Separating viscoelasticity and poroelasticity of gels with different length and time scales
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose a method capable of separating viscoelasticity and poroelasticness of gels in various mechanical tests, and further validate the method by finite element models and stress-relaxation experiments.

Strong and tough nanofibrous hydrogel composites based on biomimetic principles
TL;DR: Electrospun gelatin nanofibres, mimicking the collagen network in native tissues, are used to strengthen and resist crack propagation in brittle alginate hydrogels, demonstrating a two-part strategy of fibre reinforcement and composite lamination in manufacturing strong and tough hydrogel with flexible microstructures to suit different mechanical and biomedical requirements.

Sensitivity of polymer nanoindentation creep measurements to experimental variables
TL;DR: In this paper, a hereditary integral formulation for creep following ramp loading was used to analyze spherical indentation data, and a wide range of conditions, including different load levels and ramp times, were employed to examine sensitivity of results to the selected experimental variables.

Microstructure and mechanics of the chorioamnion membrane with an emphasis on fracture properties.
TL;DR: Future diagnostic techniques aimed at detection of changes in membrane structure and altered mechanical stiffness or strength may allow for prefailure diagnosis of membrane weak spots, thus opening the door for potential intervention and treatment techniques for preterm membrane rupture.
