Hydrogel is a three‐dimensional cross‐linked hydrophilic network that can imbibe a large
amount of water inside its structure (up to 99% of its dry weight). Due to their unique …

As an excellent representative of a new generation of semiconductor materials, perovskite
materials are sweeping the whole photoelectric field like a storm (such as photovoltaic …

Sacrificial templates for patterning perfusable vascular networks in engineered tissues have
been constrained in architectural complexity, owing to the limitations of extrusion-based 3D …

In recent years, considerable interest has been devoted to the interactions between
cavitation bubbles and tissue-mimicking materials due to their promising applications in …

The ability of eukaryotic cells to differentiate surface stiffness is fundamental for many
processes like stem cell development. Bacteria were previously known to sense the …

Stiffness is a key property for hydrogels, affecting cellular adhesion, motility, and
differentiation, the integrity of biomedical implants, and the flexibility of wound coverings. A …

In isotropic linear elasticity, a constitutive model calibrated using a single deformation mode
(eg, compression or tension or shear) is sufficient to describe a complex three-dimensional …

This study presents a comparative investigation into differences in the mechanical properties
between two hydrogels commonly used in cartilage tissue engineering [agarose vs. poly …

Cavitation-induced shock wave, as might occur in the head during exposure to blast waves,
was investigated as a possible damage mechanism for soft brain tissues. A novel …

Accurate mechanical characterization of adherent cells and their substrates is important for
understanding the influence of mechanical properties on cells themselves. Recent …
