Conceptual-level evaluation of a variable stiffness skin for a morphing wing leading edge [PDF]
, 2019 A morphing leading edge produces a continuous aerodynamic surface that has no gaps between the moving and fixed parts. The continuous seamless shape has the potential to reduce drag, compared to conventional devices, such as slats that produce a discrete

Initial bFGF Distribution Affects the Depth of Three-dimensional Microvessel Networks in Vitro
Journal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2006 Control of three-dimensional (3D) microvessel formation is critical for regenerative medicine and tissue engineering because vessels are essential for the formation and maintenance of organ function. In order to function, tissues need an internal network
