Approximate determination of stress intensity factor for multiple surface cracks [PDF]

open access: yesFME Transactions, 2018
In this paper a versatile and easy to use approximate procedure was used for the estimation of mode I stress intensity factors in case of multiple surface cracks in a three dimensional elastic body, subjected to remote uniaxial tensile loading.

Unloading-Induced Crack Propagation of Two Collinear Unequal Length Flaws in Brittle Rocks

open access: yesGeofluids, 2020
The propagation and coalescence of numerous discontinuous joints significantly contribute to landslide instability during excavation unloading. The tip expression of stress intensity factors of two collinear unequal length cracks in a typical rock mass ...

Transfer Printing and Reconfiguration of Soft Electronics Using Digital Microfluidics and Laser Machining

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This paper presents a digital microfluidics‐based technique for transferring and reconfiguring soft nanomembranes. Laser‐machined nanothin membranes are picked up, transported, and aligned via tailored surface tension and the actuation of water droplets, enabling the development of flexible electronics, the integration of functional materials on 3D ...

Pull‐and‐Push Nanotherapeutic Hydrogels: Scavenging Inflammatory Triggers While Driving Tissue Regeneration in Burn Wounds

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A nanounit‐assembled hydrogel employing a “pull‐and‐push” strategy simultaneously scavenges pro‐inflammatory cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) and delivers regenerative therapeutics in response to burn‐induced hyperthermia. By repolarizing macrophages and promoting angiogenesis, this multifunctional platform accelerates burn wound healing, offering a blueprint for

Toward Fast Proton Shuttling in Acidic Oxygen Evolution Reaction

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review establishes proton transfer dynamics as a descriptor governing acidic OER activity, moving beyond the kinetic constraints derived from the proton coupled electron transfer. We discuss how deprotonation governs classical mechanisms, including adsorbate evolution mechanism (AEM), lattice oxygen mechanism (LOM) and oxide path mechanism (OPM ...

Development of a new tensile stress model for expansive soils

open access: yes, 2015
The problems associated with drying shrinkage are worldwide, and cause great damage to highways and buildings constructed on expansive soils. Literature review indicates that the development of shrinkage crack is governed by the principle of unsaturated ...

Reduced Graphene Oxide Transparent Electrodes Enabling Compact Soft Tunable Lenses

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
By spray‐coating an elastomeric membrane with reduced graphene oxide (rGO) at various surface densities, elastomeric actuators are manufactured. Electro‐mechano‐optical characterizations show the suitability of rGO as an effective material for compliant, semi‐transparent electrodes, enabling soft electrically tunable lenses with a compact form factor ...

Tensile Stress—Strain Measurements for Characterization of Gum Elastomers and Filled Compounds

open access: yes, 1990
For a gum elastomer in its amorphous, isotropic state, shear modulus and tensile modulus are related with a factor of three. This relation is maintained in the range of temperature and time scale defining the rubbery region of the material behavior. When
