Distinct developmental dynamics of opposing persistent currents shape motoneuron firing during motor maturation of zebrafish

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend During the first few days of development, zebrafish acquire the ability to produce increasingly refined movements that rely progressively less on the activity of primary motoneurons. At the same time, primary motoneurons undergo functional maturation, becoming increasingly capable of repetitive firing.

US‐Japan Alliance: Emmeshing Bilateralism Into Broader Multilateralism

Asia &the Pacific Policy Studies, Volume 13, Issue 2, May 2026.
ABSTRACT In the 21st Century, geopolitical confrontation between the Eurasian continental powers and the sea powers works to divide Asia. The US‐Japan alliance has transformed itself from Japanʼs asymmetrical security dependence of the Cold War period into a mutual and more integrated partnership today.

Validation of Intravoxel Incoherent Motion MRI Using Perfused Explanted Human Livers

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 95, Issue 4, Page 2291-2304, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose Evaluate the feasibility of using perfused explanted human livers for validating intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM). Methods Eight (n = 8) explanted livers from deceased donors were obtained. The portal vein and hepatic artery of each explanted liver were connected to a perfusion system.

Simulation of the Performance of Kevlar Impregnated Shear Thickening Fluid Ballistic Test Results (STF) Ballistic Test Results

Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science and Technology (JMEST)
This study explores the enhancement of Kevlar fabric’s ballistic performance through impregnation with Shear Thickening Fluid (STF) for potential application in soft body armor. The experimental approach often fails to elucidate mechanical phenomena critical for the development of lightweight and high-strength body armor designs.

The Effect of Voxel Volume and Voxel Shape on Cardiac Diffusion Tensor Imaging Metrics

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 95, Issue 4, Page 2063-2077, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose Cardiac diffusion tensor imaging (cDTI) is signal‐to‐noise ratio (SNR)‐limited due to diffusion signal attenuation, long echo times from gradient moment nulling, and moderate myocardial T 2$$ {}_2 $$. Increasing voxel volume improves SNR but reduces spatial sensitivity and introduces physiological bias.

Physical Characteristics of Fast Roping in British Elite Law Enforcement Officers

European Journal of Sport Science, Volume 26, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Elite law enforcement and special forces operators around the world have a unique skill set, including some risky methods of entry into a scene of operation. With fast roping being actively utilized by this population, it is important to gain an understanding of the physical demands of the task.

Biodegradation Behavior of Neat PLA Fibers Under Controlled Industrial Composting Conditions: Fiber Characterization and Physical Changes During the Composting Process

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 8, February 20, 2026.
Poly(lactic) acid (PLA) biodegradability in fiber form is relatively unexplored. This study shows that the drawing of the fibers during production affects the mechanical properties but slows down the biodegradation of the PLA. Biodegraded undrawn fibers showed peeling whereas drawn fibers showed crack formation on the surface.

Low‐Velocity Impact Response of Nacre‐Inspired E‐Glass/Epoxy Composites With Varying Platelet Sizes

Polymer Composites, Volume 47, Issue 3, Page 2781-2798, 10 February 2026.
Impact response of nacre‐inspired E‐glass/epoxy composites with different platelet sizes. ABSTRACT This study explores the low‐velocity impact behavior of nacre‐inspired biomimetic platelet composites (NIBPC), using low‐cost E‐glass fiber in chopped strand mat (CSM) form as reinforcement and epoxy resin as the matrix.
