Surface Charges Guided Quasi‐TEM‐mode Microwave Propagation along Dielectric Nanowire

Advanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
According to Maxwell's equations, a single‐conductor transmission line cannot allow TEM‐mode electromagnetic wave propagation, however, this is based upon the assumption that dielectric material is isolated from the environment. In practice, surface electrostatic charges widely existed in nano‐materials with large surface‐to‐volume ratio.

Acute effects of ballistic stretching in the warm-up on sprint performances

, 2015
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of ballistic stretching in a warm-up on sprint performance. Twenty three healthy participants with CAI (23 men: 19.9±1.04yrs, 169.3±6.21cm, 65.8 ±10.84kg) volunteered to take part in this study ...

Nanoscale Thermal Transport in Bi2(Te, Se)3 Thermoelectric Material Using Pulsed STEM

Advanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
The pulsed‐STEM technique enables simultaneous acquisition of crystallographic, compositional, and thermal transport information within a single experiment. In anisotropic Bi2(Te, Se)3, phase‐delay imaging visualizes directional heat flow and interfacial resistance at the nanoscale, offering a new approach to understanding and designing thermoelectric ...

Guiding and Manipulating Light Fields in Microstructured Liquid Crystals

Advanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
This review summarizes recent advances in guided‐wave optics enabled by microstructured liquid crystal (LC) devices, covering their fundamental material properties, key degree of freedom for dynamic light field manipulations. The advances of linear guided‐wave optics, nonlinear‐optics with spatial optical solitons, and microlasers in LC‐based devices ...

A statistical approach to proof testing [PDF]

, 2008
Police body armour has undergone rapid evolution, and this is due in part to a relatively simple type approval process which matches relatively small numbers purchased by individual police forces.

Computational fluid dynamics simulations of airflow through the nasal passages of rhinolophoid bats

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The nasal passages of bats that emit their echolocation call through their nostrils have adapted for sound emission as well as standard respiratory and olfactory functions. Rhinolophids, hipposiderids and rhinonycterids all use a high duty cycle (HDC) echolocation strategy.

The Tendon‐to‐Bone Seam: A Transtendinous Approach to Rotator Cuff Repair

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract This technique article describes the tendon‐to‐bone seam technique, a knotless, transtendinous approach to arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. The technique employs a single‐use deployment device preloaded with multiple PEEK anchors interconnected with a single polyethylene #2 suture, enabling the surgeon to create a continuous “seam” of ...

Maximizing Neurovascular Outcomes of Facial Transplantation: A Comprehensive Review

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Facial transplantation is a division of reconstructive surgery which aims to improve the function and appearance of a face that has endured severe disfigurement. Currently, the face transplant procedure uses allogenic tissue, harvested from a brain‐dead donor, to replace damaged facial components.
