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 ...
Mechanical spectroscopy measurements were performed on two types of materials: decagonal quasicrystalline Al-Cu-Fe-Cr coatings deposited on a mild steel substrate and aluminium or magnesium matrix composites reinforced with icosahedral quasicrystalline Al- ...
Crack patterns of 53 nm and 103 nm thick silicon oxide coatings on poly(ethylene terephthalate) films are analyzed under equibiaxial stress loading, by means of a bulging cell mounted under an optical microscope with stepwise pressurization of film specime ...
In an effort to better understand the plasticity of tempered martensitic steels, uniaxial tension and compression tests were carried out. The temperature dependence of both the yield stress and the post-yield stress behavior were compared, and it was shown ...
A series of polyquasicrystalline ingots with the nominal composition Al63.6Cu24.0Fe12.4 has been prepared by conventional drop casting and subsequent annealing at 1088 K for 24 h. Compression specimens prepared from the different ingots have been deformed ...

We review the nature of glass transitions and the glasses arising from a square-well potential with a narrow and deep well. Our discussion is based on the mode coupling theory (MCT), and the predictions of glasses that we make refer to the “ideal� glas ...
To characterize the dynamics of cell-substrate adhesive rupture, we used a novel micromanipulation technique, in which individual fibroblasts seized on a rigid microplate were placed into contact with a fibronectin-coated flexible microplate, then pulled a ...
The chondrocytes of adult articular cartilage rely upon transport phenomena within their avascular extracellular matrix for many biological activities. Therefore, changes in matrix structure which influence cytokine transport parameters may be an important ...
A new technique using prestressed carbon fiber laminates (CFRP – Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymers) is being developed to repair fatigue cracks or prevent fatigue cracking on riveted bridge members. High fatigue resistance and high tensile strength of carbo ...
