Abstract: The effects of varying percentage loadings of morpholine pre-treated cellulose nanofibrils (MCNF) and carboxymethylated cellulose nanofibrils (CMCNF) on the aqueous swelling, compressive modulus and viscoelastic properties of calcium-ion-crosslinked alginate hydrogels were investigated. In addition, the… read more here.

Abstract: Networks with as many mechanical constraints as degrees of freedom and no redundant constraints are minimally rigid or isostatic. Isostatic networks are relevant in the study of network glasses, soft matter, and sphere packings. Because… read more here.

Abstract: The meniscus is a fibrocartilaginous tissue that plays an essential role in load transmission, lubrication, and stabilization of the knee. Loss of meniscus function, through degeneration or trauma, can lead to osteoarthritis in the underlying… read more here.
