The shear-based fracturing of deep fractured rocks under compression-shear loading is one of the most prevalent failure modes due to the existence of in situ stress. In order to study the shear fracture mechanical properties of fractured rocks, a double-edge cracked flattened Brazilian disc (DCFBD) sample was developed by introducing two platforms into a double-edge cracked Brazilian disc (DCBD). Extensive finite element analyses were conducted on DCFBD samples to determine the stress intensity factors (SIFs) and T-stress. A comprehensive dataset of SIFs and T-stress was obtained, which provided accurate descriptions of the compression-shear fracture tests performed on this specimen. Furthermore, the effects of the load distribution angle , dimensionless crack length , and crack inclination angle on dimensionless SIFs , , and T-stress * were discussed. It showed that the effect of load distribution angle on the dimensionless SIFs and can be disregarded when the dimensionless crack length ≥ 0.60 and load distribution angle ≤ 20°. However, it should be considered for the T-stress for larger crack inclination angles. Moreover, it was experimentally validated that the DCFBD samples with appropriate crack lengths and load distribution angles can achieve shear (true mode II) fracture, as demonstrated through a series of fracture tests conducted on these specimens. The results will advance the development of rock shear fracture testing technology.

This study compared the biomechanical behavior of three widely used dental materials-zirconia, lithium disilicate (IPS e.max CAD), and 3D-printed composite (VarseoSmile CrownPlus)- for maxillary anterior bridge restorations. Finite element analysis (FEA) was employed to evaluate the mechanical response of these materials under normal occlusal forces, replicating real clinical conditions.

Purpose: This study aims to investigate the stress distribution in bone tissue, implant, abutment, screw, and bridge restoration when the mesial implant is placed axially and the distal implant is inserted at varying angles in the posterior maxillary region with free-end partial dentition defects, using three-dimensional finite element analysis.
Materials And Methods: Cone-beam computed-tomography were utilized to create 3D reconstruction models of the maxilla. Stereolithography data of dental implants and accessories were used to design a three-unit full zirconia bridge for the maxillary model.

Aluminum alloy has been widely used in modern engineering structures due to its good corrosion resistance, light-weight, convenient processing, and recyclability. To study the bonding behavior of concrete-filled aluminum alloy tubes (CFAT) columns and obtain the bond strength formula and bond-slip constitutive model of CFAT, the push-out tests of three circular and three square CFAT specimens were conducted. The failure patterns, load-slip/strain curves and the stress distribution of the stubs were investigated.

In response to the market's increasing need for electricity and the escalating technical and environmental challenges, the Power System (PS) sector has strongly emphasised the escalating technical and ecological challenges, and the PS sector has placed a strong emphasis on integrating distributed energy resources (DERs) into distribution systems (DS). However, if not allocated optimally, integrating DERs can provide various technical topics such as power quality, stability, reliability, and voltage management concerns. Therefore, creating effective and efficient optimisation techniques to solve issues of DER integration is crucial.
