Combined use of chondroitinase-ABC, TGF-beta 1, and collagen crosslinldng agent lysyl oxidase to engineer functional neotissues for fibiocartilage repair
(2014)Patients suffering from damaged or diseased fibrocartilages currently have no effective long-term treatment options. Despite their potential, engineered tissues suffer from inferior biomechanical integrity and an inability ... -
Development of Strong Surfaces Using Functionally Graded Composites Inspired by Natural Teeth-A Theoretical Approach
(2010)In recent years functionally-graded composites have been proposed to develop strong surfaces that can withstand high contact and frictional forces. The present work presents a new graded composite that can be used for the ... -
Digoxin and Adenosine Triphosphate Enhance the Functional Properties of Tissue-Engineered Cartilage
(2015)Toward developing engineered cartilage for the treatment of cartilage defects, achieving relevant functional properties before implantation remains a significant challenge. Various chemical and mechanical stimuli have been ... -
Hydrogen induced shear localization of the plastic flow in metals and alloys
(2001)Hydrogen enhanced localized plasticity (HELP) is a viable mechanism for hydrogen embrittlement supported by experimental observations. According to the HELP mechanism, hydrogen induced premature failures result from hydrogen ... -
On the calculation of the elastic modulus of a biofilm streamer
(2008)Biofilm mechanical properties are essential in quantifying the rate of microbial detachment, a key process in determining the function and structure of biofilm systems. Although properties such as biofilm elastic moduli, ... -
On the effect of austenite stability on high cycle fatigue of TRIP 700 steel
(2013)The high cycle fatigue behavior and the role of austenite stability on fatigue performance of low-alloy TRIP steel 700 have been experimentally investigated. The material was subjected to heat treatment in order to produce ... -
On the effect of hydrogen on plastic instabilities in metals
(2003)Experimental observations and theoretical calculations have demonstrated that hydrogen solute atoms increase the dislocation mobility in metals and alloys, thus promoting highly localized plastic processes which eventually ... -
Physico-chemical and sensory attributes in conjunction with multivariate analysis of two potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) cultivars after 90 days of storage: an exploratory authentication study
(2008)Two cultivars of potato (Spunta and Agria), were studied in terms of their physico-chemical and sensory characteristics. These cultivars were cultivated in three geographical regions of Greece (Macedonia, North Greece; ... -
The size effect of crystalline inclusions on the fracture modes in glass-ceramic materials
(2007)The main parameters influencing the mechanical performance of glass - ceramic materials are the shape and mean size of the ceramic phase, i. e. the crystalline inclusions. The aim of the present work is twofold: first, to ... -
Structural analysis using a dipolar elastic Timoshenko beam
(2013)In recent years, several non-local beam theories have emerged in trying to model stiffness and strength phenomena observed in micro-beams used in micro-mechanical systems (MEMS) and sensors. Of particular importance are ... -
Tensile and fatigue behaviour of wrought magnesium alloys AZ31 and AZ61
(2008)The mechanical behaviour of two hot rolled magnesium alloys, namely the AZ31 and AZ61, has been evaluated experimentally under both monotonic and cyclic loading. Both longitudinal (L) and long transverse (LT) directions ...
