An efficient analytical/numerical method has been developed and programmed to predict the distribution of residual stresses and springback in plane strain pure bending of functionally graded sheets at large strain, followed by unloading. The solution is facilitated by using a Lagrangian coordinate system. The study is concentrated on a power law through thickness distribution of material properties. However, the general method can be used in conjunction with any other through thickness distributions assuming that plastic yielding initiates at one of the surfaces of the sheet. Effects of material properties on the distribution of residual stresses are investigated.

Background: In adolescents and adults with tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), right ventricle (RV) electromechanical dyssynchrony (EMD) due to right bundle branch block (RBBB) is associated with reduced exercise capacity and RV dysfunction. While the development of RBBB following surgical repair of tetralogy of Fallot (rTOF) is a frequent sequela, it is not known whether EMD is present in every patient immediately following rTOF. The specific timing of the onset of RBBB following rTOF therefore provides an opportunity to assess whether acute RBBB is associated with the simultaneous acquisition of EMD.

Introduction: Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is a pregnancy related cardiomyopathy with a high potential for recovery. One of the contemporary predictors studied in cardiomyopathy is right ventricular (RV) function during initial presentation.
Purpose: This study aimed to determine the role of RV systolic function based on the various RV function parameters by two-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography (2DE) to predict PPCM recovery within 6 months of follow-up and identify the most accurate parameter among them.

The structural stability of the energetic material 2,2',4,4',6,6'-hexanitrostilbene (-HNS) under high pressure is critical for optimizing its detonation performance and low sensitivity. However, its structural response to external pressure has not been sufficiently investigated. In this study, high-pressure single-crystal X-ray diffraction data of -HNS demonstrate that the sample exhibits pronounced anisotropic strain, demonstrating an unusual negative linear compressibility (NLC) along the axis, with a coefficient of -4.

Introduction: The introduction of fifth-generation fighter aircraft has raised concerns regarding the impact of high gravitational forces on lung function. This study aimed to investigate the acute effects of controlled +Gz exposure, up to +9 Gz, on lung function in military pilots using impulse oscillometry (IOS).
Methods: These studies, conducted in Canada and the Netherlands, involved military pilots undergoing high G centrifuge training.

Understanding metastable structural transitions under beam irradiation is essential for the phase engineering of nanomaterials. However, in situ studies of beam-induced structural transitions remain challenging. This work uses an electron beam in aberration-corrected high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy to irradiate Au nanocrystals at room temperature.
