The Young’s Modulus of Feather Keratin [PDF]
ABSTRACT The flexural stiffness of the rachis varies along the length of a primary feather, between primaries and between species; the possible contribution of variations in the longitudinal Young’s modulus of feather keratin to this was assessed.

Micromanipulation is a powerful technique to measure the mechanical properties of microparticles including microcapsules. For microparticles with a homogenous structure, their apparent Young’s modulus can be determined from the force versus displacement ...

Depletion of chondrocyte primary cilia reduces the compressive modulus of articular cartilage [PDF]
Primary cilia are slender, microtubule based structures found in the majority of cell types with one cilium per cell. In articular cartilage, primary cilia are required for chondrocyte mechanotransduction and the development of healthy tissue.

Young’s modulus of [111] germanium nanowires
This paper reports a diameter-independent Young’s modulus of 91.9 ± 8.2 GPa for [111] Germanium nanowires (Ge NWs). When the surface oxide layer is accounted for using a core-shell NW approximation, the YM of the Ge core approaches a near theoretical ...

Young’s modulus of nanoconfined liquids? [PDF]
In material science, bioengineering, and biology, thin liquid films and soft matter membranes play an important role in micro-lubrication, ion transport, and fundamental biological processes. Various attempts have been made to characterize the elastic properties, such as Young's modulus, of such films using Hertz theory by incorporating convoluted ...

A method for theoretical calculation of Young’s modulus and modulus shear for metals and their alloys under normal conditions based on a new model of sound wave transmission in metal [PDF]
The paper presents theoretical calculations of the values of Young’s modulus and shear modulus for single crystals of iron, chromium, and other metals and alloys based on a new model of sound transmission in metals.
