Mechanical responses of Chrysopogon zizanioides roots under cyclic loading conditions
Background and aimsData on cyclic root mechanical behaviour (i.e. roots subjected to repeated loading and unloading cycles at a given frequency) are...

An ex vivo animal model to study the effect of transverse mechanical loading on skeletal muscle
In many populations like wheelchair and prosthetic users, the soft tissue is subject to excessive or repetitive loading, making it prone to Deep...

Mechanical Loading Promotes the Migration of Endogenous Stem Cells and Chondrogenic Differentiation in a Mouse Model of Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a major health problem, characterized by progressive cartilage degeneration. Previous works have shown that mechanical loading...

A Three-Dimensional Mechanical Loading Model of Human Osteocytes in Their Native Matrix
Osteocytes are mechanosensory cells which are embedded in calcified collagenous matrix. The specific native matrix of osteocytes affects their...

Predicting altered bone biomechanics in juvenile mice: insights from microgravity simulation, loading interventions, and Raman Spectroscopy
BackgroundMicrogravity, a condition experienced in a spatial environment, poses unique challenges to the skeletal system, particularly in juvenile...

Murine Models of Tenotomy-Induced Mechanical Overloading and Tail-Suspension-Induced Mechanical Unloading
Skeletal muscle is a highly plastic tissue that can alter its mass and strength in response to mechanical stimulation, such as overloading and...

Correlations between moisture expansion and flexural properties of bamboo strips in response to different loading rates
Bamboo and bamboo products, known for their hygroscopic nature, exhibit sensitivity to different loading rates in dry conditions. However, with the...

Mechanical properties of aramid fiber reinforced polymer confined laminated bamboo lumber column under cyclic loading
This paper explores the effect of using fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) wrap on the hysteresis curve, skeleton curve, bearing capacity, stiffness and...
-
Mechanical loading recovers bone but not muscle lost during unloading
Space travel and prolonged bed rest are examples of mechanical unloading that induce significant muscle and bone loss. The compromised structure and...

Quantification of age-related changes in the structure and mechanical function of skin with multiscale imaging
The mechanical properties of skin change during aging but the relationships between structure and mechanical function remain poorly understood....

Cyclic loading effects and stability assessment of trees and stumps used as anchors in cable yarding operations
Swing yarders in running skyline configuration using either grapples or chokers represent the most common configuration for cable yarding in coastal...

Mechanical stimulation controls osteoclast function through the regulation of Ca2+-activated Cl− channel Anoctamin 1
Mechanical force loading is essential for maintaining bone homeostasis, and unloading exposure can lead to bone loss. Osteoclasts are the only bone...

Mechanical Stimulation of Adipose-Derived Stromal/Stem Cells for Functional Tissue Engineering of the Musculoskeletal System via Cyclic Hydrostatic Pressure, Simulated Microgravity, and Cyclic Tensile Strain
It is critical that human adipose-derived stromal/stem cell (hASC) tissue engineering therapies possess appropriate mechanical properties in order to...

Compression properties of Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica) treated with resin impregnation under loading perpendicular to the grain
The compression properties of wood perpendicular to the grain is an important resistance mechanism in timber joints, especially wood-to-wood joints....

Comparison of classical beam theory and finite element modelling of timber from fibre orientation data according to knot position and loading type
Timber mechanical properties assessment relies on grading methods that use non-destructive measurements in input, among which fibre orientation gives...

Transplantation of ASCs-Poly (ε-Caprolactone) Nanofiber Scaffold and Evaluate the Effect of Mechanical Loading of Walking on Articular Cartilage Repair in Sheep Model
AbstractMechanical loading influences on the chondrocyte and may promote articular cartilage repair in vivo. That is thought to play a key role in...

Selenium-SelK-GPX4 axis protects nucleus pulposus cells against mechanical overloading-induced ferroptosis and attenuates senescence of intervertebral disc
Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) is one of the most prevalent spinal degenerative disorders and imposes places heavy medical and economic...

Mechanical loading of tissue engineered skeletal muscle prevents dexamethasone induced myotube atrophy
Skeletal muscle atrophy as a consequence of acute and chronic illness, immobilisation, muscular dystrophies and aging, leads to severe muscle...
