## Abstract Under the influence of mechanical stress, cultured fibroblasts have a tendency to orient themselves perpendicular to the stress direction. Similar cell alignment can be induced by guiding cells along topographical clues, like microgrooves. The aim of this study was to evaluate cell beha

In many engineering applications, component surfaces are exposed to wear in a corrosive environment. Such tribo-components are usually structural elements, also supporting applied static and/or cyclic tensile loading. One example is the large hydraulic cylinder piston rods working in the splash zon
## Abstract Static stretching (SS) is commonly used to prevent or improve limited joint mobility. However, it is unclear whether the components of the muscleβtendon unit (MTU) are affected by 5βmin of SS. This study investigated the acute and prolonged effect of SS on the mechanical properties of t
