Arterial diameter enlargement is thought to be an early indicator in the progression of atherosclerosis. 1, 2 Increasing brachial artery diameter is related to conventional cardiovascular risk factors ...

Many natural cellular solids exhibit a quadratic scaling relationship between modulus and density: The distinction is that unlike cellular solids, highly porous gels are not completely mechanically ...

Material Properties: Identify the modulus of elasticity, elastic region, plastic region, yield point, and break point from the stress-strain curve. Error Analysis ...

The elastic modulus of single microfibrils from tunicate (Halocynthia papillosa) cellulose was measured by atomic force microscopy (AFM). Microfibrils with cross-sectional dimensions 8 × 20 nm and ...

Young’s modulus, also known as the elastic modulus, is a fundamental measure of a material’s stiffness. It represents the ratio of stress (force per unit area) to strain (the proportional deformation) ...

Article Views are the COUNTER-compliant sum of full text article downloads since November 2008 (both PDF and HTML) across all institutions and individuals. These metrics are regularly updated to ...

Wires obey Hooke’s law, just like springs do. When a force F is applied, it will extend some distance x, which can simply be described by the equation F = kx Whereas k for a spring is the spring ...
