Deteriorated biomechanical properties of human hypertrophied septum in response to cardiomyocyte enlargement, overexpressed collagen, and disarrayed microstructures by Katherine M. Copeland, Houjia Chen, Uday Chintapula, Milad Almasian, Duc Khang Chung, Alan M. Taylor, Yichen Ding, Gaurav Sharma, Michael E. Jessen, Yi Hong, Kytai T. Nguyen, Matthias Peltz, Pietro Bajona, Jun Liao

“…However, there is a lack of detailed biomechanical assessments of human hypertrophied septum and a lack of understanding of the structural-mechanical relationship between altered biomechanical properties and cellular hypertrophy, fibrotic overexpression, and microstructural disruptions. In this study, we performed thorough biomechanical and microstructural characterizations on the human hypertrophied septum and compared this with healthy septum. …”

The method of calculating the minimum creep rate of turbine blades of gas turbine engines based on the degradation of the alloy microstructure by Y. V. Petrov, O. A. Ratenko, V. K. Kharina

“…It is a common fact that turbine blades operate in challenging environment: they are affected by excessive temperatures, severe centrifugal loads, aggressive gas media, and their destruction generally occurs because of the accumulation of fatigue damage and creep. The alloy microstructure significantly degrades and deforms before macroscopic damage develops. …”

Study on the spiral microstructure defect of workpiece with a small area reduction formed via cross wedge rolling by YANG Cui-ping, ZHENG Zhen-hua, ZHOU Jing, HU Zheng-huan

“…Local deformation of workpieces is a main process characteristic of cross wedge rolling; thus, it is difficult to cross wedge rolling the workpiece with a small area reduction owing to the weak ability to flow in the axial direction and the significant deformation difference between the surface and interior. Besides the central damage of workpiece, a spiral microstructure defect in a certain depth of surface layer reduces the mechanical strength of products manufactured by cross wedge rolling. …”
