Different factors such as age, location of timber within the tree, structural imperfections, load history such as wind and snow etc. can affect the material properties of timber taken from the same species, and grown in the same geographical location and l ...
Band inversion, one of the key signatures of time-reversal invariant topological insulators (TIs), arises mostly due to the spin-orbit (SO) coupling. Here, based on ab initio density-functional calculations, we report a theoretical investigation of the SO- ...
Silicon nitride is a widely used industrial ceramic, specifically for dynamic loading applications because of its special mechanical and material properties. The investigation of the underlying mechanisms which lead to these properties is experimentally ch ...
Real-time physics simulation has been extensively used in computer games, but its potential has yet to be fully realized in design and education. We present an interactive 3D physics engine with a wide variety of applications. In common with traditional FE ...
The plasticity of the dense hydrous magnesium silicate (DHMS) phase A, a key hydrous mineral within cold subduction zones, was investigated by two complementary approaches: high-pressure deformation experiments and computational methods. The deformation ex ...
Deformation-dependent punching shear resistance often constitutes the decisive design criterion for reinforced concrete slabs supported by columns. The increasing number of aging structures exhibiting insufficient punching resistance and detailing deficien ...
PbTiO3 thin films were epitaxially grown on (001) KTaO3 single crystal substrates by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. The coherent epitaxial growth introduced a large in-plane tensile strain to the PbTiO3 film. This tensile strain increased T-C and ...
The loss of material ductility in the presence of very high amplitude cyclic straining is an observed phenomenon in many extreme conditions like earthquake loadings. This phenomenon is called ultra-low cycle fatigue (ULCF) and failure is often achieved in ...
Osteoarthritis and rotator cuff tears are two common and wide spread shoulder diseases leading to significant restrictions in the daily life of the affected. The pathogenesis is not fully understood yet. A chronic process triggered by multiple causes is as ...
The demand for architectural transparency has drastically increased structural use of glass in buildings and constructions. Connections between structural glass components represent one of the main critical aspects of glass engineering. In the last years, ...
