(A) Exploded view and combined view of the multilayer microfluidic chip. (B) Detailed dimensional view of culture medium channels and tissue chambers. (C) Multilayer microfluidic chips fabricated by ...

When blood moves through your body, it exerts a frictional force on the walls of blood vessels. This force, known as fluid shear stress, has important effects on vascular development, function, and ...

New research has uncovered how cerebrospinal fluid dynamics in the brain play an important role in driving the spread of medulloblastoma, the most common malignant brain tumour in children. Published ...

An international research team is attracting the attention of experts in the field with computational results on the behavior of ring polymers under shear forces: They showed that for the simplest ...

Barth et al. proposed the use of acoustic perturbations to control shear thickening and analyzed how suspension viscosity varies with ultrasound field strength. Their study yielded the first ...

The offset shear strength is the shear stress endured by a material at the intersection of the shear stress versus the engineering shear strain curve, with a line parallel to a defined modulus and ...
