A proximodistal gradient in bone structure and mechanics in the wings of Seba's short‐tailed bat, Carollia perspicillata

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Bats possess the remarkable ability to fly, and with this, distinctive wing bone properties. We investigated the structural, mechanical, and compositional properties of the humerus, radius, metacarpals, and proximal and middle phalanges of Carollia perspicillata, an approximately 15 g fruit‐eating bat native to the Neotropics.

ULTIMATE STRENGTH ANALYSIS OF BOX GIRDER UNDER HOGGONG BENDING MOMENT, TORQUE AND WATER PRESSURE

International Journal of Research in Engineering and Technology, 2014
In this paper, the ultimate strength analysis of the box girders under combined load is investigated using a commercial FEA program, ABAQUS. It studies the ultimate strength analysis of the Reckling No. 23 box girders model. This paper mainly analyzes the influence of the ultimate strength of the box girders model under hogging bending moment, torque ...

Differences in predominant collagen fiber orientation between dorsal and plantar trabecular bone tracts of adult mule deer calcanei suggest strain‐mode‐specific adaptation

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Polarized microscopic images of the outer bone cortex (a and b) and deeper trabecular bone (c and d) of the deer calcaneus in thin cross‐sections. The brighter gray levels reflect more oblique‐to‐transverse collagen fibers in the compression/dorsal bone (a, c) and the darker gray levels reflect more longitudinal collagen in the tension/plantar bone (b,

Discrete Element Method Modeling of an Extrusion Process with Recirculation for Dry Manufacturing of Lithium‐Ion Battery Electrodes

Batteries &Supercaps, EarlyView.
On a digitized laboratory extruder, discrete element method modelling is studied, considering two classes of particles representing aggregates of 1) active material and 2) binder and carbon material is studied. Various extrusion scenarios leading to the formation of filaments devoted to the 3D printing of lithium‐ion battery electrodes are studied. The

Advances in Triboelectric Nanogenerators With Rotating Structure

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
The rotating TENG has been widely studied for its superiorities of simple structure, high efficiency, and stable output. This review introduced the four different principles of rotating TENG and offered a thorough summary for performance and application research through three‐level classification. Importantly, the current existing problems, challenges,

Failure mechanism of the coal wall at the working face based on an eccentric compression mechanical model

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
In this study, the nonuniform distribution of the bearing pressure in front of the coal wall has been revealed based on in situ monitoring data and numerical simulation results. Therefore, an eccentric compression mechanical model of the coal wall was established to study the deformation and failure characteristics of a coal wall. The slenderness ratio
