Rotational Stiffening Performance of Roof Folded Plates in Torsion Tests and the Stiffening Effect of Roof Folded Plates on the Lateral Buckling of H Beams in Steel Structures

Buildings
Non-structural members, such as roofs and ceilings, become affixed to main beams that are known as structural members. When such main beams experience bending or compressive forces that lead to lateral buckling, non-structural members may act to restrain

A Superlubricated Magnetically Steerable Microcatheter with Integrated Optical and Fluidic Channels

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A magnetically steerable microcatheter with integrated optical and fluidic channels is developed for multifunctional navigation in tortuous anatomical environments. A surface‐grafted hydrogel coating enables low‐friction actuation. The device demonstrates stable light and fluid delivery during magnetic manipulation, offering a compact platform for ...

Hierarchical Artificial Muscle with Nonlinear Elasticity for Antagonistic and Cyclic Robotics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We construct hierarchical muscles by plying nylon fibers around a heating wire. The hierarchical muscle shows a J‐shaped passive curve, which shows benefit in antagonistic muscle pair and work accumulation mechanism. We also develop a computational, first‐principle model to understand the physics of both active actuation stroke and passive J‐curve ...

Machine learning models for the elastic-critical buckling moment of sinusoidal corrugated web beam

Results in Engineering
The torsional stiffness of I-beams with sinusoidal corrugated web is higher than that of flat web beams and the accuracy of the available hand-calculation methods to determine the elastic critical lateral-torsional buckling moment depends on the ...

A Study on the Effect of Adjacent Segments of a Steel l-Beam with Lateral Supports on Its Critical Moment

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2019
One of the most common failure modes in a steel beam structure is lateral torsional buckling (LTB). The unbraced length of the beam is a crucial factor for LTB analysis.

Perilaku Balok Baja I Non Prismastis (Tapered Beam)

Rekayasa Sipil, 2018
The use of bending structure components becomes economical if the cross section of the beam follows the moment-diagram form. In this research is a simple beam with concentrated load in the middle of the span, so that the height of the beam is maximum in ...

Maneuverable Multilegged Locomotion through Anisotropically Arranged Soft Backbones in a Single‐Actuator Modular Miniature Robot

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A modular eight‐legged robot exploits anisotropically oriented soft I‐beam backbones to transmit vibration from a single unbalanced‐mass actuator, producing frequency‐dependent multimodal gaits. A pseudo‐rigid‐body model enables high‐fidelity MuJoCo simulation, while Bayesian parameter identification and reinforcement learning yield robust control ...
