This thesis describes measurements of the mechanical properties on the nanoscale. Three different mesoscopic tubular objects were studied: MoS2 nanotubes, carbon nanotubes and microtubules. The main goal was to investigate the interplay between the fine st ...
Physical properties including the equation of state, elasticity, and shear strength of pyrite have been measured by a series of X-ray diffraction in diamond-anvil cells at pressures up to 50 GPa. A Birch-Murnaghan equation of state fit to the quasi hydrost ...
The cell nucleus plays a central role in the response of the endothelium to mechanical forces, possibly by deforming during cellular adaptation. The goal of this work was to precisely quantify the mechanical properties of the nucleus. Individual endothelia ...
Identification of a Strain Energy Function (SEF) is used when describing the complex mechanical properties of soft biological tissues such as the arterial wall. Classic SEFs, such as the one proposed by Chuong and Fung (J. Biomech. Eng. 105(3) (1983) 268), ...
Fabrication of a millinewton force sensor, which is based on LTCC technology as an alternative to the widely used alumina (Al2O3) is described. The new sensor, integrated with piezoresistor thick-film, has shown an increase in the sensitivity by two times ...
We use multispeckle dynamic light scattering to measure the dynamic structure factor, f (q, τ), of gels formed by aggregation of colloids. Although the gel is an elastic solid, f (q, τ) nearly completely decays on long time scales, with an unusual form, f ...
In this paper, the stability of a displacement sensor assembled with Sn96 (tin- silver) solder, Sn62 (tin-leadsilver) solder or conductive silver-loaded epoxy glue was compared. In the absence of humidity or thermal cycling, the glue was found to be much b ...
