Twist and Writhe Dynamics of Stiff Polymers [PDF]

Physical Review Letters, 2000
I consider the dynamics of a stiff filament, in particular the coupling of twist and bend via writhe. The time dependence of the writhe of a filament of length L is ([Wr(t) - Wr(0)]2) > approximately Lt(1/4). Simulations, on a simple model of a stiff polymer, are used to confirm scaling arguments.

Clinical Practice Guideline for Evaluation and Management of Peripheral Nervous System Manifestations in Sjögren's Disease

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Sjögren's disease is an autoimmune disorder that can impact multiple organ systems, including the peripheral nervous system (PNS). PNS manifestations, which can exist concurrently, include mononeuropathies, polyneuropathies, and autonomic nervous system neuropathies.

Does Long‐Term Lower Extremity Strength Training in Adults With Knee Osteoarthritis and Varus Alignment Reduce Knee Joint Loading During Gait?

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We examined whether 18 months of strength training in individuals with knee varus alignment and medial tibiofemoral osteoarthritis (OA) reduced knee joint loads during walking compared to an attention control group. Methods This study was a secondary analysis of a randomized clinical trial that compared the effects of strength training to a ...

Chirality-mediated bistability and strong frequency downshifting of the gyrotropic resonance of a dynamically de-stiffened magnetic vortex

, 2017
We demonstrate an enhanced, bidirectional, in-plane magnetic field tuning of the gyrotropic resonance frequency of a magnetic vortex within a disk by introducing a flat edge.

Dynamic Stiffness Matrix of Sagging Cable [PDF]

Journal of Engineering Mechanics, 1991
The dynamic behavior of an extensible sagging cable is investigated. A dynamic stiffness matrix is presented whose coefficients are functions of the frequency of motion, and that is suitable for dynamic direct-stiffness analysis of composed systems such as cable-stayed bridges and guyed masts.

Artificial Intelligence in Systemic Sclerosis: Clinical Applications, Challenges, and Future Directions

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a rare autoimmune disease defined by immune dysregulation, vasculopathy, and progressive fibrosis of the skin and internal organs. Despite advances in care, major complications such as interstitial lung disease (ILD) and myocardial involvement remain the leading causes of morbidity and mortality.
