Pressure-Corrected Carotid Stiffness and Young’s Modulus: Evaluation in an Outpatient Clinic Setting [PDF]
American Journal of Hypertension, 2021 Abstract Background Conventional measures for assessing arterial stiffness are inherently pressure dependent. Whereas statistical pressure adjustment is feasible in (larger) populations, it is unsuited for the evaluation of an individual patient.

Corneal Stiffness and Modulus of Normal-Tension Glaucoma in Chinese
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 2022 To assess and compare the corneal biomechanics of normal-tension glaucoma (NTG), high-tension glaucoma (HTG), and normal controls based on stiffness and modulus. The correlations among central corneal thickness (CCT), visual field, retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness, and corneal biomechanics in glaucoma eyes were also evaluated.A prospective ...

Stiff, light, strong and ductile: nano-structured High Modulus Steel [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 AbstractStructural material development for lightweight applications aims at improving the key parameters strength, stiffness and ductility at low density, but these properties are typically mutually exclusive. Here we present how we overcome this trade-off with a new class of nano-structured steel – TiB2 composites synthesised in-situ via bulk ...

Stiffness Modulus Comparison in Trackbed Foundation Soil
International Journal of Railway, 2015 The primary function of the trackbed in a conventional railway track system is to decrease the stresses in the subgrade to be in an acceptable level. A properly designed trackbed layer performs this task adequately. Many design procedures have used assumed and/or are based on critical stiffness values of the layers obtained mostly in the field to ...

Hypercholesterolemia increases supraspinatus tendon stiffness and elastic modulus across multiple species [PDF]
Journal of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery, 2013 More than one-quarter of Americans have hypercholesterolemia and/or are being treated with cholesterol-lowering medications. Given the systemic nature of hypercholesterolemia and remaining questions regarding its effect on tendons at a local level, we sought to assess the utility of small versus large animal model systems for translational studies by ...

Regulation of Endothelial Cell Adherence and Elastic Modulus by Substrate Stiffness [PDF]
Cell Communication & Adhesion, 2015 Although substrate stiffness has been previously reported to affect various cellular aspects, such as morphology, migration, viability, growth, and cytoskeletal structure, its influence on cell adherence has not been well examined. Here, we prepared three soft, medium, and hard polyacrylamide (PAAM) substrates and utilized AFM to study substrate ...

Flexural modulus, flexural strength, and stiffness of fiber-reinforced posts
Indian Journal of Dental Research, 2009 The radiopacity degree of posts is not enough for adequate visualization during radiographic analyses. Glass fiber post with stainless steel reinforcement has been fabricated in an attempt to overcome this limitation.This study was designed to determine the influence of this metal reinforcement on the post mechanical properties.This study evaluated ...

Calculation of Measurement Uncertainty for Stiffness Modulus of Asphalt Mixture [PDF]
Journal of Civil Engineering and Architecture, 2015 Asphalt mixture is a highly heterogeneous material, which is one of the reasons for high measurements uncertainty when subjected to tests. The results of such tests are often unreliable, which may lead to making bad professional judgments. They can be avoided by carrying out reliable analyses of measurement uncertainty adequate for the research methods

A case for Tsai’s Modulus, an invariant-based approach to stiffness
Composite Structures, 2020 Abstract For the past six years, we have been benefiting from the discovery by Tsai and Melo (2014) that the trace of the plane stress stiffness matrix ( tr ( Q ) ) of an orthotropic composite is a fundamental and powerful scaling property of laminated composite materials.

Determining stiffness modulus by means of different mechanical testing
IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2019 Abstract Many research on mechanistic testing have come to likely conclusion that different test setup results in different performance. The aim of this paper is to analyse the stiffness modulus resulting from three different test setups, namely; Monotonic Uniaxial Tension Test (MUTT), Monotonic Uniaxial Compression Test (MUCT), and ...
