ABSTRACT This study investigated shape variations and morphological integration between the components of crusher and cutter claws in two species of swimming crabs, Callinectes danae and Callinectes ornatus. The propodi and dactyli of the claws were analysed in males and females of both species, using geometric morphometric techniques to identify ...

The first regional survey of spontaneous plant communities across 17 cities on the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau shows that natural climatic conditions, especially precipitation and wind speed, are the primary drivers of variation in community diversity, while urbanization and habitat quality jointly structure plant community composition.

: In this work, Voxel‐SLAM (simultaneous localization and mapping) is introduced: a complete, accurate, and versatile LiDAR (light detection and ranging) ‐inertial SLAM system consisting of five modules: initialization, odometry, local mapping (LM), loop closure (LC), and global mapping (GM), all employing the same map representation, an adaptive voxel

Interactive cloning of 3D Objects [PDF]
There are a lot of cases in real world where new technologies use a device (such as a camera or a sensor) to scan a point cloud from a real surface, in order to extract information of the geometry and make a processing of it.

Elastoplastic Analysis of Plates with Radial Point Interpolation Meshless Methods [PDF]
For both linear and nonlinear analysis, finite element method (FEM) software packages, whether commercial or in-house, have contributed significantly to ease the analysis of simple and complex structures with various working conditions.

Abstract Premise Seed longevity is critical for successful genebanking, but it is hard to detect or predict. We examined survival of genebanked seeds from species native to the United States to estimate longevity. We tested whether RNA integrity (RIN) can be used to detect aging and predict mortality. Methods Dry seeds from >100 species were stored for

ABSTRACT Background Recurrent acute and chronic pancreatitis are often associated with severe abdominal pain. Notably, the presence and intensity of pain often show little correlation with structural pancreatic changes, suggesting a role for altered peripheral and central pain processing.

Predicting the elastic properties and deformability of red blood cell membrane using an atomistic-continuum approach [PDF]
This paper employs the gradient theory to study the elastic properties and deformability of red blood cell (RBC) membrane using the first-order Cauchy-Born rule as an atomistic-continuum hyperelastic constitutive model that directly incorporates the ...

Record‐Wise Disaggregated Seismic Fragilities for Interconnected Systems
ABSTRACT Seismic risk assessment studies typically rely on fragility functions/curves to characterize the susceptibility of an asset or a class of assets to damage. These curves are essentially a summarization of responses evaluated on the basis of ground motions with record characteristics and intensities that may or may not be tied to a specific site

Abstract Meiotic recombination is essential for generating genetic diversity, driving plant evolution, and enabling crop improvement, yet its uneven distribution across genomes constrains breeding efforts. Here, we investigated the multi‐omic landmarks that shape the recombination landscape in Brassica napus by integrating epigenomic, genomic, and ...
