FINITE ELEMENT MODELLING OF A TURBINE BLADE TO STUDY THE EFFECT OF MULTIPLE CRACKS USING MODAL PARAMETERS [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Engineering Science and Technology, 2016
The presence of crack in a structure tends to modify its modal parameters (natural frequencies and mode shapes). The fact can be used inversely to predict the crack parameters (crack depth and its location) from measurement of the changes in the modal ...

Income and the Use of Prescription Drugs by the Elderly: Evidence from the Notch Cohorts [PDF]

open access: yes
We use exogenous variation in Social Security payments created by the Social Security benefits notch to estimate how retirees' use of prescription medications responds to changes in their incomes.

Design Strategies and Emerging Applications of High‐Performance Flexible Piezoresistive Pressure Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Flexible piezoresistive pressure sensors underpin wearable and soft electronics. This review links sensing physics, including contact resistance modulation, quantum tunneling and percolation, to unified materials/structure design. We highlight composite and graded architectures, interfacial/porous engineering, and microstructured 3D conductive networks

Light‐Actuated Fiber‐Climbing Inchworm Robot Toward Endoluminal Navigation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A kirigami‐inspired soft inchworm robot harnesses optical energy from a customized side‐emitting optical fiber, guaranteeing its propulsion along the fiber body. The wavelength‐selective responsiveness of dye‐functionalized liquid crystal elastomers and the application of temporal illumination patterns enable sequential control of robot components. The

A unifying approach to fatigue design in presence of defects and notches subject to uniaxial loading

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2014
In the recent past, Atzori and Lazzarin proposed a diagram able to include the geometrical effects on the fatigue limit of defects, short cracks, long cracks and U-shaped notches of whatever severity.

Translational Considerations for Injectable Biomaterials and Bioscaffolds to Repair and Regenerate Brain Tissue

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The repair and regeneration of brain tissue faces both biological and technical challenges. Injectable bioscaffolds offer new opportunities to stimulate tissue regrowth in the brain by recruiting neural stem cells. Here, the translational issues are reviewed that need to be address to advance this promising new therapeutic approach from the bench to ...

Understanding the Effects of Conductive Polymer Electrode Coating on Recorded Neural Signals

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Conductive polymer coatings are widely explored to improve the quality of signals recorded with chronically implanted neural electrodes, offering enhanced biocompatibility along with reduced electrode impedance. Combining computational modelling and data from PEDOT:PTS coated and PtIr electrodes in rats, we show that improvements in signal quality with

Evo-Devo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Evo-Devo je grana biologije koja uspoređuje razvojne procese različitih organizama za određivanje ancestralnog odnosa među njima i otkivanje kako su evoluirali razvojni procesi. U ovom radu usmjerila sam se na aspekt unutar područja Evo-Devo, a radi se o
