Chronic stress is a major underlying origin of the top leading causes of death, globally. Yet, the mechanistic explanation of the association between stress and disease is poorly understood. This ...

With the semiconductor industry moving toward 3D DRAM, 3D logic architectures, and 1000+ layer 3D NAND stacks, 1 mechanical failures may become more common. Due to the complexity of these structures, ...

In our last Forensic View, we began an examination of the changes in cognition and perception that occur when we’re under stress, including the extreme stress often encountered by law enforcement and ...

Composite materials often incur residual stresses during manufacture owing to complex interactions among thermal, chemical and mechanical phenomena. As thermosetting or thermoplastic resins cure, ...
