A mathematical model of the stomach as a soft electromyogenic biological shell is developed, which is based on detailed biological data of the structure and function of the organ. The dynamics of the spread of the wave of depolarization and concomitant stress-strain changes in the smooth muscle syncytia of the stomach were analyzed. Numerical results revealed that the fundus, the body and the a...

A minimal model of cellular mechanosensing system that consists of a single stress fiber adhering on a substrate via two focal adhesions made of catch bonds is adopted to investigate the phenomena of cell reorientation on substrates induced by an applied uniaxial cyclic stretch. The model indicates that the catch bonds in the focal adhesions experience a periodically oscillating internal force ...

The functions of caveolae, the characteristic plasma membrane invaginations, remain debated. Their abundance in cells experiencing mechanical stress led us to investigate their role in membrane-mediated mechanical response. Acute mechanical stress induced by osmotic swelling or by uniaxial stretching results in a rapid disappearance of caveolae, in a reduced caveolin/Cavin1 interaction, and in ...

Int J Exerc Sci 3(4) : 214-224, 2010. This study examined the effects of single set dynamic and static stretching on vertical jump height and hip and knee range of motion in a sample of college age recreational males. Forty-two healthy, physically active males (aged 18-24) voluntarily participated in this investigation and were randomly assigned to one of three groups (1 set of 20 seconds dynam...

Chronic contractile activation, or tone, in asthma coupled with continuous stretching due to breathing may be involved in altering the contractile function of airway smooth muscle (ASM). Previously, we (11) showed that cytoskeletal remodeling and stiffening responses to acute (2 h) localized stresses were modulated by the level of contractile activation of ASM. Here, we investigated if altered ...

It is well documented that in response to substrate stretching adhering cells alter their orientation. Generally, the cells reorient away from the direction of the maximum substrate strain, depending upon the magnitude of the substrate strain and the state of cell contractility. Theoretical models from the literature can describe only some aspects of this phenomenon. In the present study, we de...

The rheological response of polyisobutylene (PIB) solutions in Decalin and a related standard fluid Sl has been charac~~zed in dynamic oscillatory flow, step strain, step-shear rate and steady shear using a Rheometrics RDSII rheometer. The time dependence represented as a discrete spectrum of relaxation times and the strain dependence characterized as an exponential damping function have been p...

We analyze the onset of ‘necking’ and subsequent filament failure during the transient uniaxial elongation of viscoelastic fluid samples in extensional rheometers. In the limit of rapid elongation (such that no molecular relaxation occurs) the external work applied is all stored elastically and the Considère criterion originally developed in solid mechanics can be used to quantitatively predict...
