Breakdown of disordered media by surface loads

open access: yes, 2004
We model an interface layer connecting two parts of a solid body by N parallel elastic springs connecting two rigid blocks. We load the system by a shear force acting on the top side.

Directional shear force microscopy

open access: yesApplied Physics Letters, 2001
We describe a technique, based on shear force microscopy, that allows one to detect shear forces in a chosen direction at the nanometer scale. The lateral direction of an oscillating probe tip is determined by selecting which of the four quadrants are excited on the piezo driver.

Understanding bio‐based polymers: A study of origins, properties, biodegradation and their impact on health and the environment

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This review provides an overview of bio‐based polymer sources, their unique functional properties and their environmental impact, and addresses their role as sustainable alternatives. It discusses end‐of‐life options, including composting and anaerobic digestion for renewable energy.

Force network ensemble: a new approach to static granular matter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
An ensemble approach for force distributions in static granular packings is developed. This framework is based on the separation of packing and force scales, together with an a-priori flat measure in the force phase space under the constraints that the ...

Single‐molecule DNA flow‐stretch assays for high‐throughput DNA–protein interaction studies

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We describe an optimised single‐molecule DNA flow‐stretch assay that visualises DNA–protein interactions in real time. Linear DNA fragments are tethered to a surface and stretched by buffer flow for fluorescence imaging. Using λ and φX174 DNA, this protocol enhances reproducibility and accessibility, providing a versatile approach for studying diverse ...

Traumatic Microhemorrhages Are Not Synonymous With Axonal Injury

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diffuse axonal injury (DAI) is caused by acceleration‐deceleration forces during trauma that shear white matter tracts. Susceptibility‐weighted MRI (SWI) identifies microbleeds that are considered the radiologic hallmark of DAI and are used in clinical prognostication.

A Novel Flexible Centralized Force Sensor Based on Tri‐Axis Force Refactoring Method for Arbitrary Force Components Measurement

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems
Flexible force sensors have been widely applied in robotics for object exploring, remote controlling, and human–machine interactions. The tri‐axis force sensors for accurate measurement of normal and shear forces are generally in urgent demand.

Anisotropic shear melting and recrystallization of a two-dimensional complex (dusty) plasma

open access: yes, 2013
A two-dimensional plasma crystal was melted by suddenly applying localized shear stress. A stripe of particles in the crystal was pushed by the radiation pressure force of a laser beam.

Wave speeds and Green’s tensors for shear wave propagation in incompressible, hyperelastic materials with uniaxial stretch [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Assessing elastic material properties from shear wave propagation following an acoustic radiation force impulse (ARFI) excitation is difficult in anisotropic materials because of the complex relations among the propagation direction, shear wave ...
