## Abstract Tubular space trusses for bridge applications use thickβwalled tubes. The reduction in fatigue resistance due to geometrical size effects is thus an important issue. In order to carry out a thorough study, both fatigue tests on largeβscale specimens and advanced 3D crack propagation mod
A new theory for liquid crystalline polymers is developed, and its behavior in simple shear flow is analyzed. The theory accounts for molecular flexibility by employing a microstructure consisting of two rigid rods linked by a joint with a tunable stiffness. The probability distribution function equ
