Influence of Residual Stress on Fatigue Failure of Welded Joints

, 2003
This dissertation makes an effort to understand the influence of residual stresses on the fatigue failure of butt- and socket-welded piping joints. In order to achieve this goal, this study develops experimental fatigue failure data and a numerical ...

Bioinspired Adaptive Surfaces for Intelligent Liquid Manipulation: Progressing From Passive and Active to Hybrid Strategies

Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 56, 8 October 2026.
This review examines passive, active, and hybrid liquid manipulation strategies, highlighting hybrid approaches as an emerging route to reconcile energy efficiency with adaptive control. By actively reconstructing passive surfaces to store programmable interfacial energy, hybrid systems enable flexible yet low‐power liquid transport, with perspectives ...

Biological Systems as Physical Data Processors: Evolution as a Case of Embodied Computing

BioEssays, Volume 48, Issue 10, October 2026.
Embodied biological computing is process through which biological systems gravitate toward attractors in a solution space through a thermodynamically favored process of information capture. Applications in biotechnology, in particular metabolic engineering are numerous.

Climate Driven Water Table Changes and Their Influence on Liquefaction Response of Integral Bridges

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 13, Page 3285-3301, 25 October 2026.
ABSTRACT Integral abutment bridges (IABs) eliminate bearings and joints but transfer seismic demand directly into the surrounding soil, making their response highly sensitive to groundwater conditions and soil–structure interaction. This study presents a 60 g centrifuge testing programme on single‐span IABs designed to isolate the influence of water ...

Screening of Ceramic Filler Materials for a Packed‐Bed Thermal Energy Storage System With Lead as Heat Transfer Fluid

Energy Storage, Volume 8, Issue 7, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Liquid lead (Pb) is an attractive heat transfer fluid (HTF) for packed‐bed thermal energy storage (TES) systems aimed for high temperatures. However, liquid Pb is corrosive and its corrosivity increases with rising temperature. Therefore, compatibility tests of possible filler materials with Pb are mandatory.

Reverse Ratchet Syndrome With Intracardiac Looping

Journal of Arrhythmia, Volume 42, Issue 5, October 2026.
Intracardiac lead looping developed 7 years after ICD implantation due to reverse Ratchet syndrome. Despite marked radiographic abnormalities, device parameters remained stable and the patient was asymptomatic. Inadequate fixation of the generator and lead sleeves likely contributed to lead advancement.
