4D Bioprinted Self‐Folding Scaffolds Enhance Cartilage Formation in the Engineering of Trachea

Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 6, March 18, 2025.
A bilayer self‐folding scaffold, triggerable by humidity, is fabricated via 4D bioprinting for trachea engineering. An analytical model is derived to predict its radius of curvature, enabling its scalability. Cartilage progenitor cells seeded on the scaffold perceive scaffold final curvature and react to it, by enhancing the upregulation of pro ...

A modeling method for vibration analysis of cracked beam with arbitrary boundary condition

Journal of Ocean Engineering and Science, 2018
This paper establishes a cracked Timoshenko beams model to investigate the vibration behavior based on the ultraspherical polynomials. Timoshenko beam theory is applied to model the free vibration analysis of the cracked beam and the numerical results ...

Static and Dynamic Responses of Micro-Structured Beams

Applied Sciences, 2020
In this study, we developed a one-dimensional Timoshenko beam model, embedded in a 3D space for static and dynamic analyses of beam-like structures. These are grid cylinders, that is, micro-structured bodies, made of a periodic and specifically designed ...

Comparative Spectral Analysis of Flexible Structure Models: the Euler-Bernoulli Beam model, the Rayleigh Beam model, and the Timoshenko Beam Model [PDF]

, 2017
We derive herein approximate spectra for three dierent models of transversely vibrating, beams. Each model consists of a system of partial dierential equations (PDEs) with various, boundary conditions.

Continuum Mechanics Modeling of Flexible Spring Joints in Surgical Robots

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A new mechanical model of a tendon‐actuated helical extension spring joint in surgical robots is built using Cosserat rod theory. The model can implicitly handle the unknown contacts between adjacent coils and numerically predict spring shapes from straight to significantly bent under actuation forces.

Numerical Modeling of Photothermal Self‐Excited Composite Oscillators

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
We present a numerical framework for simulating photothermal self‐excited oscillations. The driving mechanism is elucidated by highlighting the roles of inertia and overshoot, as well as the phase lag between the thermal moment and the oscillation angle, which together construct the feedback loop between the system state and the environmental stimulus.
