Hydrogel platforms for 3D cardiac tissue engineering and fibrotic disease modelling
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Hydrogel‐based cardiac tissue models are advancing our understanding of heart health and disease. By incorporating electrical conductivity, aligned structures, and tunable mechanical properties, these platforms better replicate the complex environment of native heart tissue.

Shear Behavior of Concrete Beams Reinforced with GFRP Shear Reinforcement [PDF]
International Journal of Polymer Science, 2015 This paper presents the shear capacities of concrete beams reinforced with glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) plates as shear reinforcement. To examine the shear performance, we manufactured and tested a total of eight specimens. Test variables included the GFRP strip-width-to-spacing ratio and type of opening array.

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a rare autoimmune disease defined by immune dysregulation, vasculopathy, and progressive fibrosis of the skin and internal organs. Despite advances in care, major complications such as interstitial lung disease (ILD) and myocardial involvement remain the leading causes of morbidity and mortality.

On Behavior of Granular Materials in Simple Shear
Soils and Foundations, 1980 ABSTRACT Simple shear deformation under vertical pressure of granular materials which consist of cohesionless rigid grains, is considered. Based on the mechanics of the relative motion of the grains or families of grains at the microlevel, and by considering the corresponding rate of frictional losses, a simple energy equation is obtained, on the ...

A Workflow to Accelerate Microstructure‐Sensitive Fatigue Life Predictions
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This study introduces a workflow to accelerate predictions of microstructure‐sensitive fatigue life. Results from frameworks with varying levels of simplification are benchmarked against published reference results. The analysis reveals a trade‐off between accuracy and model complexity, offering researchers a practical guide for selecting the optimal ...

Effect of the axial force and material strength on the seismic behavior of the short shear walls [PDF]
مجله مدل سازی در مهندسی, 2017 With respect to the height to width ratio, the concrete shear walls are divided into two categories of cantilever and short shear walls. Cantilever shear walls with the aspect ratio greater than 2 demonstrate flexural behavior while short shear walls ...
