Finite plane deformations of elastic solids reinforced with fibers resistant to flexure: complete solution
Download2018-01-12
A model for the deformation of an elastic solid reinforced by embedded fibers is presented in which elastic resistance of the fibers to bending is incorporated. Within the framework of strain-gradient elasticity, we formulated the equilibrium equations and necessary boundary conditions which...

The Effects of Intra-membrane Viscosity on Lipid Membrane Morphology: Complete Analytical Solution
Download2018-12-15
We present a linear theory of lipid membranes which accommodates the effects of intra-membrane viscosity into the model of deformations. Within the Monge parameterization, a linearized version of the shape equation describing membrane morphology is derived. Admissible boundary conditions are...

Molecular Dynamics Simulations Correlating Mechanical Property Changes of Alumina with Atomic Voids under Triaxial Tension Loading
Download2023-05-01
Chang, Junhao, Chen, Zengtao, Hogan, James D.
The functionalization of nanoporous ceramics for applications in healthcare and defence necessitates the study of the effects of geometric structures on their fundamental mechanical properties. However, there is a lack of research on their stiffness and fracture strength along diverse directions...

Low-Cost and High-Speed Fabrication of Camouflage-Enabling Microfluidic Devices using Ultrahigh Molecular Weight Polyethylene
Download2023-08-25
Sun, Xiaoruo, Asad, Asad, Ali, Mehnab, Morita, Luka, Dolez, Patricia I., Hogan, James D., Sameoto, Dan
This study demonstrates a multi-spectrum camouflage control via microfluidic methods within a thermally and visibly semi-transparent polymer (polyethylene). Microfluidic devices have a high potential for achieving multiband camouflage including both visible and infrared (IR) spectrums because...

The Effect on Elastic Modulus of Rigid-Matrix Tubular Composite Braid Radius and Braid Angle Change Under Tensile Loading
Download2013
Melenka, Garrett W., Leung, Cheequn K., Nobes, David S., Carey, Jason P.
The objective of this paper is to assess changes in braid radius and braid angle of braided composite tubes under tensile loading using stereomicroscope digital image correlation (DIC) based optical measurement techniques. Using this approach, displacement fields were calculated and three...

Major, Paul, Carey, Jason, Russett, Shawn, Toogood, Roger, Boulanger, Pierre
Reproduction of anatomical structures by rapid prototyping has proven to be a valid adjunct for craniofacial surgery, providing alternative methods to produce prostheses and development of surgical guides. The aim of this study was to introduce a methodology to fabricate asymmetric human...

Alberta’s food processing industry is the second largest food waste producer after the household sector. Most of the waste currently produced from the food processing industry is landfilled. Decomposing landfill waste, moreover, emits greenhouse gases (GHG), which contribute to global warming. In...
