Perivascular Matrix Densification Dysregulates Angiogenesis and Activates Pro‐Inflammatory Endothelial Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Perivascular matrix densification promotes the emergence of aberrant endothelial tip cells (ATECs) that invade and persist within fibrotic microenvironments. Using in vivo lineage tracing and a human microvessel model, this study shows that fibrous matrix cues destabilize VE‐cadherin–mediated junctions to gate TGF‐β signaling, inducing a pro ...

Thermometry based on Whispering Gallery Mode resonators [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Whispering gallery (WG) mode resonators were studied since 1980s for precision clock oscillators and for cavity quantum electrodynamics studies. They are a kind of stable, high Q, microwave resonators where a symmetric dielectric medium, such as a ...

Saturation and its effect on the resilient modulus of a pavement formation material [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
This paper reports the effects of changing degree of saturation on the stiffness of a typical railway formation material. Material dynamically compacted to a target dry density over a range of water contents was cyclically loaded in triaxial and hollow ...

In‐Process Magnetization for 3D Printing of Magnetorheological Elastomer with Heterogeneous Magnetic Profile for Anisotropic Actuation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Fully programmable, in‐process 3D magnetization integrated with multi‐material printing enables soft magnetic systems with precise actuation and sensing. Discrete and continuous magnetization profiles drive bending, morphing, and locomotion, demonstrated through strain‐sensing elements, dragonfly‐inspired wings, octopus‐like tentacles, and a serpentine

Electrically Conductive and Topographically Engineered PLCL Nerve Guidance Conduits for Facial Nerve Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
A bio‐integrated nerve guidance conduit is developed for facial nerve regeneration by combining electrospun aligned PLCL nanofibers with a conductive tannic acid/polypyrrole‐based hydrogel coating. This optimized scaffold provides synergistic topographical cues and supports electrical stimulation, promoting enhanced neuronal differentiation and ...

Finite element modelling in ultrasonic sheet metal forming [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Finite element (FE) model of die necking process of an aluminium hollow thin cylinder has been developed. The input parameters of material properties and coefficient of friction, µ for the model have been deducted from our previous experimental study ...

Clade‐wide morphological and functional variation of the sauropsid columella

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The columella (=stapes) is the middle ear bone of reptiles that transmits vibrations from the environment to the inner ear. It has been shown to exhibit extensive interspecific morphological disparity in several clades; however, its morphological variation and associated functional consequences remain poorly described.

Tracing the evolutionary history of the morpho‐anatomy of baculum in primates

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Animal morphology reflects both evolutionary history and present‐day adaptation. Male mammal copulatory structures such as the baculum (penile bone) are ideal for studying these processes because of their complexity and high interspecific variability. In primates, however, research has focused mostly on baculum length.

Born this way: Does variation in perinatal limb bone morphology predict adult locomotor repertoire in primates?

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Primates show a high degree of locomotor diversity that engenders similar variance in limb bone cross‐sectional geometry and bending strength: leaping primates have stronger hindlimb bones whereas suspensory species have stronger forelimb bones.
