Mechanical Properties of Glass
2019This chapter focuses on the mechanical properties and behavior of glasses below their glass transition temperature. In this temperature range, they are usually seen as perfectly brittle materials: materials that deform only elastically, until they break. This chapter explores the behavior of glasses from the domain from elasticity to fracture. We first

Mechanical Properties of Viruses
2010If a virus releases its genomic content prematurely, it loses its infective capability. Yet, the viral shell does need to open at a specific place and time to ensure genome delivery into a new host. Hence, the chemical and mechanical properties of capsids are carefully tuned to fulfill these constraints.

The Mechanical Properties of Metals
Proceedings of the Physical Society. Section B, 1951A description is given of edge and screw dislocations in a close-packed cubic lattice, which leads up to an account of the theory of Frank and Read of the origin of slip bands. Consideration is then given to a crystalline grain containing Frank-Read sources; it is shown that one has to expect cross-slip and the formation of deformation bands.

Mechanical properties of the lung
British Journal of Diseases of the Chest, 1960Summary (1) The pressures developed at the mouth at different chest volumes, when relaxing against an obstruction, characterise the elastic properties of the lung and chest wall. During movement additional pressures are necessary to overcome frictional forces due to the frictional resistance of the lungs and chest wall and the resistance to ...

Mechanical Properties of Organic Nanofibers
Small, 2006AbstractIntrinsic elastic and inelastic mechanical properties of individual, self‐assembled, quasi‐single‐crystalline para‐hexaphenylene nanofibers supported on substrates with different hydrophobicities are investigated as well as the interplay between the fibers and the underlying substrates.

Mechanical Properties of Muscles
1987Skeletal muscle is made up of long fibres, terminated at each end by tendinous material attached to the bone. These fibres are formed from a syncitium of cells whose walls fuse during development, and hence have many nuclei spread throughout their length.
