Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 This paper studies the compressive failure behavior of pw-GFRP (plain-woven glass fiber reinforced polymer) sandwich composite L-joints for ships. Six L-joint specimens were subjected to ultimate compressive tests, which show that damage and stiffness ...

Flexural Fatigue Behavior of Glulam Beams Connected with Steel Splints and Bolts
Buildings, 2023 Glulam beams connected with steel splints and bolts (GBSBs) are subjected to cyclic reciprocating dynamic loads in practice, which eventually leads to damage accumulation and structure failure.

Regulating Myoblast Phenotype Through Controlled Gel Stiffness and Degradation [PDF]
Tissue Engineering, 2007 Mechanical stiffness and degradability are important material parameters in tissue engineering. The aim of this study was to address the hypothesis that these variables regulate the function of myoblasts cultured in 2-D and 3-D microenvironments. Development of cell-interactive alginate gels with tunable degradation rates and mechanical stiffness was ...

Bouc–Wen-Type Models with Stiffness Degradation: Thermodynamic Analysis and Applications [PDF]
Journal of Engineering Mechanics, 2008 In this paper, a thermodynamic analysis of Bouc-Wen models endowed with both strength and stiffness degradation is provided. It is based on the relationship between the flow rules of these models and those of the endochronic plasticity theory with damage, discussed in a companion paper (Erlicher and Point, 2008). Using the theoretical framework of that

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Early‐life exposure to a high‐fat diet altered intact Achilles tendons in rat offspring, making them thinner, stiffer, and molecularly distinct even without injury. These findings suggest that developmental high‐fat diet exposure may impair tendon quality and increase susceptibility to mechanical overload or tendon injury later in life.

Aquaporin‐3 and aquaporin‐5 impact the development of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma spheroids
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Schematic representation of the role of aquaporin‐3 (AQP3) and aquaporin‐5 (AQP5) in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Both proteins are upregulated in PDAC and are associated with tumor progression and metastatic potential. Silencing AQP3 or AQP5 in PDAC spheroids results in decreased diameter, area, and overall growth, underscoring their key ...
