A topological paradigm for hippocampal spatial map formation using persistent homology.

PLoS Computational Biology, 2012
An animal's ability to navigate through space rests on its ability to create a mental map of its environment. The hippocampus is the brain region centrally responsible for such maps, and it has been assumed to encode geometric information (distances ...

Coupled effect of torrefaction and blending on chemical and energy properties for combustion of major open burned agriculture residues in Thailand [PDF]

, 2018
Thailand is an agriculture-based country. It produces large amounts of open burned agricultural residues. A strategy to use them as biofuel all year round is to enhance their fuel properties by coupling blending and thermochemical pre-treatment.

An experimental study on the characteristics of ammonia/coal mild gasification-combustion and the Fuel-N transformation

Meitan xuebao
Ammonia (NH3) is a carbon-free and hydrogen-rich fuel. NH3 co-firing in coal-fired boiler is an effective approach to reduce carbon emissions from the combustion source.

Neural reactivations during sleep determine network credit assignment. [PDF]

, 2017
A fundamental goal of motor learning is to establish the neural patterns that produce a desired behavioral outcome. It remains unclear how and when the nervous system solves this 'credit assignment' problem.

A 3D Biofabricated Disease Model Mimicking the Brain Extracellular Matrix Suitable to Characterize Intrinsic Neuronal Network Alterations in the Presence of a Breast Tumor Disseminated to the Brain

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A 3D disease model is developed using customized hyaluronic‐acid‐based hydrogels supplemented with extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins resembling brain ECM properties. Neurons, astrocytes, and tumor cells are used to mimic the native brain surrounding.

Demonstration of high biomass ratio co-firing at existing coal fired boiler

Nihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2017
There is a CO2 emission reduction method of burning woody biomass and coal, as a technical method to reduce the CO2 emission of the coal fired power plant. But a co-firing woody biomass ratio of the existing coal fired power plants gives only the 2-3% co-

Co-firing of biomass with coals Part 1. Thermogravimetric kinetic analysis of combustion of fir (abies bornmulleriana) wood [PDF]

, 2010
The chemical composition and reactivity of fir (Abies bornmulleriana) wood under non-isothermal thermogravimetric (TG) conditions were studied. Oxidation of the wood sample at temperatures near 600 A degrees C caused the loss of aliphatics from the ...
