A Variational Beam Model for Failure of Cellular and Truss‐Based Architected Materials
Herein, a versatile and efficient beam modeling framework is developed to predict the nonlinear response and failure of cellular, truss‐based, and woven architected materials. It enables the exploration of their design space and the optimization of their mechanical behavior in the nonlinear regime. A variational formulation of a beam model is presented

Testicular Torsion in the Emergency Room: A Review of Detection and Management Strategies
Testicular torsion is a challenging and time-sensitive diagnosis that is encountered frequently in daily practice, especially in the emergency room. A thorough history, the presence of a painful and swollen testis and testicular ultrasonography plays a ...

Covariant formulation of scalar-torsion gravity [PDF]
We consider a generalized teleparallel theory of gravitation, where the action contains an arbitrary function of the torsion scalar and a scalar field, $f(T,\phi)$, thus encompassing the cases of $f(T)$ gravity and nonminimally coupled scalar field as ...

Torsion or not torsion, that is the question [PDF]
A hypothesis of general relativity (GR) is that spacetime torsion vanishes identically. This assumption has no empirical support; in fact, a nonvanishing torsion is compatible with all the experimental tests of GR. The first part of this essay specifies the framework that is suitable to test the vanishing-torsion hypothesis, and an interesting ...

Unilateral renal torsion in a lamb [PDF]
In ruminant, the kidneys are a major excretory organ that eliminate metabolic byproducts and regulate water-electrolyte homeostasis and maintain acid-base balance in the body.

This paper achieves, among other things, the following: • It frees the main result of [9] from the hypothesis of determinant class and extends this result from unitary to arbitrary representations. • It extends (and at the same times provides a new proof of) the main result of Bismut and Zhang [3] from finite dimensional representations of Γ to ...

Unusually thick shear-softening surface of micrometer-size metallic glasses
Summary: The surface of glass is crucial for understanding many fundamental processes in glassy solids. A common notion is that a glass surface is a thin layer with liquid-like atomic dynamics and a thickness of a few tens of nanometers.

Generalized Softened Variable Angle Truss Model for PC Beams under Torsion
In a previous study, a new model (Generalized Softened Variable Angle Truss Model—GSVATM) was proposed to compute the global behavior of reinforced concrete beams under torsion, including for low loading stages. In this article, the GSVATM is extended to

THE VALUE OF SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS IN THE DIAGNOSIS OF SPERMATIC CORD TORSION [PDF]
The aim of this study is to evaluate the most useful clinical signs and symptoms in the diagnosis of spermatic cord torsion, and so decreasing unnecessary surgical exploration and testicular loss rates for these patients.
