Journal of Sport and Health Science, 2018 Background: Until recently it has not been possible to isolate the mechanical behavior of individual muscles during passive stretching. Muscle shear modulus (an index of muscle stiffness) measured using ultrasound shear wave elastography can be used to ...

Generating Cell Surface Nucleated Hydrogels with an Artificial Membrane‐Binding Transglutaminase
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Cell‐based therapies require advanced strategies to enhance cell delivery and bioactivity. Cell membrane engineering offers an avenue to impart new functions to delivered cells to boost their viability and function. Here, an artificial membrane‐binding transglutaminase is generated and biophysically characterized.

Elasticity near the vulcanization transition
, 1998 Signatures of the vulcanization transition--amorphous solidification induced by the random crosslinking of macromolecules--include the random localization of a fraction of the particles and the emergence of a nonzero static shear modulus.

Evolution of Shear Modulus and Fabric During Shear Deformation
Soils and Foundations, 1991 Numerical studies of shear modulus and fabric for sphere assemblies were performed by a discrete element code, TRUBAL. Results of numerical experiments were compared with physical experiments. In general, numerical experiments simulate the stress-strain behavior and shear modulus of physical results quite well both qualitatively and quantitatively ...

Elastic Moduli in Nano-Size Samples of Amorphous Solids: System Size Dependence
, 2012 This Letter is motivated by some recent experiments on pan-cake shaped nano-samples of metallic glass that indicate a decline in the measured shear modulus upon decreasing the sample radius.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A mechanically tunable hydrogel composed of gelatin, chondroitin sulfate and laminin promotes angiogenesis in vitro without the supplement of growth factors. Endothelial cells morphogenesis was further enhanced by medium conditioned with bioactive glass 58S‐released ions (Ca and Si), thus offering a promising strategy to vascularize 3D tissue ...

Dynamic Properties of Clean Sand Modified with Granulated Rubber
Advances in Civil Engineering, 2018 Waste automobile tires are used as additives or replacements instead of traditional materials in civil engineering works. In geotechnical engineering, tires are shredded to certain sizes and mixed with soil, especially used as backfill material behind ...
