Microscale Mapping of Fiber Strain and Damage in Composite Wrinkled Laminates Using Computed Tomography Assisted Wide‐Angle X‐Ray Scattering

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study combines full‐field tomography with diffraction mapping to quantify radial (ε002$\varepsilon _{002}$) and axial (ε100$\varepsilon _{100}$) lattice strain in wrinkled carbon‐fiber specimens for the first time. Radial microstrain gradients (−14.5 µεMPa$\varepsilon \mathrm{MPa}$−1) are found to signal damage‐prone zones ahead of failure, which ...

Design of Safe and Efficient Adenine Base Editors via Protein Language Model Screening for Osteoarthritis Treatment

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Base editors enable precise genome modification and have emerged as a promising therapeutic approach for correcting diseases caused by single‐nucleotide variants. While the current efficient version of adenine base editors (ABEs), such as ABE8e, exhibits exceptional efficiency for A‐to‐G conversions, their clinical translation is hindered by ...

Built environment characteristics and driving speed in 30 km/h zones: a Dutch national analysis

Traffic Safety Research
Road authorities are systematically expanding 30 km/h zones to enhance safety. This requires understanding how built environment characteristics are associated with driving speeds, but only a few studies, typically based on small samples, focus on 30 km/

Optimum design of speed control humps for vehicles.

TRANSACTIONS OF THE JAPAN SOCIETY OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERS Series C, 1988
This paper deals with optimum design problems of humps for controlling vehicle speeds. Optimum humps are obtained for a segment of a circle in section using a method with a SUMT optimizing a hump for a vehicle. The objective of the design is to minimize the maximum acceleration of the driver occurring during a vehicle crossing a hump at a design speed ...

Dual‐Physical‐Field Nanocatalysis: Injectable Hydrogel Enables Piezo‐Photothermal Synergy for Breast Cancer Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Piezocatalytic therapy (PCT) harnesses mechanical energy to generate tumor‐lethal reactive oxygen species (ROS), but its efficacy is limited by rapid electron‐hole recombination and poor intratumoral retention. To overcome these limitations, we engineered heterostructured BiOCl@CuO nanosheets embedded in an injectable, conductive ...

Design and evaluation of a novel curved speed hump (CSH) for Indian roads

Transportation Research Interdisciplinary Perspectives
Traffic calming measures are crucial for sustainable traffic management. Globally, vertical and horizontal techniques, such as speed humps, speed cushions, roundabouts and chicanes are used to reduce vehicle speeds and enhance road safety.

Traffic Calming Measures: An Evaluation of the Effect on Driving Speed

Promet (Zagreb), 2017
Road accidents are one of the leading causes of death in the world, particularly among young people. Excessive speed is one of the main risk factors in road traffic safety, increasing accident probability and affecting accident severity.

Wave Propagation in a Strongly Nonlinear Locally Resonant Granular Crystal

, 2017
In this work, we study the wave propagation in a recently proposed acoustic structure, the locally resonant granular crystal. This structure is composed of a one-dimensional granular crystal of hollow spherical particles in contact, containing linear ...

Coefficient diagram method-based control of semi-active vehicle suspensions with performance evaluation over circular and trapezoidal speed humps at multiple speeds

Journal of Engineering and Applied Science
The occurrence of abrupt vertical excitations, such as speed bumps, complicates the suspension system’s task of balancing stability with ride comfort. This paper uses the Coefficient Diagram Method (CDM) to design a semi-active suspension controller in a
