Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Nanoscale chitin fiber orientations in the insect wing play a critical role in adapting to complex mechanical demands. These findings reveal two distinct and functionally adaptive chitin orientation patterns in the membranes that vary regionally, optimizing mechanical resilience and deformation control.

Learning fast accurate movements requires intact frontostriatal circuits
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2013 The basal ganglia are known to play a crucial role in movement execution, but their importance for motor skill learning remains unclear. Obstacles to our understanding include the lack of a universally accepted definition of motor skill learning ...

, 2009 We propose that the rotational kinematics of the globular cluster system (GCS) in M31 can result from a past major merger event that could have formed its bulge component.

Nature, 1909 PEOPLE are sometimes amazed by noticing that in a motor-car seen through railings the wheels appear to revolve the wrong way. As the eye follows the moving objects it is convenient to imagine that the car, which may be actually running to the right, is stationary, while a vertical rail is moving past it to the left with an equal velocity.

Searching for Critical Conditions During Lifeboat Launching – Simulations
Polish Maritime Research, 2017 The article describes numerical simulations of the process of lifeboat launching at the ship’s side. The research aimed at finding the values of ship motion parameters which appear to be most dangerous for people in the lowered lifeboat due to the ...

Pure gravities via color-kinematics duality for fundamental matter [PDF]
, 2014 A bstractWe give a prescription for the computation of loop-level scattering amplitudes in pure Einstein gravity, and four-dimensional pure supergravities, using the color-kinematics duality. Amplitudes are constructed using double copies of pure (super-)

Elastic Energy Storage in Biological Materials: Internal Stresses and Their Functionality
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Harnessing and storing internally generated elastic energy is a clever strategy by biological materials to perform functions like shape transformation, movement, and predation. This review explores how biological systems manipulate mechanisms like atomic or protein integration into minerals, protein conformational shifts, phase transitions, and osmotic
