Flexural–torsional coupled vibration and buckling of thin-walled open section composite beams using shear-deformable beam theory [PDF]
A general analytical model based on shear-deformable beam theory has been developed to study the flexural–torsional coupled vibration and buckling of thin-walled open section composite beams with arbitrary lay-ups.

Large Stroke Performance Optimization of Spatial Flexure Hinges [PDF]
Flexure hinges inherently lose stiffness in supporting directions when deflected. In this paper a method is presented for optimizing the geometry of flexure hinges, while supporting stiffnesses are retained. These hinges are subjected to a load and deflected an angle of up to ±20°.

Investigation on Flexural Performance of RC Beams Flexurally Strengthened by Side-bonded CFRP Laminates [PDF]
It is an effective way to improve the flexural behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) members by externally bonded carbon fiber reinforcement polymer (CFRP) laminates on the soffit of the members. However, there is little investigation on flexural performance of RC beam flexurally strengthened by side-bonded FRP laminates.

Improving the performance of concrete using 3D fibres [PDF]
This paper examines whether 3D fibre reinforcement can improve the toughness and flexural strength of concrete, when compared to equal dosage of straight steel fibres. This work was carried out to determine structural qualities that may lead to potential
