  • Cell Biology Mechanical stress is communicated between different cell types to elicit matrix remodeling (airway wall remodeling / airway epithelium / asthma / lung fibroblasts) M.
  • Cell Biology Mechanical stress is communicated between different cell types to elicit matrix remodeling M.
  • Another cause of mechanical stress is the improper placement of a fitting.
  • These forces may be insufficient to break the adhesive bonds until water arrives to replace these bonds with hydrogen bonds: Hydrolysis in combination with mechanical stress is more effective than either alone.
  • The mechanical stress is a force in the plane of film acting per unit aria of the film cross section.
