Implementation of Drug‐Induced Rhabdomyolysis and Acute Kidney Injury in Microphysiological System

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A modular Muscle–Kidney proximal tubule‐on‐a‐chip integrates 3D skeletal muscle and renal proximal tubule tissues to model drug‐induced rhabdomyolysis and acute kidney injury. The coculture system enables dynamic tissue interaction, functional contraction monitoring, and quantification of nephrotoxicity, revealing drug side effect‐induced metabolic ...

Capacity Increase for Existing Steel Bridges Using Prestressed Cables [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In the present study, a practical approach is proposed for geometric nonlinear analysis of existing steel bridges. The approach is defined by finite element displacement direct rigidity procedure, which is based on an iterative procedure.

Fluid–Structure Interaction Analysis of the Fish Bone Active Camber Mechanism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A coupled, partitioned fluid/structure-interaction analysis is introduced for calculation of the deformed equilibrium shape, aerodynamic coefficients, and actuation requirements of the fish-bone-active-camber morphing concept. The fish-bone-active-camber

Golden‐Ratio–Guided Aperiodic Architected Metamaterials with Simultaneously Enhanced Strength and Toughness

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Guided by the golden ratio, a class of aperiodic architected metamaterials is introduced to address the intrinsic trade‐off between strength and toughness. By unifying local geometric heterogeneity with global order, the golden‐ratio‐guided aperiodic architecture promotes spatial delocalization of damage tolerence regions, leading to more tortuous ...

CONCEPTUAL DESIGN OF BOWSTRING BRIDGES WITH STRESS RIBBON TIE [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In this paper the conceptual design of tied-arch bridges is examined. A proposal for a particular kind of bowstring bridges, with an upper deck and a stress ribbon footbridge placed between the arch footings is discussed. The double structure allows to

Fuse Modeling for Reliability Study of Power Electronic Circuits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
This paper describes a comprehensive modeling approach on reliability of fuses used in power electronic circuits. When fuses are subjected to current pulses, cyclic temperature stress is introduced to the fuse element and will wear out the component ...

Electroactive Liquid Crystal Elastomers as Soft Actuators

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Electroactive liquid crystal elastomers (eLCEs) can be actuated via electromechanical, electrochemical, or electrothermal effects. a) Electromechanical effects include Maxwell stress, electrostriction, and the electroclinic effect. b) Electrochemical effects arise from electrode redox reactions.

Exploratory experimental investigations on post-tensioned structural glass beams

open access: yesJournal of Facade Design and Engineering, 2014
The mechanical response of post-tensioned glass beams is explored in this paper. This is done through bending experiments on post-tensioned glass beam specimens with either mechanically anchored or adhesively bonded steel tendons by which a beneficial ...
