Seismic characteristics of supershear and sub‐Rayleigh earthquakes: Implication from simple cases
Numerous investigations of supershear earthquakes make a conclusion that a supershear earthquake produces a seismic shock wave on the ground that may increase the resulting destruction. We investigate a supershear rupture promoted by the free surface and

By taking the limited range of clay behind the retaining wall as the research object, considering soil arching effect under non-limit state, and adopting the angle of the fracture surface obtained by the plastic upper limit theory and the variation law ...

Soft Mechanical‐Electrical Logic Using Liquid Metal‐Filled 3D‐Printed Architectures
We present 3D‐printed soft mechanical–electrical logic elements that use liquid metal–filled silicone tubes actuated by thermoplastic polyurethane/polylactic acid (TPU/PLA) architectures to produce Boolean operations. Complementary normally open and normally closed unit cells perform repeatable binary transitions and can be combined into more complex ...

The effect of groove texture patterns on piston-ring pack friction [PDF]
A cylinder liner possesses fairly intricate surface requirements due to its complicated functions. It needs to provide adequate surface roughness to resist wear as well as to store and retain lubricants during high temperatures. The liner surface texture

Fault maturity has been proposed to exert a first order control on earthquake rupture, yet direct observations linking individual rupture to long‐term fault growth are rare.

Rupture Strength and Irregularity of Fracture Surfaces [PDF]
Textural irregularities of fracture surfaces of cement-based materials seem to be an interesting source of information on some mechanical properties. Besides compressive strength, the flexural strength is strongly correlated with height irregularities (i.e. roughness) of fracture surfaces of hydrated cement pastes.

This plot compares experimental tensile stress–strain curves (with 4 different strain rates) and corresponding modelled curves (obtained using the optimised sets of Voce and Miller–Norton parameter values shown). The inferred M‐N values, characterizing the creep, are very similar to those obtained via conventional creep testing.

Hydrostatic Tensile Fracture of a Polyurethane Elastomer [PDF]
The investigation of fracture of polymeric materials in hydrostatic tensile fields constitutes an avenue of approach to the study of fracture in more general three-dimensional environments.
