It is well established that living cells and tissues respond to mechanical force stimulation such as shear stresses in the blood or interstitial flow1,2, tractional forces at cell–matrix contacts3, and cell–cell contacts4. Mechanical properties of the living cells and tissues are also known to...
which act on the cylinder wall due to the high pressure caused by the force chain structure.The results also verify that the shear velocity and the particle size influence the formation of the force chain at the critical formation conditions,leading to different distribution of the high pressure ...

Force sensor for measurement of deformation caused by shear stress in a longitudinal bored hole that acts as a cylindrical receptacle for a force transmitting component that is pressed into it. Force sensor comprises a connection part (1), a tubular middle part (2) with a dividing wall, and ...
whereas the talin siRNA-treated shear+group was comparable to the shear−groups. This result indicates that the contractile force that is exerted by most of the chondrocytes in the shear+group was ≥43 pN, the minimal required force required to induce conformational change of LAP in activatio...
Stress and temperature in subduction shear zones: Tonga and Mariana Summary. Because there is secondary sea-floor spreading in the Tonga and Mariana subduction systems, the island arcs are separate plates. Horizontal forces on the two sides of the arc must balance, and the maximum force on the...
We also show that humans carrying the PIEZO1 E756del gain-of-function mutation display a 13.2% average increase in normalized jumping height, presumably due to a higher rate of force generation or to the release of a larger amount of stored elastic energy. Further understanding of the PIEZO1...
There is almost no shear stress in the valley area, while the shear stress S12 in the peak area tends to converge with the number of thermal cycles. It is noteworthy that the shear stresses S12 in all the areas are deteriorated due to the thermal mismatch stress, except for the shear ...
It is important to be aware that the shape of this curve also depends on the test speed and on temperature. Whereas G from the stress–strain curve can be used for FEM calculations, the maximum shear strength has only limited practical importance in inferring joint behaviour. It is only an...
Measurements of conductance values of pairs of sensor, which vary proportionally to normal forces exerted on the sensor, are used to calculate a gradient vector of normal forces exerted by a body part on the sensor array, which is combined with the shear force vectors in an algorithm to ...
