Article Abstract

In this Note, first, the calculation errors of elastic moduli and internal frictions using the explicit formulas in the traditional and modified piezoelectric ultrasonic composite oscillator technique (PUCOT and M-PUCOT) are comparatively studied when the frequency match condition is not satisfied. Then, new implicit formulas free of frequency match are proposed for the three-component M-PUCOT. Finally, the measurement results on a lead zirconate titanate ferroelectric ceramic from room temperature to 500 °C by using the pervious explicit formulas and the new implicit formulas are compared. The results show that when the frequency mismatch is within 15%, the induced error by using the explicit formulas is less than 0.5% and 2.5% for moduli and internal frictions, respectively. When the frequency mismatch is over 15%, the implicit formulas are suggested to improve the accuracy of M-PUCOT.

This study investigated the influence of ultrasonic treatment on the physicochemical properties of bovine serum albumin (BSA) and its applicability in stabilizing high internal phase Pickering emulsions (HIPPEs). Under optimized sonication conditions (250 W, 12 min), stable ultrasonically modified BSA (UBSA) particles were generated, exhibiting a small particle size (41.39 nm), a polydispersity index < 0.

, a traditional sitting posture requiring deep ankle plantarflexion and knee flexion, often becomes difficult after ankle fracture surgery because of restricted mobility. Increased stiffness of the tibialis anterior (TA) muscle, particularly in its deep and superficial fibres, may limit plantarflexion and affect functional recovery. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between TA muscle stiffness, assessed using shear wave elastography (SWE), and the ability to assume the seiza posture after ankle fracture surgery.

The mechanical characterization of soft particulate materials by nanoindentation based on atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a well-established technique in materials science. However, this technique is very time-consuming for micrometer-sized particles as the indenter has to be centered on the particle apex. As microgels have a broad distribution of Young's moduli, it is important to measure many particles to achieve statistically reliable data.

As the mechanomarker of cellular behavior, the elastic moduli of internal cell structures can be measured through complex experimental procedure operated on micro or nano scale. Herein, a fractional-order standard linear solid model consisting of nucleus, cytoskeleton, and cytoplasm as the load-bearing components, is proposed. By fitting this model to the cell creep curves obtained by atomic force microscope (AFM), the elastic moduli of nucleus, intermediate filaments, microtubules and membrane-cytoplasm-actin cortex composite element can be extracted.

Purpose: This study was conducted to develop a finite element analysis (FEA) model for proximal femoral nail antirotation (PFNA) fixation for intertrochanteric femoral fractures, aiming to analyze the effects of varying proximal femur trabecular bone CT values on stress distribution and device stability, as well as to determine their relationships.

Methods: We established a three-dimensional model for PFNA fixation of intertrochanteric femoral fractures based on computed tomography images. Different elastic moduli were assigned to the trabecular bone according to varying proximal femur CT values, enabling an analysis of the differences in stress distribution and maximum displacement of the model under the same loading conditions.
