How can we assess the resistance offered by a material (subcuteneous fat) to the pressure exerted by a probe?

We need to know if there are any tool to assess in-vivo the resistance offered by subcuteneous fat to the pressure exerted by a probe which aims to cause a deformation in the muscular belly...

Relationship between fatigue and muscle stiffness

Hi everyone, I would like to know if prolongued and accumulated fatigue is related to changes (decrements) in muscle stiffness (loss of muscle tone). If possible, I need some references regarding...

Why are the velocities so high in my Boussinesq approximation Fluent simulation?

Hello, I have a mechanism where air rises due to convective flows. In this simulation, nothing is driving the air except this. I understand that the Boussinesq approximation only works for small...

Is there a deep reason for using the squared modulus of the wave function as the probability density of the existence of the particle?

I think we were all surprised at the first time we got to know quantum mechanics that the squared modulus of the wave function is the probability density of the existence of the particle? The role...
