A Coupled Extended Finite Element–Cohesive Zone Model for Hydraulic Fracture Propagation Under Poroelastic Effects Across Different Propagation Regimes

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Numerical simulation of hydraulic fracturing remains challenging due to the strong coupling between geomechanics and fluid flow when modelling multiple physical mechanisms of rock deformation, fracture evolution and fluid leak‐off. This study develops a coupled hydraulic fracture propagation framework that combines the extended finite element ...

Sliding Mode Control in Aerospace Applications: A Survey

open access: yesInternational Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sliding mode control (SMC) enjoys robustness to matched and unmatched (in the case of minimum phase input‐output dynamics) bounded perturbations, and finite time convergence. Second‐order and higher‐order sliding mode control systems (2‐SMC/HOSMC) retain all the advantages of sliding mode control, but in addition can be applied to systems of ...

Rotatable Lens‐Based 3D Reconstruction Method for Monocular Vision Systems

open access: yesSmartBot, EarlyView.
Accurate 3D reconstruction in confined environments remains challenging because conventional vision‐based measurement systems are difficult to maintain compactness without sacrificing accuracy. Here, the authors develop a rotatable lens‐based monocular vision system, which is the first time using the refraction of the light induced by a rotating wedge ...

Approaching Gold‐Standard Sensitivity in a Portable and Versatile Gold Nanoprisms Thermoplasmonic Platform for Lateral Flow Detection of Biomolecules

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
This study presents a plasmonic thermal lateral flow (ThermoLFA) biosensor for ultrasensitive, early detection of biomolecules. By combining plasmonic gold nanoprisms (AuNPrs) and near‐infrared (NIR) laser activation, it enhances signal output beyond conventional LFAs.

Three‐dimensional meso‐scale finite element modeling of recycled aggregate concrete using cohesive zone method

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The presence of adhered mortar (AM) in recycled aggregates (RAs) significantly affects the mechanical performance of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC). Meso‐scale modeling provides valuable insights into complex phase interactions, enabling a better understanding of RAC behavior.
