Canonical elastic moduli
Every linear planar anisotropic elastic material is equivalent, under a linear change of coordinates, to an orthotropic material. Consequently, up to linear changes of variables, there are just two "canonical" planar elastic moduli which determine the properties of any linearly elastic material. Extensions to three-dimensional elasticity and applications are indicated.
متن کاملElastic Moduli of Precompressed Pyrophyllite
Chao and Ruoff [*] have shown previously that by precompressing pyrophyllite prior to its use in high-pressure applications, one obtains a material which has a uniform density and uniform mechanical properties. We have recently studied the propagation of u trasonir nplIse~ in pyrnphyllit.p specimens to investigate the effect of specimen precompression on the.measured elastic moduli. Measurement...
متن کاملMicroRNAs involved in neoplastic transformation of liver cancer stem cells
BACKGROUND The existence of cancer stem cells in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has been verified by characterizing side population (SP) cells based on efflux of Hoechst 33342 dye from stem cells. Recent advances in microRNA (miRNA) biology have revealed that miRNAs play an important role in embryonic development and tumorigenesis. However, it is still unclear which miRNAs participate in the ne...
متن کاملEffect of photo–electron therapy on human neoplastic cells
Background: Cancer is a complex disease with high rate of mortality. At present, Radiation therapy is one of the most common procedures to overcome this situation. The deficiency of conventional method is the lack of fatal dose transmission into the malignant tissue. Hence, uncertain dose may cause regeneration of cancer cells, and relapse of the disease and invasion of the cancer cells to ...
متن کاملElastic Moduli of Ultrathin Amorphous Polymer Films
The elastic moduli of ultrathin poly(styrene) (PS) and poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) films of thickness ranging from 200 nm to 5 nm were investigated using a buckling-based metrology. Below 40 nm, the apparent modulus of the PS and PMMA films decreases dramatically, with an order of magnitude decrease compared to bulk values for the thinnest films measured. We can account for the observed dec...
