Sentence examples for maintaining mechanical strength from inspiring English sources

To address this we investigated varying slip deflocculation in order to control the resulting porosity, pore size and interconnecting window size whilst maintaining mechanical strength.

Material selection is especially important in bone tissue engineering because a supporting substrate is critical in maintaining mechanical strength and structural support as well as providing the optimal culturing environment for bone formation during the early stages of the regenerative process (Lu et al. 2003).

All tested material compositions showed hydrolytic degradation after 16 weeks in phosphate buffered saline, whereas P3HB/PCL tubes maintained mechanical strength compared to (P 3HB-co-4HB)).

In contrast to the ovariectomized control group, rats given fenofibrate and Wyeth 14643 had similar bending moment and energy absorption as the sham group at the femoral neck, indicating maintained mechanical strength in spite of the ovariectomy.

In the latter, it was proposed that the loose, ribbon-like appearance of collagen that is observed in a normal adventitia, but not aneurysmal adventitia, acts as a coherent network to maintain mechanical strength and allows for vessel dilation and that this is lost in growing aneurysms.

Devices like microneedles and the Nanopatch, require sufficient strength to puncture skin often with sharp-slender micro-scale profiles, while maintaining mechanical integrity.

As has been shown before, mechanical strength lies in the region of the A′ and G-strands but, contrary to previous suggestions, the results indicate clearly that side-chain interactions play a significant role in maintaining mechanical stability.

These criteria that radial and hoop stresses reduce dramatically when plastic deformation occurs near the end faces of hollow electrode, may help guide development of new materials for lithium-ion batteries with enhanced mechanical durability, by means of reasonable designing yield strength to maintain mechanical stress below fracture strength, thereby increasing battery life.
