Formulation and application of alginate-based and soy protein isolate-stabilized emulsion gels
… In terms of emulsion macro-gel beads, their Young's modulus kept increasing during the gelling process by external gelation (i.e., dropping emulsions into CaCl2 solutions), before reaching a plateau accompanied by syneresis (i.e., water loss), shrinkage, and structural tightening. SPI …

From the Disordered Mind to the Socialized Lived Body: Agoraphobia Through the Lens of a Radical Feminist Phenomenology
… framework is developed by reading Iris Marion Young's account of women's bodily existence in a patriarchal society through Sarah Lucia Hoagland's theoretical framework of "protection and predation". The early lived experiences of agoraphobic women are then read through this theoretical …

Mothers of children with autism: current challenges and intricate dynamics influencing the quality of life and mental health of mothers caring for children with autism
… Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) and Young's (1999) framework on social inclusion and exclusion to contextualize societal attitudes towards autism over time. The analysis revealed four main themes: high caregiver burden, stress from the emotional toll of advocating for their child, …

Contact angle hysteresis and the energy principle
… A uniform gravitational field is present. The Young's Law contact angle varies along the curve in the vertical generating plane corresponding to the surface of the solid. Only a single contact line is allowed. This model is a much more general treatment of these problems than found in the …

Sensors and structured beams in optical coherence tomography
… diseased tissue or cells by measuring their Young' s modulus. Secondly, an Angular/Longitudinal Doppler OCT system (ALD-OCT) was constructed to sense the rotation of an object. Previous work has shown, it is feasible to detect a linearly moving object by Doppler OCT. However, ALD-OCT, OCT …

Polymer nanocomposites characterization by a stochastic finite elements representation
… literature are used to derive estimates of the Young's modulus (YM) and Poisson ratio (PR). The results demonstrate the success of the proposed method in quantifying the effect of the spatial randomness on the mechanical properties of PNC. The second application uses experimental information …

Experimental investigation and constitutive modeling of marine clay
… evidence, the model considers that the Young's modulus and the shear modulus of soil depend on the state of stress, while the three Poisson's ratios are practically constant. The expressions for the stress dependence of the moduli are derived by considering the conservation of energy. …

Effective Thermal Properties of Granular Porous Media: A Numerical Study using Lattice Blotzmann Methods
… This elastic deformation is a function of Young's modulus of the grains and the external compressing pressure. Based on our investigation, we observe that thermal contact resistance due to the surface roughness of grains reduces effective thermal conductivity. Elliptical packing of grains, …

MICROFABRICATION OF TITANIUM DIBORIDE PATTERNED ON SILICON SUBSTRATES FOR MONO- AND CO-CULTURE OF ENDOTHELIAL AND MESENCHYMAL STEM CELLS
… composition, surface roughness, hardness, Young’s modulus and wettability. This BioMEMS device mimics native cellular microenvironment, in terms of topology that provides mechanical support and is expected to regulate the cellular activities such as adhesion, adhesion and viability. Our …

Comparison and Correction of Multistage Triaxial Tests to Single Stage Triaxial Test for the Rock Mechanical Testing
… and Chalk) and compared the results in terms of Young’s modulus, Poisson’s ratio, stiffness, friction angle, and cohesion. We provide a detailed discussion of the techniques and measurements required to correct the MST results to those obtained from SST protocol. A single correction factor is …
