Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Bioprosthetic aortic valves have revolutionized the treatment of aortic stenosis, but their durability is limited by structural valve deterioration (SVD). This review focuses on the pericardial tissue at the heart of these valves, examining how its mechanical properties and calcification drive fatigue and failure.

Non-linear Langevin model for the early-stage dynamics of electrospinning jets
, 2015 We present a non-linear Langevin model to investigate the early-stage dynamics of electrified polymer jets in electrospinning experiments. In particular, we study the effects of air drag force on the uniaxial elongation of the charged jet, right after ...

, 2015 As with many technological advances, electrospinning was not invented in a few years as a consequence of the clear demands from industry. Rather, scientists, engineers and entrepreneurs worked independently towards the general, and sometimes overlapping aims of advancing knowledge and making money.
