Reprogrammable Mechanical Metamaterials via Passive and Active Magnetic Interactions
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.The combination of flexible matrices with embedded hard‐magnetic nodes enables metastructures with reprogrammable mechanical properties, even in the absence of external magnetic fields. The evolving interaction between nodes during structural deformation allows mechanical tunability under quasi‐static and dynamic loading, and bistable transitions. This

Effect of Estrogen on Musculoskeletal Performance and Injury Risk. [PDF]
, 2018 Estrogen has a dramatic effect on musculoskeletal function. Beyond the known relationship between estrogen and bone, it directly affects the structure and function of other musculoskeletal tissues such as muscle, tendon, and ligament.

Elastic constants of 3-, 4- and 6-connected chiral and anti-chiral honeycombs subject to uniaxial in-plane loading [PDF]
, 2010 Finite Element models are developed for the in-plane linear elastic constants of a family of honeycombs comprising arrays of cylinders connected by ligaments. Honeycombs having cylinders with 3, 4 and 6 ligaments attached to them are considered, with two

Tendon and ligament imaging [PDF]
The British Journal of Radiology, 2012 MRI and ultrasound are now widely used for the assessment of tendon and ligament abnormalities. Healthy tendons and ligaments contain high levels of collagen with a structured orientation, which gives rise to their characteristic normal imaging appearances as well as causing particular imaging artefacts.

Hydrodynamic behavior of the Pseudo-Potential lattice Boltzmann method for interfacial flows [PDF]
, 2019 The lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) is routinely employed in the simulation of complex multiphase flows comprising bulk phases separated by non-ideal interfaces. LBM is intrinsically mesoscale with an hydro-dynamic equivalence popularly set by the Chapman-

The radial and ulnar collateral ligaments of the wrist are true ligaments [PDF]
Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology, 2019 Our hypothesis in this study is that the radial and ulnar collateral ligaments of the wrist exist and are true ligaments which can be visualized by high-resolution ultrasonography (US).High-resolution US examination of the radial and ulnar collateral ligaments of the wrist was performed on 56 fresh cadaveric wrists.
