Computational Systems Mechanobiology of Tumor-Induced Angiogenesis
(University of Waterloo, 2019-05-21)Tumour-induced angiogenesis is affected by an interplay between different cell types, the mechanical stresses in the extracellular matrix (ECM), and the cell signalling networks. The morphology of the newly-created cells ... -
Contributors to Proximal Femur Fracture Force: Multiscale Considerations of Rate, Toughness, and Bone Composition
(University of Waterloo, 2022-06-09)Fall-related hip fractures are a major concern facing the older adult population, especially as rates of these injuries increasing worldwide. Based on the strong positive relationship between femoral areal bone mineral ... -
Experimental Investigation and Multi-scale Modeling of Strain Localization, Shear Banding and Fracture in Precipitation Hardened Aluminum Alloys
(University of Waterloo, 2019-05-23)Finite element (FE) simulations are widely used in automotive design processes to model the forming and crashworthiness behavior of structural materials. Comprehensive material characterization and the availability of ... -
Numerical Analysis of Crack Induced Debonding Mechanisms in FRP-Strengthened RC Beams
(University of Waterloo, 2009-01-22)The continual deterioration of infrastructure has motivated researchers to look for new ways of repairing and monitoring existing structures. A particularly challenging problem confronting engineers in the revival of the ...
