1 Introduction The viscoelastic response of materials to external forcing includes an immediate elastic response and a time-dependent viscous response. As such, the viscous response may be a combination of multiple mechanisms operating simultaneously, each over a different timescale.

1 Introduction Understanding the attenuation behavior of geological materials is important for modeling numerous terrestrial and planetary phenomena, including seismic wave attenuation in the Earth and tidal dissipation and heating in planets.

Abstract Craniofacial tissues undergo hard tissue development through mineralization and changes in physicochemical properties. This study investigates the mechanical and chemical properties of developing enamel, dentin, and bone in the mouse mandible. We employ a multi-modal, multi-scale analysis of the developing incisor and first molar at postnatal day 12 by integrating micro-computed tomography (microCT), nanoindentation (NI), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and Raman spectroscopy.
