Residual stiffness characterization of FRP laminates under random block spectrum

open access: yesPolymer Testing, 2021
The fiber reinforced polymer/plastic (FRP) laminates are often subjected to random block spectrum loading in engineering. The simplified regular load in the laboratory fatigue tests is not sufficient to describe the actual fatigue damage history of FRP ...

Regulating Myoblast Phenotype Through Controlled Gel Stiffness and Degradation [PDF]

open access: yesTissue Engineering, 2007
Mechanical stiffness and degradability are important material parameters in tissue engineering. The aim of this study was to address the hypothesis that these variables regulate the function of myoblasts cultured in 2-D and 3-D microenvironments. Development of cell-interactive alginate gels with tunable degradation rates and mechanical stiffness was ...
