A generalized micropolar bond-based Peridynamic model with shear deformability for linear
and non-linear problems is proposed. The analytical implicit formulation is derived from the …

An anisotropic model for two-dimensional electrical conduction, elasticity and fracture is
proposed in the peridynamic theoretical framework. Material points interact through elastic …

The aim of this paper is to show some typical mechanisms in the transmission of scientific
knowledge through the study of some examples. We will start by considering some ancient …

The setting of European commercial education has traditionally been addressed with
reference to higher schools of commerce and faculties of business. This has not taken into …

At the beginning of the modern era, what is now called science was spread out among
various disciplines: theology, handcrafts, magic, alchemy, astrology, medicine, natural …

This paper presents an approach to natural vibration of nano-beams by a linear elastic
constitutive law based on a mixture of local and non-local contributions, the latter based on …

The spindle barrel finishing is commonly used to improve the surface integrity of the
important parts of the high-end equipment while it is difficult to provide enough test artifacts …

Definition In young Maxwell's eyes, electricity, magnetism and fluid mechanics present
analogies that let the first be mathematically grasped in a unitary way similarly to the latter …

Fracture is the separation of an object into two or more pieces caused by crack growth under
the action of applied stress. There are many different methods for fracture evaluation has …

As water networks age, many utilities are faced with rising water main break rates and
insufficient replacement funds. Machine learning is a promising tool to support efficient water …
