Modeling Failure in Fiber-Reinforced Composite Tubes using TRUE Multiscale technology

Souza F, Castro L, Neves K, Lima L, Cornwell H, Multi, US

Finite element analysis has become increasingly important for mechanical design and the development of new advanced materials. Being able to predict structural performance accurately and efficiently can circumvent the extensive time and cost of repetitive [...]

Capture of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) using a novel micro-device

Ranjan S., Yong Z., National University of Singapore, SG

Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are metastatic cells that are detached from a tumor and are found in the blood of cancer patients. The presence of CTCs in the blood indicates the metastatic stage of cancer, [...]

Effective Elastic Moduli of Nanocomposites with Prescribed Random Orientation of Nanofibers

Buryachenko V.A., Roy A., University of Dayton Research Institute, US

Experimental research and molecular dynamic simulation proved that nanofibers can be effectively considered in the framework of continuum mechanics as the homogeneous prolate spheroidal homogeneous inclusions with a large aspect ratio. Nanocomposite is modeled as [...]
