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: Peripheral intravenous catheters fail frequently, with some estimates of failure rates as high as 50% globally. In this letter, the potential for using force-sensitive resistors (FSRs) for ...

Abstract: We propose an enhanced iterative scheme for the precise reconstruction of piezoelectric material parameters from electric impedance and mechanical displacement measurements. It is based on ...

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 ...

The elastic responses of nuclear graphite not only depend on the graphitic content itself but are largely dictated by the microstructural constitution of the material. The types of raw materials ...

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 ...

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 ...
