Ageing behaviour of folded joints produced by fusion bonding of an outer metal sheet and an inner organic sheet [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Joining Processes
Adhesive hemming is a process used in the automotive industry to join two metal sheets with good structural performance and good optical appearance of the rim. A new approach is to replace the inner metal sheet by a fibre-reinforced thermoplastic polymer

Folded Sheet Versus Transparent Sheet Models for Human Symmetry Judgments

open access: yesSymmetry, 2011
As a contribution to the mysteries of human symmetry perception, reaction time data were collected on the detection of symmetry or repetition violations, in the context of short term visual memory studies. The histograms for reaction time distributions are rather narrow in the case of symmetry judgments.

Epithelial sheet folding induces lumen formation by Madin-Darby canine kidney cells in a collagen gel. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Lumen formation is important for morphogenesis; however, an unanswered question is whether it involves the collective migration of epithelial cells. Here, using a collagen gel overlay culture method, we show that Madin-Darby canine kidney cells migrated ...

Comparative Study of Crumpling and Folding of Thin Sheets [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2013
Crumpling and folding of paper are at rst sight very di erent ways of con ning thin sheets in a small volume: the former one is random and stochastic whereas the latest one is regular and deterministic. Nevertheless, certain similarities exist. Crumpling is surprisingly ine cient: a typical crumpled paper ball in a waste-bin consists of as much as 80 ...

Many dissimilar NusG protein domains switch between α-helix and β-sheet folds

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Folded proteins are composed of secondary structures, α-helices and β-sheets, that are generally assumed to be stable. Here, the authors combine computational prediction with experimental validation to show that many sequence-diverse NusG protein domains

Parametric Creative Design of Building Free-forms Roofed with Transformed Shells Introducing Architect’s and Civil Engineer’s Responsible Artistic Concepts

open access: yesBuildings, 2019
The article concerns a parametric description of unconventional building forms roofed with folded sheeting transformed elastically into shells. The description supports the designer in the search for attractive forms and a rational use of materials.

Transformed Shell Roof Structures as the Main Determinant in Creative Shaping Building Free Forms Sensitive to Man-Made and Natural Environments

open access: yesBuildings, 2019
The article presents author’s propositions for shaping free forms of buildings sensitive to harmonious incorporation into built or natural environments. Complex folded structures of buildings roofed with regular shell structures are regarded as the

Responsive Parametric Building Free Forms Determined by Their Elastically Transformed Steel Shell Roofs

open access: yesBuildings, 2019
The article concerns the unconventional architectural forms of buildings roofed with transformed shells made up of thin-walled steel fold sheets, and a parametric description of how they are shaped.

Research on Mechanical Properties of V-Type Folded Core Sandwich Structures

open access: yesAerospace, 2022
A folded core is a three-dimensional configuration formed by folding a flat sheet of paper. Similar to foam and honeycomb, folded cores are widely used in aerospace as the cores for sandwich structures due to their excellent mechanical properties and ...

Periodic folding of viscous sheets

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2003
The periodic folding of a sheet of viscous fluid falling upon a rigid surface is a common fluid mechanical instability that occurs in contexts ranging from food processing to geophysics. Asymptotic thin-layer equations for the combined stretching-bending deformation of a two-dimensional sheet are solved numerically to determine the folding frequency as
