Published in 2024 at "Biomechanics and Modeling in Mechanobiology"

DOI: 10.1007/s10237-024-01821-x

Abstract: The subject-specific range of motion (RoM) of a musculoskeletal joint system is balanced by pre-tension levels of individual muscles, which affects their contraction capability. Such an inherent pre-tension or pre-stretch of muscles is not measureable… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Methods"

DOI: 10.1016/j.ymeth.2020.01.021

Abstract: Cytoplasmic dynein is responsible for intra-cellular transport in eukaryotic cells. Using Fluctuating Finite Element Analysis (FFEA), a novel algorithm that represents proteins as continuum viscoelastic solids subject to thermal noise, we are building computational tools… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Mathematics and Mechanics of Solids"

DOI: 10.1177/10812865221107413

Abstract: The oscillon is a highly localized dynamical phenomenon occurring in a thin horizontal layer of granular material, which rests on a rigid plate oscillating in the vertical direction. The geometry is axially symmetric and physically… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "Frontiers in Plant Science"

DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2022.994320

Abstract: Stephania japonica is a slender climbing plant with peltate, triangular-ovate leaves. Not many research efforts have been devoted to investigate the anatomy and the mechanical properties of this type of leaf shape. In this study,… read more here.
