Material forces in open system mechanics
The basic concern of the present work is the exploitation of the notion of material forces in the theoretical and computational analysis of open systems with particular application to biomechanical problems. Based on a completely dual framework for the spatial and the material motion problem, we introduce the balance equations for open system thermodynamics. In combination with the appropriate ...
متن کاملUsing optics to measure biological forces and mechanics.
Spanning all size levels, regulating biological forces and transport are fundamental life processes. Used by various investigators over the last dozen years, optical techniques offer unique advantages for studying biological forces. The most mature of these techniques, optical tweezers, or the single-beam optical trap, is commercially available and is used by numerous investigators. Although te...
متن کاملThe Structure of Time and Inertial Forces in Lagrangian Mechanics
Classically time is kept fixed for infinitesimal variations in problems in mechanics. Apparently, there appears to be no mathematical justification in the literature for this standard procedure. This can be explained canonically by unveiling the intrinsic mathematical structure of time in Lagrangian mechanics. Moreover, this structure also offers a general method to deal with inertial forces.
متن کاملAdhesion forces and mechanics in mannose-mediated acanthamoeba interactions
The human pathogenic amoeba Acanthamoeba castellanii (A. castellanii) causes severe diseases, including acanthamoeba keratitis and encephalitis. Pathogenicity arises from the killing of target-cells by an extracellular killing mechanism, where the crucial first step is the formation of a close contact between A. castellanii and the target-cell. This process is mediated by the glycocalix of the ...
متن کاملMagnetic Forces and DNA Mechanics in Multiplexed Magnetic Tweezers
Magnetic tweezers (MT) are a powerful tool for the study of DNA-enzyme interactions. Both the magnet-based manipulation and the camera-based detection used in MT are well suited for multiplexed measurements. Here, we systematically address challenges related to scaling of multiplexed magnetic tweezers (MMT) towards high levels of parallelization where large numbers of molecules (say 10(3)) are ...
