The force-velocity relation for cardiac muscle fibers can be calculated from a proposed constitutive law based on force-time and force-length data. The calculated force-velocity relation agrees quite ...
Abstract
Propulsion technology has always been a key to the successful development of aeronautics and has enabled new air vehicles throughout the aerospace industry. Yet advancements in propulsion ha...
We present here a method to calibrate the lateral force in the atomic force microscope. This method makes use of an accurately calibrated force sensor composed of a tipless piezoresistive cantilever a...
This paper reports corrections and improvements of the previously reported direct force balance method (DFBM) developed for lateral calibration of atomic force microscopy. The DFBM method employs the ...
Edman et al. (J. General Physiol. 80 (1982) 769) observed in single fibres of frog that the steady-state forces following active fibre stretch were greater than the purely isometric force obtained at ...
