Journal ArticleDOI
Anisotropy, size, and aspect ratio effects on micropillar compression of Al-SiC nanolaminate composites
Carl R. Mayer,Lingwei Yang,Sudhanshu S. Singh,Javier LLorca,Javier LLorca,Jon M. Molina-Aldareguia,Yu-Lin Shen,Nikhilesh Chawla +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, Micropillar compression was used to characterize the mechanical behavior of Al SiC multilayers in different orientations including loading at 0°, 45° and 90° with respect to the direction of the layers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of layer thickness on the high temperature mechanical properties of Al/SiC nanolaminates
Saeid Lotfian,Carl R. Mayer,Nikhilesh Chawla,Javier LLorca,Javier LLorca,Amit Misra,Jon K. Baldwin,Jon M. Molina-Aldareguia +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured the mechanical properties of composite laminates as a function of temperature by means of nanoindentation in Al/SiC nanolaminates, a model metal-ceramic nanolaminate fabricated by physical vapor deposition.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Desmosomal Cadherin Desmoglein-2 Experiences Mechanical Tension as Demonstrated by a FRET-Based Tension Biosensor Expressed in Living Cells.
Sindora Baddam,Paul T. Arsenovic,Vani Narayanan,Nicole R. Duggan,Carl R. Mayer,Shaston T. Newman,Dahlia A. Abutaleb,Abhinav Mohan,Andrew P. Kowalczyk,Daniel E. Conway +9 more
TL;DR: Results show that desmosomes experience low levels of mechanical tension in resting cells, with significantly higher forces during active loading, similar to adherens junctions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanical properties of metal-ceramic nanolaminates: Effect of constraint and temperature
Lingwei Yang,Lingwei Yang,Carl R. Mayer,Nan Li,Jon K. Baldwin,Nathan A. Mara,Nikhilesh Chawla,Jon M. Molina-Aldareguia,Javier LLorca,Javier LLorca +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the role played by the strength of the Al layers and by the elastic constraint of the ceramic layers on the plastic flow of Al in the mechanical response was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Osmotic Gradients in Epithelial Acini Increase Mechanical Tension across E-cadherin, Drive Morphogenesis, and Maintain Homeostasis.
Vani Narayanan,Laurel E. Schappell,Carl R. Mayer,Ashley A. Duke,Travis J. Armiger,Paul T. Arsenovic,Abhinav Mohan,Kris Noel Dahl,Jason P. Gleghorn,Daniel E. Conway +9 more
TL;DR: The results show that ion secretion is an important regulator of morphogenesis and homeostasis in epithelial acini and demonstrates that, for closed 3D cellular systems, ion gradients can generate osmotic pressure or volume changes, both of which result in increased cellular tension.
