چکیده
Leaf Veins The leaf vein is the “vascular system” in plants. In article 2201220 by Kelvin W. K. Yeung, Xin Zhao, and co-workers, a leaf-vein micropattern engraved on PGLADMA polymer membrane, serving as “running tracks” for vascular endothelial cells to facilitate hierarchical functional reconstruction. membrane can induce cell differentiation, vasculature reconstruction, vessel maturation.

Metamaterials: Snapping Mechanical Metamaterials under Tension (Adv. Mater. 39/2015).
By exploiting snap-through instabilities, D. Pasini and co-workers design a damage-tolerant mechanical metamaterial that snaps sequentially under tension, thereby accommodating a very large deformation up to 150%. On page 5931, they describe how the nonlinear mechanical response of the metamaterial can be robustly programmed by tuning the architecture of its unit cell.
متن کاملassessment of vascular injuries and reconstruction
conclusions major vascular injuries in our center occurred in young men, frequently because of stab wounds. popliteal injuries mostly caused by motor vehicle accidents was the second most common arterial injury, followed by combined ulnar and radial injuries. vascular reconstruction in the first hours after trauma may prevent many unnecessary and preventable amputation procedures. results most ...

متن کاملFracture of soft elastic foam
Consisting of stretchable and flexible cell walls or ligaments, soft elastic foams exhibit extremely high fracture toughness. Using the analogy between the cellular structure and the network structure of rubbery polymers, this paper proposes a scaling law for the fracture energy of soft elastic foam. To verify the scaling law, a phase-field model for the fracture processes in soft elastic struc...
متن کاملVascular elastic laminae: anti-inflammatory properties and potential applications to arterial reconstruction.
Biomaterials, including non-biodegradable and biodegradable polymers, and collagen and fibrin matrices, have been used in experimental and clinical arterial reconstruction. While these biomaterials exhibit various characteristics suitable for arterial reconstruction, the patency of biomaterial-based arterial substitutes remains problematic because of inflammation and thrombogenesis. Endothelial...
