We study a nonlinear fluid–structure interaction (FSI) problem between an incompressible, viscous fluid and a composite elastic structure consisting of two layers: a thin layer (membrane) in direct contact with the fluid, and a thick layer (3D linearly ela ...
In order to meet desired seismic performances, it is increasingly evident that engineers require reliable methods for the estimation of seismic demands on both structural and non-structural elements. To this end, current design codes incorporate simplified ...
Adhesion towards glass and interfacial healing of partially supramolecular hybrid polymer networks featuring a range of H-bdnds content were investigated through two dedicated adhesion test methods. In a first series of tests, adhesion strength was measure ...
Strengthening of existing steel members using prestressed carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) plates has certain advantages over non-prestressed reinforcement, especially due to the reduction in permanent tensile stresses acting on the steel members. Ho ...
This paper aims to provide a road map for future works related to reverse engineering field of expertise. Reverse Engineering, in a mechanical context, relates to any process working in a bottom-up fashion, namely that it goes from a lower level concept or ...
Contactin-4 (CNTN4) is a complex cell adhesion molecule (CAM) localized at neuronal membranes, playing a key role in maintaining the mechanical integrity and signaling properties of the synapse. CNTN4 consists of six immunoglobulin C2 type (IgC2) domains a ...
Suberin is an aromatic-aliphatic cross-linked polyester structure which constitutes cell wall structures of cork. It is particularly interesting for its use of monomeric compounds towards renewable bio-based polymers. In this study, the extraction of suber ...
Thanks to the rise of new technologies and constant progress in fields such as robotics, new ways of designing timber structural building elements can be imag-ined and implemented on an industrial scale. Complex methods and sequences of assembly can be set ...
In this work we study, from the numerical point of view, a problem involving one-dimensional thermoelastic mixtures with two different temperatures; that is, when each component of the mixture has its own temperature. The mechanical problem consists of two ...
The studies presented in this thesis aim to extend the current knowledge and understanding of the mechanical behavior of nanocrystalline materials with respect to temperature- and time dependence. Free standing electrodeposited nanocrystalline nickel speci ...
