Nanoplates have been extensively utilized in the recent years for applications nanoengineering as sensors and actuators. Due to their operative nanoscale, mechanical behavior of such structures might also be influenced by inter-atomic material interactions. For these reasons, nonlocal models are usually introduced studying behavior. Sensor technology plate should formulated with coupled mechani...

© 2014 Materials Research Society MRS BULLETIN • VOLUME 39 • FEBRUARY 2014 • www.mrs.org/bulletin Introduction The development of (electro)catalytic materials has traditionally relied on the design of new compositions and structures. In principle, previously unseen and desirable properties can be obtained by perturbing the structure of existing materials with elastic strain. Uncovering the fund...

Elastic resistance bands require little space, are light and portable, but their efficacy has not yet been established for several resistance exercises. The main objective of this study was to compare the muscle activation levels induced by elastic resistance bands versus conventional resistance training equipment (dumbbells) in the upper-body resistance exercises flyes and reverse flyes. The l...

We prove continuous dependence on the intensity coefficient and continuous dependence on the external data in the theory of magneto-elasticity. We do not require the Lamé coefficients to be positive. We use logarithmic convexity arguments similar to those of Ames and Straughan (1992) in classical thermoelasticity. 1. Introduction. In recent years, much attention has been directed to the knowled...

In this paper, the vibrational and buckling analysis of a cylindrical sandwich panel with an elastic core under thermo-mechanical loadings is investigated. The modeled cylindrical sandwich panel as well as its equations of motions and boundary conditions is derived by Hamilton’s principle and the first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT). For the first time in the present study, various bound...
