Stiffness tomography by atomic force microscopy

Sandor Kasas, Charles Roduit

A method of analyzing a sample with a probe based measurement instrument using stiffness tomography. Stiffness or elastic modulus data obtained through contact measurement with the sample as a function of depth is used in the detection of features, particu ...

Numerical and experimental analysis of the static compliance of chiral truss-core airfoils

Alessandro Spadoni

This paper presents an innovative wing profile featuring an internal truss-like structure of chiral topology. The chiral design is selected because of its unique deformation characteristics, which produce a theoretical, in-plane Poisson's ratio of -1. Such ...

Magnetic resonance imaging and T2 relaxometry of human median nerve at 7 Tesla

Giulio Gambarota

Measurements of T2 relaxation times in tissues have provided a unique, noninvasive method to investigate the microenvironment of water molecules in vivo. As more clinical imaging is performed at higher field strengths, tissue relaxation times need to be re ...

Liver fibrosis: non-invasive assessment with MR elastography

Najat Salameh

The aim of this study was to assess the feasibility of using non-invasive MR elastography for determining the stage of liver fibrosis. Twenty-five consecutive patients who had liver biopsy for suspicion of chronic liver disease were included in the study. ...
