Abstract: The Young's modulus of human skin is of great interests to dermatology, cutaneous pathology, and cosmetic industry. A wearable, ultrathin, and stretchable device provides a noninvasive approach to measure the Young's modulus ...

Abstract: An elasticviscoplastic based finite element model has been developed to study the necking behavior of tube expansion for rate independent materials, rate dependent monolithic materials, and laminated materials during dynamic ...

Abstract: A mechanics model is developed for the encapsulated piezoelectric thinfilm actuators/sensors system imperfectly bonded to the human skin to simultaneously determine the Young's moduli of the epidermis and dermis as well ...

Abstract: ecause of their dependence on water, natural and human systems are highly sensitive to changes in the hydrologic cycle. The authors introduce a new measure of hydroclimatic intensity (HY-INT), which integrates metrics of ...
