The computational methods for the Maxwell model fitting were achieved in MATLAB software. It is found that fitting precision of the two methods is very high. The method of solving linear equations needs more fitting points and more numbers of Maxwell units. It makes the program of finite element analysis complex. While the method of solving minimum value of 1-norm can obtain very high precision only using less fitting points. These methods can fit not only experimental curve of KWW function, but also the experimental data directly.展开更多

The differentio-integral equations governing the behavior of the scattering and propagation operators are utilized to reconstruct the relaxation modulus of the viscoelastic medium. A new approach, in which only the one-side measurement reflection data for one round trip through the viscoelastic layer, is developed. The numerical examples are given at the end of the paper. Ir is shown that the curves of the reconstructed moduli coincide very well with the original relaxation moduli.展开更多

In the present work, the K-W-W decay function is used to define the three types of relaxations (single α, single β relaxation and α-β co-relaxation), then their average times of relaxation are theoretically calculated from the reduced shear stress relaxation modulus and the relaxation time spectrum function H(τ). When the average time of co-relaxation, the reference temperatures (ficitive Tf and glass transition Tg) and the isostructural parameter achieved from the conditions of isostructural glass state are introduced into the reduced shear stress relaxation modulus (GT) under the equilibrium state, a set of correlations between isochoric fragility index (mvα, mvβ and mvαβ) and the coupling strength (α and β) under the reference temperatures are derived from the exact definition of isochoric fragility. So the theory of dynamic fragility for glass substances at isochoric state is developed. The theory can predict the following main features of structural relaxations and behavior of isochoric fragility: the temperature dependence of peak relaxation frequency exhibits a bifurcation with a pair of single α and single β relaxations; the temperature dependence of Stickel equation on 1/T exhibits two crossovers with VFTH(1) and VFTH(2) at the temperatures of Tf and Tg regime; there are two linear correlations between isochoric fragility index (mvα and mvβ) and the coupling strength. Fine agreements between the theoretical calculation and experimental results are obtained.展开更多

First, the elastic and viscoelastic properties of normal breast cells and cancerous breast cells were measured, showing significant differences in Young’s modulus and relaxation times between normal and cancerous breast cells. Remarkable differences in cellular topography between normal and cancerous breast cells were also revealed by AFM imaging. Next, the elastic and viscoelasitc properties of three other types of cell lines and primary normal B lymphocytes were measured; results demonstrated the potential of cellular viscoelastic properties in complementing cellular Young’s modulus for discerning different states of cells. This research provides a novel way to quantify the mechanical properties of cells by AFM, which allows investigation of the biomechanical behaviors of single cells from multiple aspects.展开更多
