Wear behaviour of NiTi shape memory alloys by Yan, Lina

“…For example, since mechanical properties of NiTi SMAs are close to those of cortical bones, NiTi SMA based implants such as joint replacements, bone plates, and spine fracture fixations were developed. However, complex wear modes on the surface may cause undesired reactions from neighboring tissues, leading to a serious inflammation of the human body. …”

Piezoelectric single crystal based one-dimensional phased array for breast tissue imaging by Du, Wenya

“…In this thesis, I propose a conformable ultrasound breast patch (cUSBr-Patch) consisting of a one-dimensional (1D) phased array and a nature-inspired patch design, which offers large-area, deep tissue scanning and multi-angle, repeatable breast imaging while avoiding the drawbacks of conventional ultrasound imaging technologies. I used a Yb/Bi-doped PIN-PMN-PT single crystal as the active element due to its superior piezoelectric properties (d33 = 2,800 pC/N, εr = 7,000, k33 = 0.93). …”

Local-flexural interactive buckling of S690 high strength steel slender welded I-section columns: testing, modelling and design by Sun, Yao, Liang, Yating, Su, Andi, Zhao, Ou

“…A testing programme, adopting two S690 high strength steel slender welded I-sections, was firstly conducted and included initial geometric imperfection measurements and ten pin-ended column tests. The testing programme was accompanied by a numerical modelling programme, where finite element models were developed and validated against the test results and then employed to perform parametric studies to generate further numerical data over a wide range of cross-section dimensions and member effective lengths. …”
