Meanings of mechanical deformation in English

Hypertension imposes an oxidant stress on the aorta and also causes mechanical deformation of the aortic wall.

This mitotic rounding relies on mechanical deformation of surrounding tissue and is driven by forces emanating from actomyosin contractility.

Among these are new model classes that include characterizations of effects of radiation and simple models of mechanical deformation of tumors.

Formation of lamellipodia and filopodia at the leading edge of motile cells requires actin polymerization induced mechanical deformation of the plasma membrane.

We characterized and systematically quantified this optically induced mechanical deformation by the geometrical aspect ratio of stretched RBC and the irreversible stretching time.

We find that both, nanometer structures and mechanical properties of the fibers respond to mechanical deformation by exhibiting strain-induced crystallization and high elongation.

We report on the design and fabrication of the polymer implant, and characterize the coatings in physiological conditions in vitro and under mechanical deformation.

Along Catoctin Mountain, however, both chemical and mechanical deformation have taken place, so that the original rock structure is completely merged into pronounced schistosity.

Extracellular ATP is released throughout the body in response to mechanical deformations.

However, no study has provided fundamental strategies for maximizing light scattering during mechanical deformations.
