Strength in numbers, combining many weak interactions into an overall strong connection, is the fundamental principle of multivaleny. This concept has been exploiting for the engineering of super-selective cell-targeting materials, which generally display ...
In this work, we present the development of a 3D lattice-type model at microscale based upon the Voronoi-cell representation of material microstructure. This model can capture the coupling between mechanic and electric fields with non-linear constitutive b ...
During the 17th century, being an engineer at the Medici Court was a discipline at the intersection of mathematics, and the pictorial and mechanical arts. Born out of the heritage of Alberti, Vinci, and Vasari, the Accademia del disegno - founded on the th ...
Porous brittle solids evidence complex mechanical behavior, where localized failure patterns originate from mechanical processes on the microstructural level. In order to investigate the failure mechanics of porous brittle solids, we outline a general stoc ...
Limit-state analysis of soil-structure interacting systems is a classical problem in theoretical and applied soil mechanics. Usually, the capacities of both components are evaluated separately. However, it is well known that soil-structure interaction play ...
The free energy plays a fundamental role in theories of phase transformations and microstructure evolution. It encodes the thermodynamic coupling between different fields, such as mechanics and chemistry, within continuum descriptions of non-equilibrium ma ...
Origami robots are characterized by their compact design, quasi-two-dimensional manufacturing process, and folding joint-based transmission kinematics. The physical requirements in terms of payload, range of motion, and embedding core robotic components ha ...
The past decades have seen numerous efforts to apply the finite volume methodology to solid mechanics problems. However, only limited work has been done by the finite volume community toward the simulation of mechanical contact. In this article, we present ...
The form and structure of biological tissues define their function. The emergence of tissue morphology during development is one of the wonders of nature. Cells mechanically probe and manipulate their surroundings while constructing structures from the ext ...
The aim of this project is to implement a boundary element method program in order to solve the soil mechanics problem of a two-layered soil subject to a contact on his top surface. For this, I use Python programming language and follow the fictitious elem ...
