array [PDF]

Mathematical Problems in Engineering, 2021
Compliant mechanisms have been well designed to reach an ultra-high accuracy in positioning systems. However, the displacement of compliant mechanisms is still a major problem that restricts practical applications. Hence, a new flexure hinge array (FHA) is proposed to improve its displacement in this article.

Flexural Behavior of a Novel Textile-Reinforced Polymer Concrete [PDF]

Polymers, 2022
Textile reinforced concrete (TRC) has gained attention from the construction industry due to its light weight, high tensile strength, design flexibility, corrosion resistance, and remarkably long service life. Some structural applications that utilize TRC components include precast panels, structural repair, waterproofing elements, and façades.

Flexural Behavior of Beams with Confinement

ACI Structural Journal, 1995
The principal aim of this paper is to examine, both theorelically and experimentally, the flexural behavior of structural concrete beams in which confinement stirrups have been introduced into the compression regions. The laboratory-based part of the investigation included 12 under-reinforced beams, eight of which had the concrete compression regions ...
