From the study of SN Gorb's data, it is concluded that there are additional indicators for structural behaviour as well as the morphological variables indicated by Gorb, and these are flexible versus fixed bases to the shafts and degrees of resilience (stiffness, the inverse of Young's modulus) of the component material.
In mechanical terms, the load-bearing capacity or quality of bone is determined by ultimate force (strength), resilience, stiffness, and toughness, and the overall quality of bone is affected by the rate of bone turnover [ 38].
Microtubules have outstanding mechanical properties, combining high resilience and stiffness.
Ideal archwires should possess a good balance of stability, stiffness, resilience, and formability [2].
The extent to which the minor membrane component determines eight modified mechanical properties, i.e. four elastic parameters (elastic limit, tangent stiffness, resilience, flexibility) and four failure parameters (strength, secant stiffness, toughness, ductility), was investigated.
Previous studies implied that nanofiber formation and nanoscale confinement of β-sheet nanocrystals of silk had fundamental roles in achieving stiffness, resilience, and fracture toughness at the microscale.
Mechanical analysis with a tensile testing device provided values of ultimate tensile strength (UTS), stiffness, and resilience.
The novel properties of nanostructured carbon nanotubes such as high surface area, good stiffness, and resilience have been explored in many engineering applications.
Springback, stiffness, formability, resilience modulus, biocompatibility, and low friction are some of the desirable characteristics of an archwire for optimum mechanical performance during orthodontic treatment [5, 6].
Artificial composites designed to mimic the structure and properties of native extracellular matrix may lead to acellular materials for soft tissue repair and replacement, which display mechanical strength, stiffness, and resilience resembling native tissue.
Although no wire is the best for the entire treatment, they must obey certain properties such as biocompatibility, formability, weldability, low coefficient of friction, resilience, shape memory, low stiffness, and high elastic limit.
