“…Electrospinning is a technique widely used for creating NFs due to its cost-effectiveness and flexibility. It enables precise control over the structure and composition of the fibers by utilizing electric fields to extract polymer solutions or melts into extremely fine fibers, generally on a nanoscale [ 84 , 85 ]. In the realm of therapeutic applications, electrospun NFs loaded with bioactive compounds have exhibited notable potential.…”

There is an increasing demand for innovative strategies that effectively promote osteogenesis and enhance bone regeneration. The critical process of bone regeneration involves the transformation of mesenchymal stromal cells into osteoblasts and the subsequent mineralization of the extracellular matrix, making up the complex mechanism of osteogenesis. Icariin’s diverse pharmacological properties, such as anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, and osteogenic effects, have attracted considerable attention in biomedical research. Icariin, known for its ability to stimulate bone formation, has been found to encourage the transformation of mesenchymal stromal cells into osteoblasts and improve the subsequent process of mineralization. Several studies have demonstrated the osteogenic effects of icariin, which can be attributed to its hormone-like function. It has been found to induce the expression of BMP-2 and BMP-4 mRNAs in osteoblasts and significantly upregulate Osx at low doses. Additionally, icariin promotes bone formation by stimulating the expression of pre-osteoblastic genes like Osx, RUNX2, and collagen type I. However, icariin needs to be effectively delivered to bone to perform such promising functions.Encapsulating icariin within nanoplatforms holds significant promise for promoting osteogenesis and bone regeneration through a range of intricate biological effects. When encapsulated in nanofibers or nanoparticles, icariin exerts its effects directly at the cellular level. Recalling that inflammation is a critical factor influencing bone regeneration, icariin's anti-inflammatory effects can be harnessed and amplified when encapsulated in nanoplatforms. Also, while cell adhesion and cell migration are pivotal stages of tissue regeneration, icariin-loaded nanoplatforms contribute to these processes by providing a supportive matrix for cellular attachment and movement. This review comprehensively discusses icariin-loaded nanoplatforms used for bone regeneration and osteogenesis, further presenting where the field needs to go before icariin can be used clinically.

“…Thai et al [16] presented a threedimensional numerical approach to analyze the bending and free vibration behavior of multi-directional functionally graded plates under the effect of thermal environment. Some other relevant plates were also studied to investigate their mechanical behavior [17][18][19]. As such, the vibration problem of such a structure has been thoroughly examined in the literature [20][21][22][23].…”

In the present paper, a modified Fourier series approach is developed for new precise flexural analysis of three different types of concrete plates in a rectangular sewage tank. The bending problems of the bottom plate, side-plate, and the fluid-guiding plate are not easily solved via using the traditional analytic approaches. Based on the Fourier series theory, the present approach provides a unified semi-inverse solving procedure for the above plates by means of choosing three different kinds of Fourier series as the trial functions. Although all the trial functions are quite similar to the classical Navier-form solution, new, precise analytic flexural solutions for plates without Navier-type edge conditions (all edges simply-supported) are achieved, which is mainly attributed to employing the Stoke’s transform technique. For each case, the plate-bending problems are finally altered to deal with linear algebra equations. Furthermore, owing to the orthogonality and completeness of the Fourier series, the obtained solutions perfectly satisfy both the edge conditions and the governing partial differential equation of plates, which paves an easily implemented and rational way for engineers and researchers to provide new, exact designs of plate structures. The main contribution of this study lies in the provision of a unified solution procedure for addressing complex plate-bending problems across diverse boundary conditions. By employing a range of Fourier series types, this approach offers a comprehensive solution framework that accommodates the complexities inherent in plate analysis. The correctness of the present analytic solutions is verified against precise finite element method (FEM) results and ones available in the literature. Finally, the influences of foundation, edge conditions, and aspect ratio on flexural behaviors of plates are discussed in detail.

“…However, numerical/approximate approaches also have some shortcomings, such as the huge input and output volume; the accuracy of the results heavily depends on the accuracy of the grid. Some other related studies have been conducted to investigate the properties of variable stiffness chain mail fabrics [22,23]. Additionally, experimental techniques have been employed to analyze a composite beam externally bonded with a carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic plate [24].…”

The free vibration behavior of orthotropic thin plates, which are clamped at three edges and free at one edge, is a matter of great concern in the engineering field. Various numerical/approximate approaches have been proposed for the present problem; however, lack precise analytic benchmark solutions are lacking in the literature. In the present study, we propose a modified two-dimensional Fourier series method to effectively handle free vibration problems of plates under various edge conditions. In the given solution, the adopted trial function automatically satisfies several boundary conditions. After imposing Stoke’s transformation in the trial function and letting it satisfy the remaining boundary conditions, we can change the present plate problem into calculating several systems of linear algebra equations which are easily handled. The present method can be regarded as an easily implemented, rational, and rigorous approach, as it can exactly satisfy both the governing equation and the associated edge conditions. Another advantage of the present method over other analytical approaches is that it has general applicability to various boundary conditions through the utilization of different types of Fourier series, and it can be extended for the further dynamic/static analysis of plates under different shear deformation theories. Finally, all the novel analytical solutions are confirmed to be sufficiently accurate since they match well with the FEM results. The new analytic solution obtained may serve as a benchmark for validating other numerical and approximate methods.
