Study on the dynamic load sharing characteristics of nutation face gear transmission

Discover Applied Sciences
The nutation face gear transmission is a type of power splitting, and the effects of system parameters such as stiffness and transmission error on load distribution are not yet well understood. The Load Tooth Contact Analysis (LTCA) technique was used to

In‐vitro puncture experiment using alligator teeth tracks the formation of dental microwear and its association with hardness of the diet

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract With the development of dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA), there has been an increasing application of DMTA for dietary estimation in extant and fossil reptiles, including dinosaurs. While numerous feeding experiments exist for herbivorous mammals, knowledge remains limited for carnivorous reptiles. This study aimed to qualitatively and

Variation in parrot jaw musculature

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Interspecific morphological differences in some superficial jaw muscles of parrots. Abstract Psittaciformes, the order encompassing parrots and their relatives, are highly diverse and generally known for having a strong beaks used for multiple behaviors. The muscles related to the masticatory apparatus should reflect this functional complexity; however,

The Nutation Damping Control of a Spacecraft [PDF]

Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 1994
In this paper, the Variable Structure System(VSS) theory with new continuous switching dynamic equation is used to design an automatic controller for the active nutation damping in momentum bias stabilized spacecraft.

Pelvic morphology and body size in relation to the preauricular sulcus: Evidence from medieval to modern Iberia

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The preauricular sulcus has long been debated as a pelvic feature variably attributed to obstetric stress, ligamentous traction, and broader biomechanical processes. To clarify its determinants, we analyzed 409 adult individuals from three archeological and one early modern skeletal collection from the Iberian Peninsula, integrating graded ...

Morpho‐functional analyses of the jaw apparatus in the Blue‐and‐yellow Macaw (Ara ararauna, Psittaciformes, Aves): Adaptations to feeding behavior

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Macaws are renowned for processing dry, mechanically resistant fruits, yet the species‐level anatomical and functional correlates of this performance remain incompletely resolved. We examined the feeding apparatus of the Blue‐and‐yellow Macaw (Ara ararauna) using an integrated approach that combines osteology, myology, and bite‐force estimates

Face and Construct Validity of a Grapefruit Arthroscopy Training Model With Active Fluid Management

Arthroscopy, Sports Medicine, and Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Purpose To evaluate the face and construct validity of a grapefruit arthroscopy training model with active fluid management across varying levels of arthroscopic experience. Methods Orthopaedic residents, fellows, and attending surgeons were stratified into novice (n = 10), intermediate (n = 10), and advanced (n = 9) groups.

How flagellated bacteria wobble

Physical Review Research
The wobbling motion of flagellated bacteria significantly influences their swimming behavior, yet its dynamics remains poorly understood, primarily due to the difficulty in tracking the 3D orientations of both the flagellar bundle and the cell body. Here,

Making teaching an attractive profession: What are the challenges and opportunities for minority ethnic teachers in England?

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores the challenges and opportunities surrounding the recruitment and retention of minority ethnic teachers in England. Drawing on interview data from 33 teachers and school leaders of diverse ethnic backgrounds, it investigates whether racialised barriers identified in earlier research have shifted in the current context of ...

Electron Spin Relaxations in Biological [2Fe-2S] Cluster System

, 2015
The phase coherence relaxation times as long as $T_2\sim830-1030\pm20$ ns were measured for the [2Fe-2S] cluster in the intrinsic protein environment. This relaxation corresponds to a relatively long lasting coherence of the low-spin $S=1/2$ state.
