Elastic Moduli of Avian Eggshell. [PDF]
Biology (Basel), 2021 We analyze 700 freshly-laid eggs from 58 species (22 families and 13 orders) across three orders of magnitude in egg mass. We study the elastic moduli using three metrics: (i) effective Young’s modulus, EFEM, by a combined experimental and numerical method; (ii) elastic modulus, Enano, by nanoindentation, and (iii) theoretical Young’s modulus, Etheory.

On the determination of elastic moduli of cells by AFM based indentation. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2017 The atomic force microscopy (AFM) has been widely used to measure the mechanical properties of biological cells through indentations. In most of existing studies, the cell is supposed to be linear elastic within the small strain regime when analyzing the

Broadband dynamic elastic moduli of honeycomb lattice materials: A generalized analytical approach
, 2021 A generic analytical framework is proposed to obtain the dynamic elastic moduli of lattice materials under steady-state vibration conditions. The dynamic deformation behaviour of the individual beam elements of a lattice is distinct from the behaviour ...

Predicting densities and elastic moduli of SiO2-based glasses by machine learning [PDF]
npj Computational Materials, 2019 Chemical design of SiO2-based glasses with high elastic moduli and low weight is of great interest. However, it is difficult to find a universal expression to predict the elastic moduli according to the glass composition before synthesis since the ...

Towards more realistic values of elastic moduli for volcano modelling
Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research, 2020 The accuracy of elastic analytical solutions and numerical models, widely used in volcanology to interpret surface ground deformation, depends heavily on the Young’s modulus chosen to represent the medium.
