Bioprosthetic aortic valves have revolutionized the treatment of aortic stenosis, but their durability is limited by structural valve deterioration (SVD). This review focuses on the pericardial tissue at the heart of these valves, examining how its mechanical properties and calcification drive fatigue and failure.

Hysteretic behavior of a belt tensioner: modeling and experimental investigation [PDF]
In this paper we describe the modeling of the hysteretic behavior of belt tensioners. An initial experimental device is composed only of the tensioner by using forcing frequencies, preloads and deflection amplitudes.

Reprogrammable multi‐material smart textiles knitted from liquid crystal elastomer fibers undergo 2D and 3D deformation under thermal and photo stimuli. Circularly knitted tubular structures reversibly contract in radial and axial directions, enabling autonomous climbing, liquid release, and micro pumping.

Spindle Bearing Preload Control Using NI MyRIO
The article presents an application for controlling the preload of bearings in a model spindle system. The bearing preload will be implemented using piezoelectric elements, which allow for changing the preload of bearings during spindle operation, which ...

Electromagnetic attachment mechanism [PDF]
An electromagnetic attachment mechanism is disclosed for use as an end effector of a remote manipulator system. A pair of electromagnets, each with a U-shaped magnetic core with a pull-in coil and two holding coils, are mounted by a spring suspension ...

Coagulative granular hydrogels are composed of packed thrombin‐functionalized microgels that catalyze the conversion of fibrinogen into a secondary fibrin network, filling the interstitial voids. This bio‐inspired approach stabilizes the biomaterial to match the robustness of bulk hydrogels without compromising injectability, mimicking the initial ...

Simulace provozu bezvůlového převodu ozubenými koly s elastickými prvky [PDF]
Článek obsahuje popis jednoho z principů bezvůlového převodu ozubenými koly. Detailně je řešena konstrukce bezvůlové převodovky s předlohovými hřídeli. Vůle v záběrech ozubených kol a v ložiscích jsou vymezeny pomocí předepjaté torzní tyče.

Slowly cycling Rho kinase-dependent actomyosin cross-bridge slippage explains intrinsic high compliance of detrusor smooth muscle [PDF]
Biological soft tissues are viscoelastic because they display timeindependent pseudoelasticity and time-dependent viscosity. However, there is evidence that the bladder may also display plasticity, defined as an increase in strain that is unrecoverable ...
