Characterization of disturbance sources for LISA: torsion pendulum results

open access: yes, 2004
A torsion pendulum allows ground-based investigation of the purity of free-fall for the LISA test masses inside their capacitive position sensor. This paper presents recent improvements in our torsion pendulum facility that have both increased the ...

Swelling‐Programmed Topographical Guidance for Dynamic Spheroid Self‐Assembly via a Mechanochemical Hydrogel Niche

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A swelling‐programmed micropatterned hydrogel guides adherent cells through a controlled transition from cell–matrix anchoring to cadherin‐mediated cell–cell compaction, enabling rapid assembly of high‐viability spheroids with defined size and morphology.

Influence of Joint Flexibility on Vibration Analysis of Free-Free Beams

open access: yesNonlinear Engineering, 2014
In present work, joint flexibility (or looseness) of the free-free beam is investigated by using a two noded beam finite element formulation with transverse displacement and joint rotations as the degrees of freedom per node at joint location ...

Time-Response Functions of Mechanical Networks with Inerters and Causality

open access: yes, 2017
This paper derives the causal time-response functions of three-parameter mechanical networks that have been reported in the literature and involve the inerter-a two-node element in which the force-output is proportional to the relative acceleration of ...

Surgical Results in Rotator Cuff Tears with Shoulder Stiffness

open access: yesJournal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2007
Little has been mentioned about the treatment of rotator cuff tears and associated shoulder stiffness. We prospectively treated a series of patients with rotator cuff tears associated with shoulder stiffness concomitantly and reported the outcomes.A combined procedure of manipulation, lysis of adhesions, anterior acromioplasty and repair of rotator ...

Spatially Modulated Morphotropic Phase Boundaries in a Compressively Strained Multiferroic Thin Film

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The coexisting rhombohedral‐like (R′, MA) and tetragonal‐like (T′, MC) monoclinic phases in compressively strained bismuth ferrite thin films exhibit exceptional piezoelectric and magnetic properties. While previous studies have largely focused on probing the morphotropic phase boundaries (MPBs) comprising ordered R′/T′ twins, their self ...

Numerical Study on the Flexural Performance of Fully Bolted Joint for Panelized Steel Modular Structure

open access: yesBuildings
To investigate the initial rotational stiffness and ultimate moment of fully bolted connections in panelized steel modular structures, a finite element analysis was carried out on 20 joint models.

Beam-spring generalized model for segmental lining and simulation of its nonlinear rotation

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2019
The beam-spring model method has been widely used in the design and calculation of shield tunnel lining, but the existing beam-spring models cannot simulate the discontinuous deformation of the segmental joints and the nonlinear characteristics of the ...

Modal couping effects in the free vibration of elastically interconnected beams [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
The problem of free vibration of a uniform beam elastically interconnected to a cantilevered beam, representing an idealized launch vehicle aeroelastic model in a wind tunnel, is studied.

Nonlinear dynamics of coupled transverse-rotational waves in granular chains [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The nonlinear dynamics of coupled waves in one-dimensional granular chains with and without a substrate is theoretically studied accounting for quadratic nonlinearity.
