Characterization of neurospora circadian rhythms in space [PDF]
To determine whether the circadian rhythm of conidiation in neurospora crassa is endogenously derived or is driven by some geophysical time cue, an experiment was conducted on space shuttle flight STS-9, where inoculated race tubes were exposed to the ...

Hypergravity diagnostics and material synthesis in noble gas gliding arc plasma [PDF]
, 2013 The behaviour of gliding arc discharge in argon and helium has been studied under normal gravity and hypergravity conditions. The similar influence of increased gas flow and increased gravity is reported.

A study of murine bone marrow cells cultured in bioreactors which create an environment which simulated microgravity [PDF]
Previous research indicated that mouse bone marrow cells could be grown in conditions of simulated microgravity. This environment was created in rotating bioreactor vessels. On three attempts mouse cells were grown successfully in the vessels.

Numerical study on the shear strength of granular materials under the low confining pressure
Soils and FoundationsThe relationship between stress and strength in granular soil differs under low confining pressure as compared to high confining pressure, which is of great importance for the geotechnical engineering. Numerical simulations using discrete element method (

Saccadic eye movement during spaceflight [PDF]
Saccadic eye movements were studied in six subjects during two Space Shuttle missions. Reaction time, peak velocity and accuracy of horizontal, visually-guided saccades were examined preflight, inflight and postflight.

Effects of acceleration in the Gz axis on human cardiopulmonary responses to exercise [PDF]
, 2018 The aim of this paper was to develop a model from experimental data allowing a prediction of the cardiopulmonary responses to steady-state submaximal exercise in varying gravitational environments, with acceleration in the Gz axis (a g) ranging from 0 to

Soil disturbance evaluation of soft clay based on stress-normalized small-strain stiffness
Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical EngineeringSoil disturbance includes the change of stress state and the damage of soil structure. The field testing indices reflect the combined effect of both changes and it is difficult to identify the soil structure disturbance directly from these indices.

Gravity receptors and responses [PDF]
The overall process of gravity sensing and response processes in plants may be divided conveniently into at least four components or stages: Stimulus susception (a physical event, characteristically the input to the G receptor system of environmental ...
