Anatomical traces of vocabulary acquisition in the adolescent brain [PDF]

, 2007
A surprising discovery in recent years is that the structure of the adult human brain changes when a new cognitive or motor skill is learned. This effect is seen as a change in local gray or white matter density that correlates with behavioral measures ...

Modelling evolution of anisotropy in metals using crystal plasticity [PDF]

, 2013
Many metals used in modern engineering exhibit anisotropy. A common assumption when modelling anisotropic metals is that the level of anisotropy is fixed throughout the calculation. As it is well understood that processes such as cold rolling, forging

Wood Anatomical Responses of European Beech to Elevation, Land Use Change, and Climate Variability in the Central Apennines, Italy

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) is a widespread and economically important temperate tree species in Europe. The warmer temperatures and severe drought events expected in the future, especially in Mediterranean areas, could affect the vitality and ...

Adaptive plasticity of morphological and anatomical traits of Brant’s oak (Quercus brantii Lindl.) leaves under different climates and elevation gradients

Forest Science and Technology, 2023
The morphological and anatomical characteristics of leaves are sensitive and adaptable to environmental changes. Determining eco-physiological patterns of leaf characteristics along elevational gradients allows for a better understanding and prediction ...

Computationally efficient predictions of crystal plasticity based forming limit diagrams using a spectral database [PDF]

, 2018
The present investigation focuses on the development of a fast and robust numerical tool for the prediction of the forming limit diagrams (FLDs) for thin polycrystalline metal sheets using a Taylor-type (full constraints) crystal plasticity model.

The actin-binding protein profilin II in neuronal plasticity [PDF]

, 2006
Activity-dependent plasticity in neurons involves changes in synaptic transmission and connectivity. These changes lead to altered neuronal circuit properties and are thought to underlie learning and memory.

Branch-specific plasticity enables self-organization of nonlinear computation in single neurons [PDF]

, 2011
It has been conjectured that nonlinear processing in dendritic branches endows individual neurons with the capability to perform complex computational operations that are needed in order to solve for example the binding problem.

Anatomical plasticity of adult brain is titrated by Nogo Receptor 1. [PDF]

Neuron, 2013
SummaryExperience rearranges anatomical connectivity in the brain, but such plasticity is suppressed in adulthood. We examined the turnover of dendritic spines and axonal varicosities in the somatosensory cortex of mice lacking Nogo Receptor 1 (NgR1 ...
