Estimating the mechanical properties of retinal tissue using contact angle measurements of a spreading droplet

When a drop of liquid is placed on the surface of a soft material, the surface deformation and the rate of spreading of the triple contact point is dependent on the mechanical properties of the substrate. This study seeks to use drop spreading behavior to infer the mechanical properties of soft biol...
