Contactless heat flux control with photonic devices [PDF]
, 2015 The ability to control electric currents in solids using diodes and transistors is undoubtedly at the origin of the main developments in modern electronics which have revolutionized the daily life in the second half of 20th century.

Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 2004 According to the antagonistic pleiotropy theory of ageing, natural selection has favoured genes conferring short-term benefits to the organism at the cost of deterioration in later life. The 'disposable soma' theory expresses this as a life-history strategy in which somatic maintenance is below the level required to prevent ageing, thus enabling higher

The future of Age and Ageing [PDF]
Age and Ageing, 2002 The delivery of healthcare in the United Kingdom is going through a period of change, with many new developments. Some of these represent the aspirations of politicians and those who manage the National Health Service, and others are being forced upon us because of the shortage of resources (not always financial).

A diverse Late Cretaceous vertebrate tracksite from the Winton Formation of Queensland, Australia [PDF]
PeerJ, 2021 The Upper Cretaceous ‘upper’ Winton Formation of Queensland, Australia is world famous for hosting Dinosaur Stampede National Monument at Lark Quarry Conservation Park, a somewhat controversial tracksite that preserves thousands of tridactyl dinosaur ...

Dynamical network stability analysis of multiple biological ages provides a framework for understanding the aging process [PDF]
, 2023 Widespread interest in non-destructive biomarkers of aging has led to a curse of plenty: a multitude of biological ages that each proffers a 'true' health-adjusted age of an individual. While each measure provides salient information on the aging process, they are each univariate, in contrast to the "hallmark" and "pillar" theories of aging which are ...

A mesoscopic description of radiative heat transfer at the nanoscale [PDF]
, 2010 We present a formulation of the nanoscale radiative heat transfer (RHT) using concepts of mesoscopic physics. We introduce the analog of the Sharvin conductance using the quantum of thermal conductance.

Ageing and vascular ageing [PDF]
Postgraduate Medical Journal, 2006 Abstract There is an age related decline in various physiological processes. Vascular ageing is associated with changes in the mechanical and the structural properties of the vascular wall, which leads to the loss of arterial elasticity and reduced arterial compliance.

PFA-GAN: Progressive Face Aging with Generative Adversarial Network [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Information Forensics and Security, 2021, 2020 Face aging is to render a given face to predict its future appearance, which plays an important role in the information forensics and security field as the appearance of the face typically varies with age. Although impressive results have been achieved with conditional generative adversarial networks (cGANs), the existing cGANs-based methods typically ...
