Introduction: The extracellular matrix (ECM) stiffness serves as a critical biomechanical regulator of cellular behavior. However, its specific roles on lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) remains ...

Abstract: As ultra-high voltage transmission technology advances, bundle conductors are increasingly used, and their torsional stiffness significantly influence the stability problems of galloping and ...

A program that follows the finite element method with 1-D elements. This is program was created as a semester project for the class Matrix Structural Analysis - 1D finite elements of the NTUA's School ...

Abstract: Flexure hinge-based compliant mechanisms find extensive applications in micro/nano actuation, where their transmission characteristics are significantly affected by stiffness. Traditional ...

Schematic diagram depicting the mechanism of the rigid matrix regulating cell glycolysis in degenerated NPCs. In degenerated NP tissue, MRTF-A was activated by increased matrix stiffness and ...

To find the weak link of the structural stiffness is important to improve machine tool stiffness. However, how to overcome the static deformation with difficulty acquisition is a difficult problem in ...

One scene reflects the themes — A.I., fake news, transgender lives and Gen X — that make the film a classic. By Alissa Wilkinson Neo, the hero of “The Matrix,” is sure he lives in 1999. He has a green ...
