Tipping points near a delayed saddle node bifurcation with periodic forcing

open access: yes, 2015
We consider the effect on tipping from an additive periodic forcing in a canonical model with a saddle node bifurcation and a slowly varying bifurcation parameter.

Loss of Stat3 in Prx1+ Progenitors Impairs Molar Root Development

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
Stat3 critically regulates mandibular first molar and alveolar bone morphogenesis. Conditional ablation of Stat3 disrupts the osteogenic capacity of Prx1+ mesenchymal progenitors, as evidenced across in vivo and in vitro models. Abstract Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 3 (Stat3) acts as a central transcriptional modulator coordinating ...

Possibility of Atherosclerosis in an Arterial Bifurcation Model

open access: yesBioImpacts, 2011
Introduction: Arterial bifurcations are susceptible locations for formation of atherosclerotic plaques. In the present study, steady blood flow is investigated in a bifurcation model with a non-planar branch.

Complex Dynamics on the Routes to Chaos in a Discrete Predator-Prey System with Crowley-Martin Type Functional Response

open access: yesDiscrete Dynamics in Nature and Society, 2018
We present in this paper an investigation on a discrete predator-prey system with Crowley-Martin type functional response to know its complex dynamics on the routes to chaos which are induced by bifurcations.

Propagation Failure in Excitable Media

open access: yes, 1997
We study a mechanism of pulse propagation failure in excitable media where stable traveling pulse solutions appear via a subcritical pitchfork bifurcation. The bifurcation plays a key role in that mechanism.

Soft‐Layered Composites with Wrinkling‐Activated Multi‐Linear Elastic Behavior, Stress Mitigation, and Enhanced Strain Energy Storage

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
In this study, exciting new bi‐/multi‐linear elastic behavior of soft elastic composites that accompany the activation of wrinkling in the embedded interfacial layers is analyzed. The new features and performance of these composite materials, including dramatic enhancements in energy storage, can be tailored by the concentration of interfacial layers ...

Agrivoltaics in Color: Going From Light Spectra to Biomass

open access: yesEarth's Future, 2023
Agrivoltaics (AV), conceived in the early 1980s, promise to ameliorate competition between solar energy generation and crop production for arable land.

Nonlinear bifurcation

open access: yesJournal of Differential Equations, 1970
We consider problems of the form (a) Lu + λg(λ, x, u) = 0, x ∈ D; (b) Bu = 0, x ∈ ∂D, for a very wide class of linear elliptic operators L, say of order 2m, and linear boundary operators B, of order m. For convenience only, we take the linear problem to be self-adjoint. ; © 1970 Published by Elsevier Inc. Received February 3, 1969.

Programmable Reconfiguration of Hybrid 4D Chiral Metamaterials via Mechanical and Thermal Stimuli

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A class of hybrid chiral mechanical metamaterials is designed to achieve programmable reconfiguration through soft networks, hinges, and bilayer joints integrated with rigid units. Responsive to mechanical and thermal stimuli, these structures exhibit large volume changes, tunable deformation pathways, and both positive and negative thermal expansion ...
