Review of current indications for combined very high fluence collagen cross-linking and laser in situ keratomileusis surgery

open access: yesIndian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2013
In this brief review we will discuss the reasoning and evolution of our current use of combined very high-fluence collagen crosslinking and laser in situ keratomileusis.

Elastic Properties of Carbon Nanotubes and Nanoropes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Elastic properties of carbon nanotubes and nanoropes are investigated using an empirical force-constant model. For single and multi-wall nanotubes the elastic moduli are shown to be insensitive to details of the structure such as the helicity, the tube ...

The theory and art of corneal cross-linking

open access: yesIndian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2013
Before the discovery of corneal cross-linking (CXL), patients with keratoconus would have had to undergo corneal transplantation, or wear rigid gas permeable lenses (RGPs) that would temporarily flatten the cone, thereby improving the vision.

Saddle-splay modulus of a particle-laden fluid interface [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The scaled-particle theory equation of state for the two-dimensional hard-disk fluid on a curved surface is proposed and used to determine the saddle-splay modulus of a particle-laden fluid interface.

Comparative Study on Complex Modulus and Dynamic Modulus of High-Modulus Asphalt Mixture [PDF]

open access: yesCoatings, 2021
In the French high-modulus asphalt mixture design system, the complex modulus of the mixture under the conditions of 15 °C and 10 Hz is taken as the design index. However, in China, the dynamic modulus under the conditions of 15 °C, 10 Hz, 20 °C, 10 Hz and 45 °C, 10 Hz was taken as the stiffness modulus index of high-modulus asphalt mixture.

Nanoindentation of bone: Comparison of specimens tested in liquid and embedded in polymethylmethacrylate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Elastic modulus of bone was investigated by nanoindentation using common methods of sample preparation, data collection, and analysis, and compared to dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA: three-point bending) for the same samples. Nanoindentation (Berkovich,

Optimum Processing of Absorbable Carbon Nanofiber Reinforced Mg–Zn Composites Based on Two-Level Factorial Design

open access: yesMetals, 2021
To prevent a premature failure, absorbable magnesium implants must possess an adequate mechanical stability. Among many ways to improve the mechanical properties of magnesium is by particle reinforcement, such as using carbon nanofiber (CNF).

Mechanical Anisotropy in Austenitic NiMnGa Alloy: Nanoindentation Studies

open access: yesCrystals, 2017
: Mechanical anisotropy in an austenitic ferromagnetic shape memory alloy (SMA), Ni50Mn26.25Ga23.75, is investigated along (010), (120), (121), (231) and (232) using nanoindentation. While (010) exhibits the highest reduced modulus, Er, and hardness, H, (

Modulus on graphs as a generalization of standard graph theoretic quantities

open access: yes, 2015
This paper presents new results for the modulus of families of walks on a graph---a discrete analog of the modulus of curve families due to Beurling and Ahlfors. Particular attention is paid to the dependence of the modulus on its parameters.
