Mechanical properties of collagen fibrils.
The formation of collagen fibers from staggered subfibrils still lacks a universally accepted model. Determining the mechanical properties of single collagen fibrils (diameter 50-200 nm) provides new insights into collagen structure. In this work, the reduced modulus of collagen was measured by nanoindentation using atomic force microscopy. For individual type 1 collagen fibrils from rat tail, ...
متن کاملComputing a block incomplete LU preconditioner as the by-product of block left-looking A-biconjugation process
In this paper, we present a block version of incomplete LU preconditioner which is computed as the by-product of block A-biconjugation process. The pivot entries of this block preconditioner are one by one or two by two blocks. The L and U factors of this block preconditioner are computed separately. The block pivot selection of this preconditioner is inherited from one of the block versions of...
متن کاملAqueous counter collision using paired water jets as a novel means of preparing bio-nanofibers.
This study involved a detailed investigation of a novel approach to reducing naturally occurring cellulose fibers into nanofibers solely by the use of aqueous counter collision (ACC) without any chemical modification. In this process, equivalent aqueous suspensions of cellulose are ejected from dual nozzles and collide at high speed and pressure. Even a few repetitions of the collision process ...
متن کاملNature designs tough collagen: explaining the nanostructure of collagen fibrils.
Collagen is a protein material with superior mechanical properties. It consists of collagen fibrils composed of a staggered array of ultra-long tropocollagen (TC) molecules. Theoretical and molecular modeling suggests that this natural design of collagen fibrils maximizes the strength and provides large energy dissipation during deformation, thus creating a tough and robust material. We find th...
متن کاملThe Formation of Fibrils from Collagen Solutions
The kinetics of collagen reprecipitation from solutions of salt-extracted calf dermis in the presence of small amounts of mucopolysaccharide and nucleic acids (0.005 per cent in the final reaction mixture) has been reported by Wood (1960). The present paper is a parallel study using the same materials, and describes the electron microscopic (EM) morphology of the collagen precipitates replicate...
