Abstract:
After cracking, the stiffness of the member along its length varies, which makes the calculation of deformations complicated. In a cracked member, stiffness is largest in the section within the uncracked region while remains smallest in the cracked section. This is because in the cracked section, tensile concrete does not contribute to the load carrying mechanism. However, at intermediate sections between adjacent cracks, concrete around reinforcement retains some tensile force due to the bond-action that effectively stiffens member response and reduces deflections. This effect is known as ten

Abstract:
The stiffness of articular cartilage is a nonlinear function of the strain amplitude and strain rate as well as the loading history, as a consequence of the flow of interstitial water and the stiffening of the collagen fibril network. This paper presents a full investigation of the interplay between the fluid kinetics and fibril stiffening of unconfined cartilage disks by analyzing over 200 cases with diverse material properties. The lower and upper elastic limits of the stress (under a given strain) are uniquely established by the instantaneous and equilibrium stiffness (obtained numerically

Abstract:
Tissues commonly consist of cells embedded within a fibrous biopolymer network. Whereas cell-free reconstituted biopolymer networks typically soften under applied uniaxial compression, various tissues, including liver, brain, and fat, have been observed to instead stiffen when compressed. The mechanism for this compression-stiffening effect is not yet clear. Here, we demonstrate that when a material composed of stiff inclusions embedded in a fibrous network is compressed, heterogeneous rearrangement of the inclusions can induce tension within the interstitial network, leading to a macroscopic

Abstract:
When activated muscle fibers are stretched, there is a long-lasting increase in the force. This phenomenon, referred to as “residual force enhancement,” has characteristics similar to those of the “static tension,” a long-lasting increase in force observed when muscles are stretched in the presence of Ca2+ but in the absence of myosin-actin interaction. Independent studies have suggested that these two phenomena have a common mechanism and are caused either by 1) a Ca2+-induced stiffening of titin or by 2) promoting titin binding to actin. In this study, we performed two sets of experiments in

Abstract:
The rigidity of the human foot is often described as a feature of our evolution for upright walking and is bolstered by a thick plantar aponeurosis that connects the heel to the toes. Previous descriptions of human foot function consider stretch of the plantar aponeurosis via toe extension (windlass mechanism) to stiffen the foot as it is levered against the ground for push-off during walking. In this study, we applied controlled loading to human feet in vivo , and studied foot function during the push-off phase of walking, with the aim of carefully testing how the foot is tensioned during con

Earthquake collapse of substandard reinforced concrete (RC) buildings, designed and constructed before the development of modern seismic design Codes, has triggered intense efforts by the scientific community for accurate assessment of this building stock.

Cells sense mechanical cues from the extracellular matrix to regulate cellular behavior and maintain tissue homeostasis. The nucleus has been implicated as a key mechanosensor and can directly influence chromatin organization, epigenetic modifications, and gene expression. Dysregulation of nuclear mechanosensing has been implicated in several diseases, including bone degeneration. Here, we exploit photostiffening hydrogels to manipulate nuclear mechanosensing in human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) in vitro.

The Aveston Copper and Kelly (ACK) Method has been routinely used in estimating the efficiency of the bond between the textile and cementitious matrix.

In this approach the role of interface properties which are instrumental in the simulation of the tensile response is investigated. The model simulates the tension stiffening effect of cr

Ultra-high-performance fiber reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) has improved properties over conventional concrete, such as high tensile strength, greater compressive strength and enhanced post cracking characteristics. The steel fibers in UHPFRC are recognized as providing resistance to crack widening in tension zones because of the fibers bridge adjacent cracks, which consequently enhances the tensile performance. Although, UHPFRC is capable of resisting the induced tensile stresses, it has still limitations under sustained tensile loads. It is also not well understood whether these characteristic

Abstract Cable-driven continuum robots that consist of a flexible backbone and are driven by applying tension and displacement on the cables are of interest for use in unstructured environments. Previous work has explored methods to alter the stiffness along the length of the robot via the introduction of additional cables beyond those used for actuation. The introduction of these tendons on the robot would allow the operator to adjust and increase the stiffness value at different locations by prescribing and removing a fixed pretension on the stiffening tendons.

Floquet theory is employed to determine the effects of geometric stiffening as well as relative component mass on parametric stability of mechanism response. Results indicate the exis

Abstract:
The flexure-hinge (FH) based guiding mechanism, such as fast tool servo (FTS) or micro-lens-array punching machine, is widely used in micro/nano precision engineering, due to their good linearity of stiffness. The major design advantage of FHs for this application was the absence of backlash and friction in the direction of the motion. This provides very smooth, high-precision operating characteristics without inducing evident wear which is commonly associated with high speeds or continuous operation. The dynamic model of FH can be simplified as a spring-mass-damping system, both the stiffness

The fatigue behavior was found to be similar to structural materials with a fatigue strength that decreased with increased stress and increased with increased foam density.

MD is commonly used in computational physics to determine the atomic response of nanostructures. MD stands for molecular dynamics. With theoretical basis in statistical mechanics, MD relates the thermal energy of the atom to its momentum by the equipartition theorem. Momenta of atoms in an ensemble are determined by solving Newton’s equations with inter-atomic forces derived from Lennard-Jones potentials. MD therefore assumes the atom always has heat capacity as otherwise the momenta of the atoms cannot be related to their temperature. In bulk materials, the continuum is simulated in MD by imp
