A team of polymer science and engineering researchers has demonstrated for the first time that the positions of tiny, flat, solid objects integrated in nanometrically thin membranes - resembling those ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract For a class of variational integrals from 2D nonlinear elasticity, we prove that any $W^{2,2}\cap C^{1 ...

In the paper, we consider an equilibrium problem for a 2D elastic body with thin Euler-Bernoulli and Timoshenko elastic inclusions. It is assumed that inclusions have a joint point, and we analyze a ...

The objective of this course is to introduce graduate and senior undergraduate students to advanced topics in linear elasticity. Students will build on the knowledge gained through all mechanics ...

Two particles with different masses collide elastically. Show that in the centre-of-mass reference frame the final speeds of the two balls are the same as before the collision. In the centre-of-mass ...

Polymers inside what we call plastics are long thin molecules tangled together – so one-dimensional molecules. Scientists at MIT have managed to make a two-dimensional polymer, which lays down in ...

A new collection of chemically diverse dome-celled ultralight aerogels with high porosity and very low density feature elasticity and mechanical properties that remain intact even under extreme ...

NICE has developed a Medtech Innovation Briefing (MIB) on Aixplorer ShearWave Elastography for ultrasound imaging and assessing suspicious breast lesions. The Aixplorer system's ShearWave Elastography ...
