Load‑bearing behaviors of sandwich plates with non‑uniformly distributed grid cores : Static compression and bending by Hao, Ning, Wang, Youlong, Song, Yiheng, Ruan, Sihan, Quanjin, Ma, Wang, Ziying

“…Under bending loading, most NUGPs experience local failure at the loading head, while the specific category surpassing GPs undergoes shear buckling in longer grid walls. (3) Deformation modes of the core layer, mechanical analysis, thin plate buckling theory, and equivalent bending stiffness calculations elucidate the load-bearing mechanisms of NUGPs. …”

Performance of asphalt mixtures modified with nano-eggshell powder by Zghair Chfat, Alattafi Hadi, Haryati, Yaacob, Nurul Hidayah, Mohd Kamaruddin, Al-Saffar, Zaid Hazim, Putra Jaya, Ramadhansyah

“…To achieve this, asphalt mixtures containing 0% (control), 5%, and 9% NESP were developed, and their mechanical properties were investigated through various tests such as moisture damage, Marshall immersion stability, resilient modulus, dynamic creep, double-punch shear, water immersion, and wheel tracking. The results showed that NESP reduced the moisture susceptibility of the mixtures by increasing their tensile strength ratio. …”

Large eddy simulations of turbulent circular wall jets by Zhang, Shuai, Law, Adrian Wing-Keung, Zhao, Bing

“…Overall, the study shows that LES coupling with proper near-wall modelling can simulate both the kinematic and mixing characteristics of the turbulent wall jet in a satisfactory manner, and the accuracy is superior to the RANS models with enhanced wall functions for this three-dimensional wall-bounded shear flow. The advantages can be attributed directly to the better simulations of the anisotropic jet spreading near the wall.…”

Mechanical properties of the superficial biofilm layer determine the architecture of biofilms by Kundukad, Binu, Seviour, Thomas, Liang, Yang, Rice, Scott A., Kjelleberg, Staffan, Doyle, Patrick S.

“…The Young's modulus of the periphery of the biofilm colony was however independent of the hydrodynamic shear. The morphology of the microcolonies also influenced interfacial or peripheral stiffness. …”

Mechanical disorder of sticky-sphere glasses. II. Thermomechanical inannealability by González-López, Karina, Shivam, Mahajan, Zheng, Yuanjian, Ciamarra, Massimo Pica, Lerner, Edan

“…We find that in stickier glasses the stiffening of the shear modulus with thermal annealing is strongly suppressed, while the thermal-annealing-induced softening of the bulk modulus is enhanced. …”

Plastic Instability in Co-Cr-Ni-Mo alloy wires drawn with different drawing practices by GVK, Sai Srikanth, Tan, Ming Jen, Liu, Zhenyun

“…Plastic strain localization because of shear band formation was noticed in the FDD 95% CW wires, which contributed to lowered ductility and increased instability in the wire due to reduced γ and m. …”

Numerical simulation of titanium fibre metallic laminates under various impact loading by Selvadurai Shanmugasundram

“…In low impact velocity impact, the front and back panels failed in a petaling shape mode but when the impact velocity is increased to the ballistic level of 400m/s shear plugging was observed. The experimental setup is replicated in the FE model and analyzed for the same velocity and energy levels for both low and high velocity impacts models. …”

Range front faulting and volcanism in the mono basin, eastern California by Bursik, Marcus, Sieh, Kerry

“…Since the basin is extending obliquely to the trend of the frontal faults, there is a component of dextral shear to their motion, so that the Mono Craters may be forming on an extensional boundary of a pull-apart basin. …”

Galaxy bias in the era of LSST: perturbative bias expansions by Nicola, A, Hadzhiyska, B, Findlay, N, García-García, C, Alonso, D, Slosar, A, Guo, Z, Kokron, N, Angulo, R, Aviles, A, Blazek, J, Dunkley, J, Jain, B, Pellejero, M, Sullivan, J, Walter, CW, Zennaro, M

“…We consider a variety of different simulated galaxy samples and test the performance of the bias models in a tomographic joint analysis of LSST-Y10-like galaxy clustering, galaxy-galaxy-lensing and cosmic shear. We find both HEFT methods as well as LPT and EPT combined with non-perturbative predictions for the matter power spectrum to yield unbiased constraints on cosmological parameters up to at least a maximal scale of&nbsp;<em>k</em>_max&nbsp;=&nbsp;0.4&nbsp;Mpc^-1&nbsp;for all samples considered, even in the presence of assembly bias. …”
