Endothelial cells: stress analysis

[Roberto Disaro]

Hello!
        I'm a student of biomedical engineering and I am making my
degree
dissertation on the behaviour of a culture of endothelial cells that
undergoes cyclical homogeneus stress  conditions (biaxial stress and
shear stress).
So I have to find out a device that permit to create this conditions and
to observe what is happening on the substrate.
If you know researches, bibliography, work groups or whatever
information that are concerned with this topic, please let me know.

I'd be grateful for your help
Many thanks

Roberto
