Effect of fiber length on mechanical properties of wood composite plastic (Polypropylene) [PDF]
The objective of adding reinforcing fillers, such as natural fibers to plastics is to increase the strength compared with neat plastic and wood. In this research the effect of wood pulp fiber length (short, medium and long), aspect ratio and fiber ...

A Finite Element Model for Describing the Effect of Muscle Shortening on Surface EMG [PDF]
A finite-element model for the generation of single fiber action potentials in a muscle undergoing various degrees of fiber shortening is developed. The muscle is assumed fusiform with muscle fibers following a curvilinear path described by a Gaussian ...

Fiber‐reinforced soil boasts fewer cracks, higher energy absorption, and higher residual strength. With the well‐established concept of carbon neutralization, it is necessary to reduce the dependence on high carbon‐emitting reinforcement materials such as cement and concrete.

Mitochondrial remodeling shapes neural and glial lineage progression by matching metabolic supply with demand. Elevated OXPHOS supports differentiation and myelin formation, while myelin compaction lowers mitochondrial dependence, revealing mitochondria as key drivers of developmental energy adaptation.

TANNIN AND FIBER CONTENTS OF RAPESEED AND CANOLA HULLS
Hulls from rapeseed and canola seed were analyzed for tannins, and the ability of these tannins to inhibit α-amylase in vitro was determined. Extractable tannin content ranged from 0.02 to 0.22%. The α-amylase inhibition test showed zero values for rapeseed and canola hulls indicating the absence of tannins capable of inhibiting this enzyme. Key words:

Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.
