Horizontal running inside circular walls of Moon settlements: a comprehensive countermeasure for low-gravity deconditioning?

Royal Society Open Science
Long-lasting exposure to low gravity, such as in lunar settlements planned by the ongoing Artemis Program, elicits muscle hypotrophy, bone demineralization, cardio-respiratory and neuro-control deconditioning, against which optimal countermeasures are ...

Sitting for Too Long, Moving Too Little: Regular Muscle Contractions Can Reduce Muscle Stiffness During Prolonged Periods of Chair-Sitting

Frontiers in Sports and Active Living, 2021
In modern Western societies, sedentary behavior has become a growing health concern. There is increasing evidence that prolonged sitting periods can be associated with musculoskeletal disorders.

Wet adhesion and adhesive locomotion of snails on anti-adhesive non-wetting surfaces [PDF]

, 2012
Creating surfaces capable of resisting liquid-mediated adhesion is extremely difficult due to the strong capillary forces that exist between surfaces.

Wave-like Robotic Locomotion between Highly Flexible Surfaces and Comparison to Worm Robot Locomotion

, 2023
In a recent study, we developed a minimally actuated robot that utilizes wave-like locomotion and analyzed its kinematics. In this paper, we present an analysis of the robot’s locomotion between two highly flexible surfaces.

Phosphodiesterase 10A Is a Mediator of Osteogenic Differentiation and Mechanotransduction in Bone Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stromal Cells

Stem Cells International, 2020
Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (hMSCs) are capable of differentiating into the osteogenic lineage, and for osteogenic differentiation, mechanical loading is a relevant stimulus.

Steeper medial posterior tibial slope is associated with bilateral ACL injuries: A radiographic comparison with unilateral cases

Journal of Experimental Orthopaedics
Purpose The posterior tibial slope (PTS) plays a key role in knee biomechanics and may influence the risk of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture as well as the outcomes of its reconstruction.
