Research in nano and cell mechanics has received much attention from the scientific community as a result of society needs and government initiatives to accelerate developments in materials, manufacturing, electronics, medicine and healthcare, energy, and the environment. Engineers and scientists are currently engaging in increasingly complex scientific problems that require interdisciplinary approaches. In this regard, studies in this field draw from fundamentals in atomistic scale phenomena, biology, statistical and continuum mechanics, and multiscale modeling and experimentation. As a result, contributions in these areas are spread over a large number of specialized journals, which prompted the Editors to assemble this book. Nano and Cell Mechanics: Fundamentals and Frontiers brings together many of the new developments in the field for the first time, and covers fundamentals and frontiers in mechanics to accelerate developments in nano- and bio-technologies. Key features: • Provides an overview of recent advances in nano and cell mechanics. • Covers experimental, analytical, and computational tools used to investigate biological and nanoscale phenomena. • Covers fundamentals and frontiers in mechanics to accelerate developments in nano- and bio-technologies. • Presents multiscale-multiphysics modeling and experimentation techniques. • Examines applications in materials, manufacturing, electronics, medicine and healthcare. Nano and Cell Mechanics: Fundamentals and Frontiers is written by internationally recognized experts in theoretical and applied mechanics, applied physics, chemistry, and biology. It is an invaluable reference for graduate students of nano- and bio-technologies, researchers in academia and industry who are working in nano and cell mechanics, and practitioners who are interested in learning about the latest analysis tools. The book can also serve as a text for graduate courses in theoretical and applied mechanics, mechanical engineering, materials science, and applied physics.

An outstanding feature of this book is a collection of state-of-the-art reviews written by leading researchers in the nanomechanics of carbon nanotubes, nanocrystalline materials, biomechanics and polymer nanocomposites. The structure and properties of carbon nanotubes, polycrystalline metals, and coatings are discussed in great details. The book is an exceptional resource on multi-scale modelling of metals, nanocomposites, MEMS materials and biomedical applications. An extensive bibliography concerning all these topics is included. Highlights on bio-materials, MEMS, and the latest multi-scale methods (e.g., molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo) are presented. Numerous illustrations of inter-atomic potentials, nanotube deformation and fracture, grain rotation and growth in solids, ceramic coating structures, blood flows and cell adhesion are discussed. This book provides a comprehensive review of latest developments in the analysis of mechanical phenomena in nanotechnology and bio-nanotechnology.

This book is an introduction to the mechanical properties, the force generating capacity, and the sensitivity to mechanical cues of the biological system. To understand how these qualities govern many essential biological processes, we also discuss how to measure them. However, before delving into the details and the techniques, we will first learn the operational definitions in mechanics, such as force, stress, elasticity, viscosity and so on. This book will explore the mechanics at three different length scales – molecular, cellular, and tissue levels – sequentially, and discuss the measurement techniques to quantify the intrinsic mechanical properties, force generating capacity, mechanoresponsive processes in the biological systems, and rupture forces.

Environmental factors can profoundly affect the mechanical compliance and adhesion of living cells. This work explores the in vitro measurement and quantification of the mechanical compliance of individual cells interacting with: a metastable protein, zinc oxide (ZnO) and silicon dioxide (SiO2) nanoparticles (NPs), as well as the effects of in vitro focal adhesion formation on the single-cell mechanics of fibroblasts. In the first system, atomic force microscopy (AFM) based single-cell compression was found to be sufficiently sensitive to measure and quantify interactions between neuronal type cells and A[beta]42 protein, a principal component of plaque found in the brains of Alzheimer's disease patients. Cellular membrane Young's modulus, osmotic pressure change, and change in intracellular ion concentration were extracted. Of the three forms of A[beta]42 protein investigated including monomer, oligomer, and fibrillar, it was found that the oligomer had the strongest effect on cell mechanics by increasing membrane stiffness. This result is consistent with the known cytotoxicity of the oligomer. In another investigation, human aortic endothelial cells (HAECs) were exposed to ZnO and SiO2 NPs at 10 [microgram]/ml and 50 [microgram]/ml concentrations having previously been shown to induce inflammation and become cytotoxic in a dose dependent manner. By using single-cell compression, it was found that ZnO NPs induced measurable cell swelling and stiffening likely due to osmotic pressure increase and lipid peroxidation which crosslinks lipids within the membrane. At the higher concentration, a sub-population developed which showed significant morphological alteration and was mechanically softer under load, possibly due to significant lipid degradation. At low concentration, SiO2 NPs had no effect on cell mechanics. However, at higher concentration a sub-population of cells became stiffened. Three time points associated with three stages of focal adhesion formation were investigated by AFM, cell compression, and laser scanning confocal microscopy (LSCM). A new single-cell compression methodology was devised in order to measure and compare force vs. three-dimensional deformation of cells undergoing adhesion. Global cell stiffening took place correlating with increasing actin filament alignment and growth as seen with LSCM. AFM imaging revealed a transition from membrane decorated dot to rod-like structures as focal adhesion progressed.
