The thin timepiece genre has become something of a battleground, with watch companies introducing record-breaking models at one show only to be outdone at the next. And this back-and-forth is far from ...
Walking, running, sprinting—every movement of the foot stretches the Achilles' tendon. When jumping, the loads can approach ten times the body weight. Amazingly, the connection between the heel bone ...
A straightforward failure theory based on the strengths of the fibre, matrix and interface makes it possible to predict composite failure and life directly. An easy-to-use preliminary design tool in ...
The Journal of Micromechanics and Microengineering is a peer-reviewed scientific journal that covers all aspects of microelectromechanical systems, devices and structures, as well as micromechanics, ...
“Multiscale Structural Mechanics: Top-Down Modeling of Composite Structures Using Mechanics of Structure Genome” delivers a unified approach to composites modeling based on the concept of structure ...
What happens when something keeps getting smaller and smaller? This is the type of question Empa researcher Johann Michler and his team are investigating. As a by-product of their research completely ...
Fall 2016 - Fall 2019. This award investigates the mechanics of how synthetic surfaces with micrometer-sized pillars adhere to and slide on soft and wet substrates. Micro-pillar arrays have been ...
Each region possesses a distinct architectural identity, serving as a cultural "fingerprint" that makes it uniquely recognizable. Italian design, for instance, draws from the Roman legacy using stone ...
