Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.The vascular bundle–inspired structure design involved developing a unit cell and rotating it by 45° for 2D/3D assembly. Unit cells varied in strut thickness (t) from 0.2 to 1.15 mm. Finite element model (FEM) analysis under quasi‐static compression yielded stress–strain curves and stress/strain maps.

The Quick Measure of a Nurbs Surface Curvature for Accurate Triangular Meshing
Polish Maritime Research, 2014 NURBS surfaces are the most widely used surfaces for three-dimensional models in CAD/ CAE programs. When a model for FEM calculation is prepared with a CAD program it is inevitable to mesh it finally. There are many algorithms for meshing planar regions.

Rotary 4D Printing of Programmable Metamaterials on Sustainable 4D Mandrel
Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 11, Issue 1, 8 January 2026.The paper introduces open, rotary 4D printing of programmable tubular metamaterials. It presents an open, non‐planar path‐to‐G‐code pipeline and shape‐changing rotary mandrel that enable support‐free fabrication and multi‐stimuli actuation. Experiments and FEA validate the mentioned features and stress redistribution.

Aerodynamic Characteristics Optimization Design of the HALE Joined‐Wing Configuration UAV
International Journal of Aerospace Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.This study investigates the factors influencing the aerodynamic performance enhancement of the rear wing of the joined‐wing configuration UAVs by analyzing the flow field structure and flow mechanisms before and after airfoil optimization. Correspondingly, an optimization design concept tailored to joined‐wing aircraft is proposed. Focusing on the rear

Accuracy assessment of mine walls’ surface models derived from terrestrial laser scanning
International Journal of Coal Science & Technology, 2018 The monitoring of highwall slopes at open-pit mines is an important task to ensure safe mining. For this reason, several techniques such as total station, radar, terrestrial Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) can be employed for surface measurement. The

Higher‐Order, Mixed‐Hybrid Finite Elements for Kirchhoff–Love Shells
International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 126, Issue 21, 15 November 2025.ABSTRACT A novel mixed‐hybrid method for Kirchhoff–Love shells is proposed that enables the use of classical, possibly higher‐order Lagrange elements in numerical analyses. In contrast to purely displacement‐based formulations that require higher continuity of shape functions as in isogeometric analysis (IGA), the mixed formulation features ...
