    Cell-matrix's Response to Mechanical Forces01:13

    Cell-matrix's Response to Mechanical Forces

    In animal cells, the extracellular matrix allows cells within tissues to withstand external stresses and transmits signals from the outside of the cell to the inside. The extracellular matrix is extensive, and its composition varies between different types of tissues. For example, the reticular fibers and ground substance make up the ECM in loose connective tissue, while collagen and bone minerals make up the ECM of bone tissue.

    Tension Response at Adherens Junctions01:26

    Tension Response at Adherens Junctions

    The adherens junctions that anchor cells together are multi-protein complexes that dynamically adapt to mechanical stimuli such as tensile forces and shear stress. Mechanosensory proteins in these junctions can sense such mechanical stimuli and undergo a shift in their conformation, resulting in an altered function — a process called mechanotransduction.
    α-Catenin as a Mechanosensory Protein
    The α-catenin of adherens junctions is an allosteric protein with three VH (vinculin...

    Stress: General Loading Conditions01:15

    Stress: General Loading Conditions

    To grasp the intricacy of real-world conditions where multiple loads are applied simultaneously to a structure, one might visualize a section passing through a specific point within a body, aligned parallel to the xy plane. This section is subjected to various forces, including original loads, normal forces, and shearing forces.
    The shearing force, possessing potential directionality within the plane of the section, is simplified into two component forces running parallel to the x and y axes....

    Actin Filament Depolymerization01:19

    Actin Filament Depolymerization

    Actin filaments (F-actin) are composed of actin subunits. The dissociation of actin monomers can occur from either end of F-actin. The rate of dissociation is faster from the minus-end or the pointed end, where the actin subunits exist with a bound ADP, together known as ADP-actin. The depolymerization of F-actin is aided by proteins, including the actin-depolymerizing factor (ADF) and cofilin family of proteins, gelsolin, and glia maturation factor (GMF).
    In F-actin, the ADF/cofilin proteins...

    Bending of Members Made of Several Materials

    In analyzing a structural member composed of two different materials with identical cross-sectional areas, it is crucial to understand how their distinct elastic properties affect the member's response under load. The analysis involves assessing stress and strain distributions using the transformed section concept, which accounts for variations in material properties.
    Hooke's Law determines stress in each material, stating that stress is proportional to strain but varies due to each...

    Plastic Behavior01:21

    Plastic Behavior

    A material's elastic behavior is characterized by the disappearance of stress once the load is removed, allowing the material to return to its original state. However, when stress surpasses the yield point, yielding commences, marking the onset of plastic deformation or permanent set. This change from elastic to plastic behavior is influenced by the peak stress value and the duration before the load is removed. An intriguing observation occurs when a specimen is loaded, unloaded, and...
