Mechanical Mechanisms of Chromosome Segregation [PDF]
Chromosome segregation—the partitioning of genetic material into two daughter cells—is one of the most crucial processes in cell division. In all Eukaryotes, chromosome segregation is driven by the spindle, a microtubule-based, self-organizing subcellular structure.

Mechanical allodynia (other pain) is a painful sensation caused by innocuous stimuli like light touch. Unlike inflammatory hyperalgesia that has a protective role, allodynia has no obvious biological utility. Allodynia is associated with nerve damage in conditions such as diabetes, and is likely to become an increasing clinical problem.

The mechanics of mechanical ventilation [PDF]
The Ventilator has represented an advance in the respiratory support for patients on anesthesia and intensive care. The ventilatory support increases the chance of survival in patients with respiratory failure, and / or major surgical procedures. This paper consists of a summary of advances in the ventilatory support, in describing the physiological ...

Mechanisms with Referrals: VCG Mechanisms and Multilevel Mechanisms [PDF]
We study mechanisms for environments in which only some of the agents are directly connected to a mechanism designer and the other agents can participate in a mechanism only through the connected agents' referrals. Agents' network connections are private information, which can be strategically concealed by avoiding making referrals; while the mechanism

Can Quantum-Mechanical Description of Physical Reality Be Considered Complete?
In a complete theory there is an element corresponding to each element of reality. A sufficient condition for the reality of a physical quantity is the possibility of predicting it with certainty, without disturbing the system.
