In composite processing, a compressible dry fiber preform is in many cases impregnated by a molten polymeric matrix. The impregnated part is sometimes used as produced, but most often it requires a reheating step before stamping, flow molding or even paint ...
The application of traditional continuum crystal plasticity models to nanocrystalline metals is discussed and compared to a novel semi-discrete crystal plasticity model. The new model exhibits larger stress heterogeneities and greater amounts of intragranu ...
A novel approach is adopted for determining the elastic and plastic strains of individual grains within a deformed polycrystalline aggregate. In this approach, termed "multisite modeling", the deformation of a grain does not merely depend on the grain latt ...
Hydrogel microspheres, beads, and capsules of uniform size, differing in their chem. compn., have been prepd. by electrostatic complex formation of sodium alginate with divalent cations and polycations. These have served as model spheres to study the influ ...
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 ...
AIM: To propose a method for obtaining non-invasive highly accurate measurements of arterial diameter, thickness and pressure at a single location on a peripheral arm artery, and use this data to estimate the status of the arterial wall. METHODS: Diameter ...
We report a comprehensive in vitro study of the photo-oxidative stress on different biomolecular and cellular targets generated in the presence of fullerol C-60(OH)(n), a novel, fullerene-based and water-soluble sensitizer of singlet oxygen ((1)Delta(g)). ...
