MECHANIZED MECHANISMS

INCOSE International Symposium, 1993
AbstractEvery progressive corporation has a set of process mechanisms in place for accomplishing its business ends. In the engineering industry most elements of these process mechanisms remain manually intensive. However, just as mechanization transformed manufacturing, so too will mechanization of manually intensive tasks advance the state of ...

FLUORIDE MECHANISMS

Dental Clinics of North America, 1999
This article discusses fluoride mechanisms in relation to dental caries. The authors specifically address firmly bound versus loosely bound fluoride; different fluoride active ingredients; fluoride and demineralization and remineralization; fluoride slow-release devices and F-releasing dental materials; antimicrobial effects of fluoride; the uptake of ...

Mechanical Mechanisms of Chemical Mechanical Polishing

Advanced Materials Research, 2008
This paper describes a mechanical mechanism of chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) and the model is applied to the polishing of silicon substrates by polyurethane pads and slurries containing fumed silica as is typically done in the manufacture of integrated circuits.

Composite Material Mechanics: Structural Mechanics

AIAA Journal, 1974
Introduction T purpose of this Survey is to review and bring together in an orderly fashion some of the principal contributions to the field of structural mechanics of structures containing composite materials. The topics of micromechanics and fracture, while quite important, are not considered in this Survey.

Pulmonary mechanics during mechanical ventilation

Respiratory Physiology & Neurobiology, 2012
The use of mechanical ventilation has become widespread in the management of hypoxic respiratory failure. Investigations of pulmonary mechanics in this clinical scenario have demonstrated that there are significant differences in compliance, resistance and gas flow when compared with normal subjects.

Molecular mechanisms of cellular mechanics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics, 2006
Mechanical forces play an essential role in cellular processes as input, output, and signals. Various protein complexes in the cell are designed to handle, transform and use such forces. For instance, proteins of muscle and the extracellular matrix can withstand considerable stretching forces, hearing-related and mechanosensory proteins can transform ...

Mechanical mechanisms for thrombosis in microvessels

2007 IEEE 33rd Annual Northeast Bioengineering Conference, 2006
The hypothesis that thrombus can be induced in curved vessels due to mechanical stimuli was tested both experimentally and computationally. Our in vivo experiments on the mesentery of Sprague-Dawley rats (250-300 g) showed that thrombi were formed in non-injured curved microvessels (post-capillary venules, 20-50 micrometer in diameter), and they were ...

Models and Mechanisms of Stomatal Mechanics

Trends in Plant Science, 2018
The mechanism of stomatal function (control of gas flux through the plant surface via regulation of pore size) is fundamentally mechanical. The material properties of the pore-forming guard cells must play a key role in setting the dynamics and degree of stomatal opening/closure, but our understanding of the molecular players involved and resultant ...
