Wave propagation of spectral energy content in a granular chain

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
A mechanical wave is propagation of vibration with transfer of energy and momentum. Understanding the spectral energy characteristics of a propagating wave through disordered granular media can assist in understanding the overall properties of wave ...

MSM and HIV/AIDS in China [PDF]

open access: yesCell Research, 2005
This article profiles current status of spread and control of HIV/AIDS in China. China has a significant population of MSM (men who have sex with men) and they have been becoming very much alive in many ways since 1990s due to recent social changes. Some surveys indicate that great many of MSM are engaged in high-risk behaviors.

The role of gravity or pressure and contact stiffness in granular rheology

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2015
The steady-state shear rheology of granular materials is investigated in slow quasistatic and inertial flows. The effect of gravity (thus the local pressure) and the often-neglected contact stiffness are the focus of this study.

Dynamics of the HIV Epidemic in MSM [PDF]

open access: yesBioMed Research International, 2014
This special issue documents a unique pattern of the HIV epidemic and its associated factors among men who have sex with men (MSM) in China. In high-income countries AIDS has disproportionately impacted MSM. MSM account for the preponderance of prevalent AIDS cases in the United States, Canada, the European Union, Australia, and New Zealand [1–11].

Risk Assessment of Pesticide Residues by GC-MSMS and UPLC-MSMS in Edible Vegetables

open access: yesMolecules, 2023
In recent years, there has been a significant increase related to pesticide residues in foods, which may increase the risks to the consumer of these foods with the different quality and concentrations of pesticide residues. Pesticides are used for controlling pests that reduce yields.

A general(ized) local rheology for wet granular materials

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2017
We study the rheology of dry and wet granular materials in the steady quasistatic regime using the discrete element method in a split-bottom ring shear cell with focus on the macroscopic friction.
