The effects of growth rate and biomechanical loading on bone laminarity within the emu skeleton [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 The orientation of vascular canals in primary bone may reflect differences in growth rate and/or adaptation to biomechanical loads. Previous studies link specific canal orientations to bone growth rates, but results between different taxa are ...

Physical Review Letters, 2018 We show that the output of systems with time-varying delay can exhibit a new kind of chaotic behavior characterized by laminar phases, which are periodically interrupted by irregular bursts. Within each laminar phase the output intensity remains almost constant, but its level varies chaotically from phase to phase.

Generalized laminar matroids [PDF]
European Journal of Combinatorics, 2019 Nested matroids were introduced by Crapo in 1965 and have appeared frequently in the literature since then. A flat of a matroid $M$ is Hamiltonian if it has a spanning circuit. A matroid $M$ is nested if and only if its Hamiltonian flats form a chain under inclusion; $M$ is laminar if and only if, for every $1$-element independent set $X$, the ...

Age-Related Changes in Standing Balance in Preschoolers Using Traditional and Nonlinear Methods
Frontiers in Physiology, 2021 Considerable disagreement exists on the linearity of the development of standing balance in children. This study aimed to use different traditional and nonlinear methods to investigate age-related changes in standing balance in preschoolers.

European Journal of Combinatorics, 2017 A laminar family is a collection $\mathscr{A}$ of subsets of a set $E$ such that, for any two intersecting sets, one is contained in the other. For a capacity function $c$ on $\mathscr{A}$, let $\mathscr{I}$ be $\{I:|I\cap A| \leq c(A)\text{ for all $A\in\mathscr{A}$}\}$.

Thin Trees for Laminar Families
2023 IEEE 64th Annual Symposium on Foundations of Computer Science (FOCS), 2023 In the laminar-constrained spanning tree problem, the goal is to find a minimum-cost spanning tree which respects upper bounds on the number of times each cut in a given laminar family is crossed. This generalizes the well-studied degree-bounded spanning tree problem, as well as a previously studied setting where a chain of cuts is given.

Wing bone laminarity is not an adaptation for torsional resistance in bats [PDF]
PeerJ, 2015 Torsional loading is a common feature of skeletal biomechanics during vertebrate flight. The importance of resisting torsional loads is best illustrated by the convergence of wing bone structure (e.g., long with thin walls) across extant bats and birds ...

Microstructure and cross-sectional shape of limb bones in Great Horned Owls and Red-tailed Hawks: how do these features relate to differences in flight and hunting behavior? [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The Red-tailed Hawk and Great Horned Owl are two species of raptor that are similar in body size, diet, and habitat. Both species use their hindlimbs during hunting, but differ in foot morphology, how they approach and immobilize prey, and the average ...
