A New Model for Solving Narrow Escape Problem in Domain with Long Neck [PDF]
The narrow escape problem arises in deriving the asymptotic expansion of the solution of an inhomogeneous mixed Dirichlet-Neumann boundary value problem. In this paper, we mainly deal with narrow escape problem in a smooth domain connected to a long neck-Dendritic spine shape domain, which has a certain significance in biology.

Neck linker docking coordinates the kinetics of kinesin's heads [PDF]
Conventional kinesin is a two-headed homodimeric motor protein, which is able to walk along microtubules processively by hydrolyzing ATP. Its neck linkers, which connect the two motor domains and can undergo a docking/undocking transition, are widely believed to play the key role in the coordination of the chemical cycles of the two motor domains and ...

ABSTRACTWhatever is excisable, is reconstructable! "You excise, we will reconstruct" are the confident words of reconstructive surgeons today. Reconstruction with multiple flaps has become routine. Radial artery (FRAF), Antero lateral thigh (ALT) and Fibula osteo cutaneous flap (FFOCF) are three most popular free flaps which can reconstruct any defect ...

This study aims to explore the feasibility of using a structure inspired by the features of horsetail and human spine as the potential helmet liner, targeting at mitigation of acceleration‐induced injuries. A parametric study is conducted to investigate the effect of individual geometrical variables in the design, indicating its capability to reduce ...

Segmentation of Head and Neck Organs at Risk Using CNN with Batch Dice Loss [PDF]
This paper deals with segmentation of organs at risk (OAR) in head and neck area in CT images which is a crucial step for reliable intensity modulated radiotherapy treatment. We introduce a convolution neural network with encoder-decoder architecture and a new loss function, the batch soft Dice loss function, used to train the network.

Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor of the cervical vagus nerve in a neurofibromatosis type 1 patient - An unusual presentation [PDF]
Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNST’S) of the head and neck comprise 2% to 6% of head and neck sarcomas. These tumors may arise as sporadic variants or in patients with neurofibromatosis (NF).
