Characterization of mechanical behavior of a porcine pulmonary artery strip using a randomized uniaxial stretch and stretch-rate protocol [PDF]
Background Much of the experimental work in soft tissue mechanics has been focused on fitting approximate relations for specific tissue types from aggregate data on multiple samples of the tissue.

Stretch‐Induced Increase in Ca2+‐Spark Rate in Rabbit Atrial Cardiomyocytes Requires TRPA1 and Intact Microtubule Network [PDF]
Background Mechanical stretch of the myocardium is proarrhythmic and alters cellular Ca2+ handling, potentially involving cation nonselective mechano‐sensitive ion channels.

Histological, immunohistochemical, and morphometric analysis of negative pressure-assisted in-vivo nerve stretch-growth [PDF]
Axons respond well to mechanical stimuli and can be stretched mechanically to increase their growth rate. Although stretch growth of axons and their transient lengthening ex-vivo has been discussed in literature extensively, however, real applications of

Simulation of the stretch blow moulding process: from the modelling of the microstructure evolution to the end-use elastic properties of polyethylene terephthalate bottles [PDF]
The original publication is available at www.springerlink.comThe whole stretch blow-moulding process of PET bottles is simulated at the usual process temperature in order to predict the elastic end-use properties of the bottles.

Convective Heat Transfer Scaling of Ignition Delay and Burning Rate with Heat Flux and Stretch Rate in the Equivalent Low Stretch Apparatus [PDF]
To better evaluate the buoyant contributions to the convective cooling (or heating) inherent in normal-gravity material flammability test methods, we derive a convective heat transfer correlation that can be used to account for the forced convective ...

Pulmonary stretch receptor activity during partial liquid ventilation in cats with healthy lungs [PDF]
Aim: To study whether pulmonary stretch receptor (PSR) activity in mechanically ventilated young cats with healthy lungs during partial liquid ventilation (PLV) is different from that during gas ventilation (GV).

The ability of cells to sense and respond to mechanical signals from their surrounding microenvironments is one of the key issues in tissue engineering and regeneration, yet a fundamental study of cells with both cell observation and mechanical stimulus is challenging and should be based upon an appropriate microdevice.

Flame extinctions: Critical stretch rates and sizes [PDF]
The paper reports how experimental data from a fan-stirred explosion vessel have extended the boundary of the previously defined regime, within which stable premixed turbulent combustion occurs. It also defines the properties of the bordering regime of turbulent flame quenching.
