Fractional viscoelastic models for power-law materials. [PDF]

open access: yesSoft Matter, 2020
Soft materials often exhibit a distinctive power-law viscoelastic response arising from broad distribution of time-scales present in their complex internal structure.

Viscoelastic Biomaterials for Tissue Regeneration

open access: yesTissue Engineering. Part C, Methods, 2022
The extracellular matrix (ECM) mechanical properties regulate key cellular processes in tissue development and regeneration. The majority of scientific investigation has focused on ECM elasticity as the primary mechanical regulator of cell and tissue ...

Deterministic transfer of two-dimensional materials by all-dry viscoelastic stamping [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The deterministic transfer of two-dimensional crystals constitutes a crucial step towards the fabrication of heterostructures based on the artificial stacking of two-dimensional materials. Moreover, controlling the positioning of two-dimensional crystals

Viscoelastic microfluidics: progress and challenges

open access: yesMicrosystems & Nanoengineering, 2020
The manipulation of cells and particles suspended in viscoelastic fluids in microchannels has drawn increasing attention, in part due to the ability for single-stream three-dimensional focusing in simple channel geometries.

Membrane viscoelasticity

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 1976
In this paper, we develop a theory for viscoelastic behavior of large membrane deformations and apply the analysis to the relaxation of projections produced by small micropipette aspiration of red cell discocytes. We show that this relaxation is dominated by the membrane viscosity and that the cytoplasmic and extracellular fluid flow have negligible ...

Chemical control of the viscoelastic properties of vinylogous urethane vitrimers

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Vinylogous urethane based vitrimers are polymer networks that have the intrinsic property to undergo network rearrangements, stress relaxation and viscoelastic flow, mediated by rapid addition/elimination reactions of free chain end amines.

Measuring nanoscale viscoelastic parameters of cells directly from AFM force-displacement curves

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Force-displacement (F-Z) curves are the most commonly used Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) mode to measure the local, nanoscale elastic properties of soft materials like living cells.
