Innovative aluminum brazing fillers with nickel and yttrium show promise for high-strength joints, balancing temperature and ...

Aim: To measure corneal and scleral radii of curvature in response to intraocular pressure (IOP). Methods: Using digital photographic profile images of 16 fresh porcine eyes, the curvatures of the ...

Abstract: Quantitative elasticity imaging seeks to retrieve spatial maps of elastic moduli of tissue. Unlike strain, which is commonly imaged in compression elastography, elastic moduli are intrinsic ...

Abstract: Solid-solid interfaces between insulating materials dictate the long-term electrical properties of the complete insulation system. This paper presents theoretical and experimental ...

Elasticity is one of the fundamental properties of alloys. Calculating various elastic constants bases on the elastic constant matrix. ABACUS cannot calculate elastic constants matrix yet. If IBRION=6 ...

The mechanism facilitating the smooth movement of the oceanic lithosphere over the underlying asthenosphere (upper mantle) remains poorly understood. Recently, researchers from Japan investigated the ...

Fibers are ubiquitous in nature. They are the building blocks of various advanced materials and natural structures, such as the cytoskeleton, artificial muscles, filamentous bacteria, DNA, carbon ...

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, Vol. 117, No. 38 (September 22, 2020), pp. 23365-23373 (9 pages) The elastic and viscous properties of biological ...

Fibrin hydrogels have proven highly suitable scaffold materials for skeletal muscle tissue engineering in the past. Certain parameters of those types of scaffolds, however, greatly affect cellular ...

Crack surfaces are usually rough on various scales, and are sensitive to loading stresses and hence significantly affecting the mechanical properties of cracked rocks. We design a number of dry- and ...

Life requires a delicate balance between cell membrane rigidity and fluidity to define cell boundaries yet enable cell deformation, growth, and division. Here, we ...
