Plastic analysis in engineered structures requires ductility of structural components, which in timber structures is primarily provided by joints made of dowel-type fasteners.
Tissue engineering scaffolds are highly engineered structures that accommodate cells, facilitate their expression, and resorb to facilitate regeneration of tissue.
Thus, the layout and engineered structures involved in this new engineering technique can provide a reference design for debris flow hazard mitigation.
A finite element analysis (FEA) model to evaluate the nonlinear effects of severe dynamic loads on engineered structures requires an appropriate constitutive model of the structural material.
Modern wells, experts say, are "engineered structures" about the diameter of a paint can that are drilled rather than dug.
Governments, international organisations and water utilities are trying to find solutions that provide for growing global populations, but traditional financing of engineered structures cannot get us there alone.
Like the birds' nests that inspired them (weaver birds, in Mr. Hefer's case), these human pods are keenly engineered structures made from materials at hand.
In the field of general optics, physicists continued to work on negative-index metamaterials artificially engineered structures with negative refractive indexes.
More than almost any other architect, he was intrigued by naturally engineered structures, such as trees (which inspired the interior supports in the SC Johnson Wax building in Racine, Wisconsin).
