Sperm are such great swimmers because of a slender flagellum that ripples like a living whip, trading brute force for ...

The elastic modulus of thin film ZnO has been measured by attaching a Si-ZnO strip to a ceramic bimorph, deflecting the latter with an electric signal, and measuring the resonance frequencies of the ...

Young’s modulus, also known as the modulus of elasticity, is a crucial material property that defines the stiffness of a ...

CVD silicon carbide components are widely used in etching equipment, including focusing rings, gas spray heads, trays, edge ...

Innovative AI techniques in cement formulation lead to eco-friendly mixes, significantly cutting emissions and improving efficiency in construction materials.

We redevelop a theoretical model that, in conjunction with atomic force microscopy (AFM), can be used as a noninvasive method for determination of the elastic modulus of a polymer nanodroplet residing ...

Ultrasound elasticity imaging aims to reconstruct the distribution of elastic modulus (e.g., Young's modulus) within biological tissues, since the value of elastic modulus is often related to ...

Elastic modulus (E) is a property that affects directly the implant stability. It is desirable that the metal elastic modulus be as close as possible from that of the bone (around 30 GPa to the ...
