Prediction of welding residual stresses and displacements by simplified models. Experimental validation
(Elsevier, 2010-03)
Numerical simulations of welding processes are complex and computationally expensive. Several simplificative hypotheses are typically used in the simulations for time saving considerations, some of which have been explored ...

Evaluation of the stiffnesses of the Achilles tendon and soleus from the apparent stiffness of the triceps surae
(SAGE, 2015-01)
The triceps surae plays an important role in the performance of many sports. Although the apparent average mechanical properties of the triceps surae may be a satisfactory parameter for estimating the training level of an ...

Influence of the size and depth of a circumferential notch on the impact behavior of streetlights. A passive-safety concept
(Elsevier, 2015-07)
Impact tests on weakened streetlights were carried out using a high energy pendulum. The weakening mechanism consists of a circumferential notch at the base of the streetlight. The objective is twofold: firstly to reduce ...

A critical study on the experimental determination of stiffness and viscosity of the human triceps surae by free vibration methods
(Sage, 2013-09)
Muscles and tendons play an important role in human performance. Their mechanical behaviour can be described by analytical/numerical models including springs and dampers. Free vibration techniques are a widely used approach ...
