TL;DR: Standardization on Shear wave ultrasound elastography technical settings will not only ensure that the results are accurate, but also detect any differences over time that may be attributed to true physiological changes.
Abstract: Standardization on Shear wave ultrasound elastography (SWUE) technical settings will not only ensure that the results are accurate, but also detect any differences over time that may be attributed to true physiological changes. The present study evaluated the variations of elastic modulus of muscle and tendon using SWUE when different technical aspects were altered. The results of this study indicated that variations of elastic modulus of muscle and tendon were found when different transducer’s pressure and region of interest (ROI)’s size were applied. No significant differences in elastic modulus of the rectus femoris muscle and patellar tendon were found with different acquisition times of the SWUE sonogram. The SWUE on the muscle and tendon should be performed with the lightest transducer’s pressure, a shorter acquisition time for the SWUE sonogram, while measuring the mean elastic modulus regardless the ROI’s size.

TL;DR: In this paper, the compressive strength, modulus of elasticity, and water permeability of IPCs depend on the mix proportions, especially the solution to ash (S/A ) ratio and the paste to aggregate (P/Agg ) ratio.

TL;DR: The ability of decorin GAGs to transfer forces between adjacent fibrils is investigated and the length of the fibril is likely to play the major role in determining stiffness in mature tendons.

TL;DR: Regression analysis showed that only three parameters, the elastic modulus, the maximum strain, and the strain intersect, are sufficient to define the nonlinear stress-strain relation up to failure.

TL;DR: In this article, a finite-element modeling of nanoindentation data is used to obtain the mechanical properties of thin films and ion-beam-modified layers independently of the properties of the underlying substrates.
Abstract: Procedures have been developed based on finite-element modeling of nanoindentation data to obtain the mechanical properties of thin films and ion-beam-modified layers independently of the properties of the underlying substrates. These procedures accurately deduce the yield strength, Young’s elastic modulus, and layer hardness from indentations as deep as 50% of the layer thickness or more. We have used these procedures to evaluate materials ranging from ion implanted metals to deposited, diamond-like carbon layers. The technique increases the applicability of indentation testing to very thin layers, composite layers, and modulated compositions. This article presents an overview of the procedures involved and illustrates them with selected examples.
