150-180 / 1000+ resultsresearch A Raman spectroscopy investigation of the resilience of hair cuticular scales under uniaxial stress
research Acquired morphological changes of mammalian hair scales
Mammalian hair scales change from smooth to wavy due to friction.
research Analysis of slenderizing human hair fibers surface morphology
research A modular modeling approach for investigating wool critical buckling from biologically variable along-fiber microstructure
The model helps understand how wool fiber structure affects its strength and flexibility.
research A Raman spectroscopy investigation of the resilience of hair cuticular scales under uniaxial stress
Hair cuticles remain stable and resilient under stress due to strong protein content and crosslinking.
research Mechanism research of yak hair stretching slenderization based on the changes of conformation and cell shape
Yak hair stretches mainly due to macromolecules slipping past each other.
research Friction and wear studies of human hair and skin
Human hair and skin friction vary by ethnicity, hair type, and environmental conditions.
research The Role of Interface Geometry and Appendages on the Mesoscale Mechanics of the Skin
Skin's uneven surface and hair follicles affect its stress and strain but don't change its overall strength, and help prevent the skin from peeling apart.
research Interactions between Crossed Hair Fibers at the Nanoscale
Hair fibers interact through classical forces, which are influenced by treatments and products, important for hair care and other applications.
research Marangoni effect in the water wetting of surfactant coated human hair fibers
The study found that the Marangoni effect causes the uneven wetting of surfactant-coated hair due to the surfactant moving into the water.
research The Aqualon SLT: A novel device for measuring hair stiffness and lubricity
The Aqualon SLT device measures hair stiffness and slipperiness to evaluate hair treatments.
research Monitoring of Wool Stretching Process Using Polarized Second Harmonic Generation
Stretching wool changes its structure and improves fiber alignment.
research Faculty Opinions recommendation of Symmetry breaking of tissue mechanics in wound induced hair follicle regeneration of laboratory and spiny mice.
research In-Situ Tensile Testing of Hair Fibers in An Environmental Scanning Electron Microscope (ESEM)
Hair fibers break by cuticle cell slipping, shape changing, cuticle fraying, and surface cracking when stretched under specific conditions.
research Double-Lined Frontoparietal Scleroderma en coup de sabre
The condition might be caused by genetic changes after birth.
research Function and interactions of the Ysc84/SH3yl1 family of actin- and lipid-binding proteins
The Ysc84/SH3yl1 protein family is important for cell movement and the process of taking in materials by interacting with actin and cell membranes.
research A Study of Aggregation Structures and Tensile Properties of Hair Fibers
research Insights on the mechanical behavior of keratin fibrils
Keratin's mechanical properties are influenced by hydrogen bonds and secondary structure, and can be improved with the SPD-2 peptide.
research Investigation of human hair fibers using lateral force microscopy
Hair treatments like bleaching increase friction by exposing tiny pores on the hair surface.

research Strength and Deformation Behavior of Fine-Grained Soils Reinforced with Hair Fibers and Its Application in Pavement Design
research Cutaneous Ultrastructural Features of the Flaky Skin (fsn) Mouse Mutation
The flaky skin mouse mutation is a natural model for studying human psoriasis.
research Loose anagen hair syndrome in two patients with epidermolysis bullosa simplex, Dowling-Meara type
Two patients with the same genetic mutation had both blistering skin and easily pulled out hair.
research Rethinking the mechanics of hair growth: evidence for a pulling model
research Wear characteristics of epoxy based hybrid composites reinforced with short hair fibers and glass micro spheres
Adding human hair fibers and glass micro-spheres to epoxy improves its wear resistance and strength.
research Silicones as conditioning agents in shampoos
Silicones in shampoos make hair smoother, easier to manage, and reduce friction.
research Faculty Opinions recommendation of Dermal sheath contraction powers stem cell niche relocation during hair cycle regression.
The dermal sheath's contraction is crucial for hair follicle regression and stem cell relocation.
