Mechanisms reducing parasympathetic activity in chronic hypoxia

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Parasympathetic activity is reduced in chronic hypoxia, but the underlying mechanism(s) are unclear. Using β‐adrenergic blockade to isolate parasympathetic control of heart rate at sea level and after 9‐12 days at high altitude, we investigated whether (i) chemoreflex activation, (ii) increased pulmonary ventilation and/or (iii ...

A Phasefield Model for Combined Brittle and Ductile Fracture in a Heterogeneous Domain

open access: yesProceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 4, December 2026.
ABSTRACT This contribution presents a phasefield approach to simulating combined brittle and ductile fracture in a materially heterogeneous domain consisting of a ductile 100Cr6 steel matrix and various non‐metallic, brittle inclusions. The matrix subdomain is modeled with von Mises plasticity with linear isotropic hardening, while the inclusions are ...

Interplay Between Deep Convection and Mesoscale Gravity Waves

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 21, 16 November 2026.
Abstract Although the association between precipitation and mesoscale gravity waves (MGWs) is well documented, the feedback mechanisms governing their amplification remain difficult to isolate. This study uses convection‐permitting numerical simulations with 1–4 km grid spacing to investigate a complex MGW event that occurred over the south‐central ...

Analytical Methodology to Determine Thermally Induced Soil Deformation From Laboratory Data

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 50, Issue 16, Page 5868-5890, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Experimental laboratory investigations underlie most of the knowledge about the mechanics of soils under non‐isothermal conditions and their thermally induced deformation. Despite advances, the understanding of thermally induced deformation of soils remains inconsistent, hindering the development of a coherent framework that can advance ...
