Primary cilia exist in a small fraction of cells in trabecular bone and marrow
(Springer, 2014-11-15)
Primary cilia are potent mechanical and chemical sensory organelles in cells of bone lineage in tissue culture. Cell culture experiments suggest that primary cilia sense fluid flow and this stimulus is translated through ...
The role of integrin αVβ3 in osteocyte mechanotransduction
(Elsevier, 2014-11-10)
Recent in vivo studies have proposed that integrin alpha(v)beta(3) attachments between osteocyte cell processes and the extracellular matrix may facilitate mechanosensation in bone. However the role of these attachments ...
Evaluation of a multiscale modelling methodology to predict the mechanical properties of PCL/β-TCP sintered scaffold materials
(Springer Verlag, 2014-12-02)
A multiscale modelling methodology to predict the macroscale stiffness of selective laser sintered polycaprolactone (PCL)/β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) materials is evaluated. The relationship between a micromechanics-evaluated ...
A unified viscoplastic model for high temperature low cycle fatigue of service-aged P91 steel
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2014-01-07)
The finite element (FE) implementation of a hyperbolic sine unified cyclic viscoplasticity model is presented. The hyperbolic sine flow rule facilitates the identification of strain-rate independent material parameters for ...
