In view of their good mechanical properties, Si C N films seem to be useful coatings for improving surface mechanics of engineering materials.
Race surface mechanics contribute to musculoskeletal injury in racehorses.
The plasma membrane and the actomyosin cortex control surface mechanics and determine cell surface tension.
The remelted tracks were then evaluated from the surface mechanics point of view through microhardness and sliding friction tests.
We study the finite plane deformations of a particular harmonic material surrounding an elliptical hole whose boundary incorporates the contribution of surface mechanics.
Numerical results are presented to examine effects and the stress disturbances caused by the coupling of surface loads and surface mechanics.
In §III, we mainly address the multiscale mechanics of biological nanocomposites, biological adhesive surface mechanics, wetting and dewetting phenomena on microstructured solid surfaces.
It is needed to notice that due to fluid surface mechanics, i.e., reversal of the meniscus surface when changing from rising to falling liquid levels or vice versa, a hysteresis effect occurs in the measurements.
