Cells within tissues are continuously exposed to physical forces, including hydrostatic pressure, shear stress and compression and tension forces. The nature of these forces can change in ...

Fluids offer no permanent resistance to shearing, and they have elastic properties only under direct compression: in contrast to solids which have all three elastic moduli, fluids possess a bulk ...

Suitable for testing in compression with the proper adapters, the grips can be used from -80⁰ C to +250⁰ C (-112⁰ F to +482⁰ F) without changing lubricants. These 100 kN (22,000 lbf) and 250 kN ...
