The field of microrheology is concerned with how materials store and dissipate mechanical
energy as a function of length scale. Recent developments in the theory and instrumentation …

This paper introduces the method of live-cell multiple-particle-tracking microrheology
(MPTM), which quantifies the local mechanical properties of living cells by monitoring the …

Dynamics of poly (vinyl alcohol)(PVA) hydrogels having chemical and physical transient
cross-links simultaneously (dual cross-link PVA gels) were studied by microrheology based …

Microrheology is an emerging technique that probes mechanical response of soft material at
micro-scale. Generally, microrheology technique can be divided into active and passive …

Experiments investigating the local viscoelastic properties of a chemically cross-linked
polymer are performed on polyacrylamide solutions in the sol and the gel regimes using …

Soft matter such as liquid crystals, polymer solutions and colloidal dispersions are complex
fluids that exhibit viscoelasticity. Their macroscopic mechanical properties have been …

Among additive manufacturing (AM) techniques, laser or electron beam based processes
have been widely investigated for metallic implants. Despite the potential in manufacturing …

We studied the diffusion of gold nanoparticles within entangled solutions and gels formed by
high molecular weight (M w= 89000 g/mol) poly (vinyl alcohol)(PVA) in water by using …

The Brownian motion of colloidal particles embedded in solutions of hydrogen-bonded
supramolecular polymers has been studied using dynamic light scattering. At short times …

Bulk and solution studies revealed a strongly pronounced effect of chain structure on the
rheological and relaxation behavior of well-characterized vinyl acetate–vinyl alcohol …
