This research investigates the application of additively manufactured crack-arresting features (CAFs), designed from tough and soft polymers, in enhancing the performance of thick glass fiber-reinforced polymer composite-epoxy adhesive joints found in wind ...

We investigate the fluid-driven growth of a shear crack along a frictional discontinuity and its transition to hydraulic fracturing (sometimes referred to as hydraulic jacking) under plane-strain conditions. We focus on the case of a constant friction coef ...

This paper establishes the close relation that exists between the Fano noise suppression factor F and the Gm/ID FoM showing that F is proportional to the product of the thermal noise excess factor γn and the normalized Gm/ID function. Taking advantage of t ...

It is well established that surface topography can affect cell functions. However, finding a reproducible and reliable method for regulating stem cell behavior is still under investigation. It has been shown that cell imprinted substrates contain micro- an ...

Background and objectives: Parameter estimation and uncertainty quantification are crucial in computa-tional cardiology, as they enable the construction of digital twins that faithfully replicate the behavior of physical patients. Many model parameters reg ...

Porous rocks have long been the focus of intense research driven by their importance in our society as host to our most essential resources (oil, gas, water, geothermal energy, etc), yet their rheology remains poorly understood. With increasing depth, poro ...

This study investigates the effect of high-peak loads on local relaxation of residual stress and fatigue damage in HFMI-treated high-strength steel welded joints. The finite element simulations are applied to consider the combined effect of geometry, mater ...

Probabilistic seismic hazard analysis, as the most prevalent approach to evaluate earthquake hazard, is commonly based on earthquake catalogs. Although previous studies show that the recurrence time of large-magnitude (M-w > 7.0) events in Iran is more tha ...

Cemented granular materials are abundant in nature and are often artificially produced. Their macroscopic behaviour is driven by small-scale material processes, which are generally classified as: grain breakage, cement damage and fragment rearrangement. Th ...

The use of molecular dynamics (MD) simulations has led to promising results to unravel the atomistic origins of adhesive wear, and in particular for the onset of wear at nanoscale surface asperities. However, MD simulations come with a high computational c ...

Human hands play a very important role in daily object manipulation. Current prosthetic hands are capable of mimicking most functions of the human hand, but how to interact with prosthetic hands based on human intentions remains an open problem. In this ar ...

Most available studies on distributed GAN architectures focus on implementations with a fusion center. In this work, we propose a fully decentralized scheme by employing a diffusion strategy to train a network of GANs. We interpret the training procedure a ...

During past periods of advance, Arctic glaciers and ice sheets overrode soil, sediments, and vegetation and buried significant stores of organic matter (OM); these glaciers are now shrinking rapidly due to climate warming. Little is known about the biogeoc ...

With the increasing amount of available data and advances in computing capabilities, deep neural networks (DNNs) have been successfully employed to solve challenging tasks in various areas, including healthcare, climate, and finance. Nevertheless, state-of ...

Since polar were ratified as part of the 5G standard, low-complexity polar decoders with close-to-optimum error-rate performance have received significant attention. Compared to successive cancellation (SC) decoding, both SC list and SC flip decoding can i ...

Fault surfaces are rough at all scales, this significantly affecting fault-slip behaviour. However, roughness is only occasionally considered experimentally and then often in experiments imposing a low slip velocity, corresponding to the initiation stage o ...

Hybrid adhesives can be developed using commercially available adhesive materials and customized to the required loading conditions. In this paper, SPABONDTM 820HTA (non-toughened) and SPABONDTM 840HTA (toughened) adhesives are hybridized by two strategies ...

During the design phase of an aircraft manufacturing system, different industrial scenarios need to be evaluated according to key performance indicators to achieve the optimal system performance. It is a highly complex process involving multidisciplinary s ...
