Structural Mechanism of Muscle Contraction

Annual Review of Biochemistry, 1999
▪ Abstract  X-ray crystallography shows the myosin cross-bridge to exist in two conformations, the beginning and end of the “power stroke.” A long lever-arm undergoes a 60° to 70° rotation between the two states. This rotation is coupled with changes in the active site (OPEN to CLOSED) and phosphate release.

An introduction to the mechanics of tensegrity structures

Proceedings of the 40th IEEE Conference on Decision and Control (Cat. No.01CH37228), 2001
Tensegrity structures consist of strings (in tension) and bars (in compression). Strings are strong, light, and foldable, so tensegrity structures have the potential to be light but strong and deployable. Pulleys, NiTi wire, or other actuators to selectively tighten some strings on a tensegrity structure can be used to control its shape.

Hypergraph Products for Structural Mechanics

Civil-Comp Proceedings, 2012
In this paper Cartesian, direct and strong Cartesian product of hypergraphs are investigated. A new concept named the adjacency function is defined on hypergraphs. This definition leads to distinct adjacency and Laplacian matrices for a hypergraph and makes it possible to express it in an algebraic form.

Structure and Mechanics of Starch Bread

Journal of Cereal Science, 1996
Abstract The mechanical properties of breads made of potato or wheat starch were measured in two successive compression/decompression cycles. From the shape of the stress–strain curves, the initial modulus and the critical stress and strain could be derived; the critical stress and strain are those at which the crumb structure starts to collapse.

Mechanizing structural induction.

2013
This thesis proposes improved methods for the automatic generation of proofs by structural induction in a formal system. The main application considered is proving properties of programs. The theorem-proving problem divides into two parts: (1) a formal system, and (2) proof generating methods.
