Effect of Large Eccentric Rotation on the Stability of Liquid Bridges

Fluid Dynamics & Materials Processing, 2007
A cylindrical liquid bridge supported between two circular-shaped disks in isorotation is considered. The effect of an offset between the rotation axis and the axis of the two supporting disks (eccentricity) on the stability of the liquid bridge is investigated.

Characterising skeletal muscle under large strain using eccentric and Fourier Transform-rheology

Journal of Biomechanics, 2015
Characterising the passive anisotropic properties of soft tissues has been largely limited to the linear viscoelastic regime and shear loading is rarely done in the large deformation regime, despite the physiological significance of such properties. This paper demonstrates the use of eccentric rheology, which allows the anisotropy of skeletal muscle to

Maneuverable Multilegged Locomotion through Anisotropically Arranged Soft Backbones in a Single‐Actuator Modular Miniature Robot

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A modular eight‐legged robot exploits anisotropically oriented soft I‐beam backbones to transmit vibration from a single unbalanced‐mass actuator, producing frequency‐dependent multimodal gaits. A pseudo‐rigid‐body model enables high‐fidelity MuJoCo simulation, while Bayesian parameter identification and reinforcement learning yield robust control ...

Slenderness effect on the behavior of composite RC columns under eccentric loads [PDF]

Engineering and Technology Journal
The structural performance of reinforced concrete (RC) columns plays a pivotal role in ensuring the safety and stability of buildings and infrastructure. In structural engineering, the quest for optimizing the design and behavior of RC columns has been a

Properties and nature of Be stars: 27. Orbital and recent long-term variations of the Pleiades Be star Pleione = BU Tauri

, 2010
Radial-velocity variations of the H-alpha emission measured on the steep wings of the H-alpha line, prewhitened for the long-time changes, vary periodically with a period of (218.025 +/- 0.022)d, confirming the suspected binary nature of the bright Be ...

Quantitative proteomics identifies clusterin as a novel biomarker for atherosclerosis

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This schematic illustrates the proposed mechanism. In advanced atherosclerotic lesions, upregulated CLU on the cell surface activates low‐density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor‐related protein 1 (LRP1). This interaction triggers the phosphorylation and activation of AKT.

Contribution of Torsional Vibration Modes and the Influence on Period Ratios in the Seismic Response of Elastic Plate Bent Frame Structures

Buildings
The structural characteristics of large-span structures inherently differ from those of conventional multistorey structures, making it challenging to accurately describe the contribution of various vibration modes to the overall response using ...

The optimum fire window: applying the fire–productivity hypothesis to Jurassic climate states [PDF]

Biogeosciences
Present-day fire frequency is related to a productivity–aridity gradient on regional and global scales. Optimum fire conditions occur at times of intermediate productivity and aridity, whereas fire is limited at the high productivity (moisture) and ...

Age and gender effects on echocardiographic and histopathological cardiac phenotypes in healthy adult mice

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study investigated the impact of age and sex on cardiac phenotypes in healthy adult C57BL/6J mice using echocardiography and histopathological analyses. Findings revealed that female mice demonstrated more pronounced global cardiac chamber dilation during aging.
