Different structures have different functions or purposes. The individual parts of any structure need to be selected, arranged and fixed together carefully to make sure the structure carries out its ...

Finite element analysis (FEA) of shell structures encompasses the numerical simulation of thin‐walled, curved bodies subject to mechanical loads and environmental effects. Shell elements combine ...

Nanomaterials with core-shell architectures are prominent examples of strain-engineered materials. The lattice mismatch between the core and shell materials can cause strong interface strain, which ...
