Stability of Viscous Flow Past a Rotating Cylinder
… onset occurs via monotonically growing three-dimensional disturbances suggests existence of three-dimensional steady solutions. Such solutions would correspond to three-dimensional deformations of axisymmetric toroidal vortices generated by steady cylinder rotation in an otherwise …

Enhancement of the Dynamic Buckling Load and Analysis of Active Constrained Layer Damping with Extension and Shear Mode Piezoceramic Actuators
… by the finite element method, transient three-dimensional electroelastic deformations of a graphite-epoxy square plate sandwiched between two piezoceramic (PZT) layers. Points on the four edges of the bottom surface of the plate are restrained from moving vertically. The two opposite …

Progressive Failure Analysis of Laminated Composite Structures
… of the Puck and Schurmann's failure criteria for three-dimensional deformations of unidirectional fiber reinforced composites have been summarized. Failure modes in the matrix and the fiber are considered separately. The failure criteria are simplified for plane stress deformations. Whereas the …

Microscale actuators from carbon nanotube and hydrogel composites
… swelling/contraction into useful anisotropic deformations. Similar problems are faced with other hydrogels; the typical approach to addressing these challenges is introducing an additive material. CNTs are well known for their remarkable strength, with individual tubes showing a Young's …
