Swimming by reciprocal motion at low Reynolds number

Biological microorganisms swim with flagella and cilia that execute nonreciprocal motions for low Reynolds number (Re) propulsion in viscous fluids. This symmetry requirement is a consequence of Purcell's scallop theorem, which complicates the actuation sc ...

Use of indentation tests to study the influence of confining stress on rock fragmentation by a TBM cutter

Jian Zhao, Lijun Yin, Hongsu Ma

This paper explores the influence of the confining stress on rock fragmentation under the cutter of tunnel boring machine (TBM) by indentation test. Acoustic emission (AE) system was employed for real-time monitoring the rock fragmentation process during t ...

The role of energy dissipation of polymeric scaffolds in the mechanobiological modulation of chondrogenic expression

Dominique Pioletti, Philippe Abdel Sayed, Ulrike Kettenberger, Salim Elias Darwiche

Mechanical stimulation has been proposed to induce chondrogenesis in cell-seeded scaffold. However, the effects of mechanical stimuli on engineered cartilage may vary substantially between different scaffolds. This advocates for the need to identify an ove ...

Origin of Anomalous Slip in Tungsten

Helena Van Swygenhoven, Steven Van Petegem, Cécile Renée Maria Marichal

Low-temperature deformation of body-centered cubic metals shows a significant amount of plastic slip on planes with low shear stresses, a phenomenon called anomalous slip. Despite progress in atomistic modeling of the consequences of complex stress states ...

Self-Consistent Mean Flow Description of the Nonlinear Saturation of the Vortex Shedding in the Cylinder Wake

François Gallaire, Cristobal Manuel Arratia Martinez, Vladislav Mantic Lugo

The Bénard–von Kármán vortex shedding instability in the wake of a cylinder is perhaps the best known example of a supercritical Hopf bifurcation in fluid dynamics. However, a simplified physical description that accurately accounts for the saturation ampl ...

Characterization of THM Behaviour of Compacted MX-80 Granular Bentonite Using an Advanced Double-wall Triaxial Cell

Lyesse Laloui, Alessio Ferrari, Ali Seiphoori

This paper aims at characterization of thermo-hydro-mechanical behaviour of MX-80 granular bentonite obtained from an innovative double-cell triaxial system. The system has been mainly developed to perform suction controlled tests on unsaturated geomateria ...

Evolution of heterogeneous stress distributions created by slip precursors in numerical simulations of frictional interfaces

Jean-François Molinari, Mathilde Edmée Lucette Radiguet de la Bastaie, David Simon Kammer

Understanding how a frictional interface fails, and how past ruptures will affect the propagation of the following ruptures is fundamental to a better comprehension of earthquake behavior. In that sense, numerical simulations provide a useful tool to study ...

Enhanced safety with post-installed shear reinforcement

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz

The safety of existing concrete slabs against shear may be insufficient for several reasons such as design and construction errors, structural modifications or increased loads. Moreover, the knowledge about shear design has significantly increased over the ...
