It is well-known that cell adhesion is important in many biological processes such as cell
migration and proliferation. A better understanding of the cell adhesion process will shed …

Heterogeneous intercellular coupling plays a significant role in mechanical and electrical
signal transmission in the heart. Although many studies have investigated the electrical …

It has been demonstrated that most cells of the body respond to osmotic pressure in a
systematic manner. The disruption of the collagen network in the early stages of …

Besides the elastic stiffness, the relaxation behavior of single living cells is also of interest of
various researchers when studying cell mechanics. It is hypothesized that the relaxation …

Dynamic mechanical behaviour of living cells has been described by viscoelasticity.
However, quantitation of the viscoelastic parameters for living cells is far from sophisticated …

Here we present a high-throughput, parallelized cytoindentor for local compression of live
cells. The cytoindentor uses convex lens–induced confinement (CLiC) to indent micrometer …

The application of a hyperelastic approach to simulate the tensile mechanical behavior of
wood fiber/polymer composites is proposed. This research was conducted with the purpose …

基于膜理论和细胞压痕实验, 本文提出了一种可用于分析细胞变形的新的力学模型,
通过对乳胶球和聚氯乙烯(PVC) 球进行宏观压痕试验, 理论分析以及与不同细胞压痕试验曲线的 …

This thesis developed a numerical model for simulating red blood cell shape and
deformability. The model was applied to understand how changes in membrane mechanical …

This paper proposes a mechanical model that can be used to analyze the deformation of the
cell during indentation experiments based on the membrane theory. The mechanical model …
