Sandwich structures usually consist of high-strength thin skins bonded to a significantly
thicker, less dense, and weaker core material. Sandwich structures are most useful in …

In the past few decades, due to the unique material properties of functionally graded
materials (FGM's), they have been used in various engineering industries. This article aims …

The prostheses sockets use normally composite materials which means that their
applications may be related with the human body. Therefore, it was very necessary to …

The below knee Prostheses sockets are subjected to varying loading conditions during the
gait cycle. This will cause a fatigue in the sockets due to the induced tension and …

This paper investigates the effect of heat treatment on the mechanical properties (yield and
ultimate strength, elongation, hardness, and modulus of elasticity) and dynamic …

ABSTRACT A lower limb amputation is most often caused by accidents or limb disease. The
primary purpose of socket, shank and prosthetic foot, is to provide means to replace the …

The sockets used in prostheses manufacturing are normally made from materials of high
strength/weight ratio for durability and comfort wearing purposes. The sockets may be …

This work includes analysis and experimental studies of the temperature effect on high-cycle
fatigue behavior of the steel beam coated with nanoparticles. The beams are made from AISI …

The fatigue behavior of removable partial denture is very important parameter so that it must
be invested, since, it is part of human body exposed to a variable load with time, then, lead …

Purpose: This paper develops a new analytical solution to conduct the free vibration
analysis of porous functionally graded (FG) sandwich plates based on classical plate theory …
