A Micromechanical Model of Lung Tissue Rheology

Annals of Biomedical Engineering, 1998
The rheological properties of lung tissue are complex and nonlinear and contribute significantly to both the elastic and dissipative mechanical properties of the lung. Nevertheless, there remain large gaps in our understanding of precisely how the bulk rheological behavior of lung tissue is linked to the properties of its constituents and their ...

Cochlear micromechanics—A physical model of transduction

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1980
One of the basic questions which has persisted in the field of hearing theory is the still unresolved mechanical action of hair-cell transduction. The fundamental problem that has historically plagued researches is the discrepancy between mechanically measured tuning of basilar membrane motion and neurally measured tuning.

Modelling cochlear micromechanics [PDF]

, 2007
An active mechanism, the cochlear amplifier, enhances the response of the cochlea to low-level stimuli and is assumed to be controlled by the action of the outer hair cells (OHCs) located within the organ of Corti. Classical models of the cochlea use an array of isolated lumped parameter systems along its length, coupled through the cochlear fluid ...

Tunnel Excavation Modeling with Micromechanical Approaches

2011
A zone with significant irreversible deformations and significant changes in flow and transport properties is expected to be formed around underground excavation in the deep geological layers considered for the high level radioactive waste disposal. The present study concerns the modeling of this phenomena by a micromechanical damage model, based on a ...

Micromechanics modeling of smart composites

Composites Part A: Applied Science and Manufacturing, 1999
This paper discusses a summary of analytical modeling as applied to selected smart composites which include piezoelectric composites, shape memory alloy (SMA) fiber composites, and piezoresistive composites. First we discuss the definition of ‘smart materials’ which exhibit coupling among mechanical, thermal and electromagnetic behavior, then the ...

Evolution of Microstructures and A Micromechanical Model

1995
The mechanical properties of geomaterials strongly depend on the microstructures and its micro-evolution mode. From the view of micromechanics, a lot of micro-slips and rotations of particles for particulate materials are the fundamental of their macro-deformation.

Micromechanical modelling of polymeric composites

Polymer, 1994
Abstract The community of scientists and engineers associated with composite materials has reached a level of understanding of composite material systems such that we can now consider how composite material systems should be made, not just how they can be made.
