Confined compression of collagen hydrogels [PDF]
Journal of Biomechanics, 2013 Reconstituted collagen hydrogels are often used for in vitro studies of cell-matrix interaction and as scaffolds for tissue engineering. Understanding the mechanical and transport behaviours of collagen hydrogels is therefore extremely important, albeit ...

A two-rescuer-method significantly alters CPR-quality during cardiopulmonary resuscitation in an airliner cabin - a randomized, controlled manikin trial [PDF]
Scientific ReportsBetween 1/15,000–1/50,000 passengers suffer in-flight medical emergencies (IFME) with cardiac arrest accounting for 0.3 %. Confined space can have a negative impact on quality of chest compressions during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), thus we have

Consolidation and Forced Elasticity in Double-Network Hydrogels
Gels, 2023 This paper discusses two observations that are unique with respect to the mechanics of double network (DN) hydrogels, forced elasticity driven by water diffusion and consolidation, which are analogous to the so-called Gough–Joule effects in rubbers.

FINITE ELEMENT MODELLING AND ANALYSIS OF CONCRETE CONFINED BY STIRRUPS IN SQUARE RC COLUMNS [PDF]
Civil Engineering Journal, 2016 Concrete confined by stirrups with greater ductility than unconfined concrete has been used widely in reinforced concrete (RC) structures and its behavior is the classic topic. As the computer power is improving, an increasing number of modelling studies
