Modeling and Analysis of Functionally Graded Materials and Structures
Victor Birman,Larry W. Byrd +1 more
TL;DR: Diverse areas relevant to various aspects of theory and applications of FGM include homogenization of particulate FGM, heat transfer issues, stress, stability and dynamic analyses, testing, manufacturing and design, applications, and fracture.
Journal ArticleDOI
Review of current trends in research and applications of sandwich structures
TL;DR: A review of modern trends in theoretical developments, novel designs and modern applications of sandwich structures can be found in this paper, where the most recent literature published at the time of writing this review is considered, older sources are listed only on as-needed basis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Review of Mechanics of Shape Memory Alloy Structures
TL;DR: A review of constitutive theories, mechanics, and structural applications of shape memory alloys, concerned with the shape memory effect and superelasticity, which are most often discussed in the context of possible applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functional Grading of Mineral and Collagen in the Attachment of Tendon to Bone
Guy M. Genin,Alistair Kent,Victor Birman,Brigitte Wopenka,Jill D. Pasteris,Pablo J. Marquez,Stavros Thomopoulos +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a biomechanical model was developed to describe how tendon-to-bone insertion derives its mechanical properties, including a gradation in mineral concentration, measured by Raman spectroscopy; and a gradient in collagen fiber orientation measured by polarized light microscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Collagen fiber orientation at the tendon to bone insertion and its influence on stress concentrations
TL;DR: Comparison between stress concentrations in this idealized model and those in three comparison models suggests that the microstructure of the insertion serves to simultaneously reduce stress concentrations and material mass, and shield the insertion's outward splay from the highest stresses.
