Ultrasound Neuromodulation: Mechanisms and the Potential of Multimodal Stimulation for Neuronal Function Assessment

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2020
Focused ultrasound (FUS) neuromodulation has shown that mechanical waves can interact with cell membranes and mechanosensitive ion channels, causing changes in neuronal activity.

Large bending deformations of pressurized curved tubes

open access: yesArchives of Mechanics, 2011
In this paper, the problem of large pure bending deformations of membrane is considered. The membrane is a sector of torus with a closed cross-section. This membrane is called a curved tube for short. We consider the homogenous, incompressible, isotropic

Theory and computation of higher gradient elasticity theories based on action principles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In continuum mechanics, there exists a unique theory for elasticity, which includes the first gradient of displacement. The corresponding generalization of elasticity is referred to as strain gradient elasticity or higher gradient theories, where the ...

End-to-end elasticity control of cloud-network slices [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The design of efficient elasticity control mechanisms for dynamic resource allocation is crucial to increase the efficiency of future cloud-network slice-defined systems.

ELASTIC GRAPHS [PDF]

open access: yesForum of Mathematics, Sigma, 2019
An elastic graph is a graph with an elasticity associated to each edge. It may be viewed as a network made out of ideal rubber bands. If the rubber bands are stretched on a target space there is an elastic energy. We characterize when a homotopy class of maps from one elastic graph to another is loosening, that is, decreases this elastic energy for all

Four simplified gradient elasticity models for the simulation of dispersive wave propagation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Gradient elasticity theories can be used to simulate dispersive wave propagation as it occurs in heterogeneous materials. Compared to the second-order partial differential equations of classical elasticity, in its most general format gradient elasticity ...

Rubber elasticity [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Chemical Education, 1981
Abstract Rubber elasticity may be operationally defined as very large deformability with essentially complete recoverability. In order for a material to exhibit this type of elasticity, three molecular conditions must be met: (1) the material must consist of polymeric chains, (2) the chains must be joined into a network structure, and (3) the ...

A higher order control volume based finite element method to prodict the deformation of heterogeneous materials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Materials with obvious internal structure can exhibit behaviour, under loading, that cannot be described by classical elasticity. It is therefore important to develop computational tools incorporating appropriate constitutive theories that can capture ...

Elastic Circuits [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Computer-Aided Design of Integrated Circuits and Systems, 2009
Elasticity in circuits and systems provides tolerance to variations in computation and communication delays. This paper presents a comprehensive overview of elastic circuits for those designers who are mainly familiar with synchronous design. Elasticity can be implemented both synchronously and asynchronously, although it was traditionally more often ...
