In the quasi-static ultrasound breast elastography, the simulated displacement greatly influence the results. The breast modeling requires certain mechanical parameters for generating the simulated displacements. However, there are wide ranges of data in the existing literature for the breast mechanical parameters. Therefore, the sensitivity analysis of displacement to the changes of mechanical parameters worths a particular attention. In this paper we construct a three-dimensional (3D) breast model using magnetic resonance images. The constitutive equations corresponding to both linear elastic and hyperelastic (nonlinear) mechanical behaviors are considered. Then, two series of finite element analysis are performed in order to investigate how the changes of mechanical parameters of the fat and fibroglandular tissues may influence the displacement. The obtained results demonstrate that the displacement are generally less sensitive in the hyperelastic modeling (to the changes of material properties) than they are in the linear elastic modeling. Furthermore, the breast deformation is more influenced by the changes of material properties of fat part than the fibroglandular part.

This paper presents a multi-scale finite element model to calculate the stress field and analyze the punch shear failure of three-dimensional braided composite at high strain rates. The multi-scale model was established based on real braided structure taking the surface and corner braiding yarns into consideration. Constitutive material modeling and failure criterions were introduced into the model. Three braiding angles of 25°, 35°, and 45° were applied to reveal the relations between failure states and braided structure. The results showed that the punch shear failure states and stress distribution were greatly dependent on the strain rates and braiding angles. Nonuniform stress propagation resulted in shear bands and different formation paths were observed on the composite with different braiding angles. The ultimate failure of braided composite was determined by comprehensive action of compressive and tensile stress. In addition, the progressive damage of typical braiding yarns in different conditions was obtained from the modeling simulation. The three-dimensional braided composites with different braiding angles showed unique failure morphology. It was closely determined by the complex braided structures.

Abstract The objective of this study was to quantify pavement damage due to a conventional (385/65R22.5) and a new generation of wide-base (445/50R22.5) tires using three-dimensional (3D) finite element (FE) analysis. The investigated new generation of wide-base tires has wider treads and greater load-carrying capacity than the conventional wide-base tire. In addition, the contact patch is less sensitive to loading and is especially designed to operate at 690kPa inflation pressure at 121km/hr speed for full load of 151kN tandem axle. The developed FE models simulated the tread sizes and applicable contact pressure for each tread and utilized laboratory-measured pavement material properties. In addition, the models were calibrated and properly validated using field-measured stresses and strains. Comparison was established between the two wide-base tire types and the dual-tire assembly. Results indicated that the 445/50R22.5 wide-base tire would cause more fatigue damage, approximately the same rutting damage and less surface-initiated top-down cracking than the conventional dual-tire assembly. On the other hand, the conventional 385/65R22.5 wide-base tire, which was introduced more than two decades ago, caused the most damage.

Abstract Three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction is extensively used in microscopic applications. Reducing excessive error points and achieving accurate matching of weak texture regions have been the classical challenges for 3D microscopic vision. A Multi-ST algorithm was proposed to improve matching accuracy. The process is performed in two main stages: scaled microscopic images and regularized cost aggregation. First, microscopic image pairs with different scales were extracted according to the Gaussian pyramid criterion. Second, a novel cost aggregation approach based on the regularized multi-scale model was implemented into all scales to obtain the final cost. To evaluate the performances of the proposed Multi-ST algorithm and compare different algorithms, seven groups of images from the Middlebury dataset and four groups of experimental images obtained by a binocular microscopic system were analyzed. Disparity maps and reconstruction maps generated by the proposed approach contained more information and fewer outliers or artifacts. Furthermore, 3D reconstruction of the plug gauges using the Multi-ST algorithm showed that the error was less than 0.025 mm.

Close observation of various attachment systems in animal skins has revealed various exquisite multi-scale architectures for essential functions such as locomotion, crawling, mating, and protection from predators. Some of these adhesion systems of geckos and beetles have unique structural features (e.g. high-aspect ratio, tilted angle, and hierarchical nanostructure), resulting in mechanical interlocking mediated by van der Waals forces or liquid secretion (capillary force). In this chapter, we present an overview of recent advances in bio-inspired, artificial dry adhesives, and biomimetics in the context of nanofabrication and material properties. In addition, relevant bio-inspired structural materials, devices (clean transportation device, interlocker, biomedical skin patch, and flexible strain-gauge sensor) and microrobots are briefly introduced, which would shed light on future smart, directional, and reversible adhesion systems.

The use of the traditional fabric simulation model evidently shows that it cannot accurately reflect the material properties of the real fabric. This is against the background that the simulation result is artificial or an imitation, which leads to a low simulation equation. In order to solve such problems from occurring, there is need for a novel model that is designed to enhance the essential properties required for a flexible fabric, the simulation effect of the fabric, and the efficiency of simulation equation solving. Therefore, the improvement study results will offer a meaningful and practical understanding within the field of garment automation design, three-dimensional animation, virtual fitting to mention but a few.
