Multicellular Tumor Spheroid in an off-lattice Voronoi/Delaunay cell model
We study multicellular tumor spheroids by introducing a new three-dimensional agent-based Voronoi/Delaunay hybrid model. In this model, the cell shape varies from spherical in thin solution to convex polyhedral in dense tissues. The next neighbors of the

Catchment-scale Richards equation-based modeling of evapotranspiration via boundary condition switching and root water uptake schemes [PDF]
In arid and semiarid climate catchments, where annual evapotranspiration (ET) and rainfall are typically comparable, modeling ET is important for proper assessment of water availability and sustainable land use management. The aim of the present study is

Comparison of stimulation patterns for FES-cycling using measures of oxygen cost and stimulation cost [PDF]
<b>Aim</b><p></p> The energy efficiency of FES-cycling in spinal cord injured subjects is very much lower than that of normal cycling, and efficiency is dependent upon the parameters of muscle stimulation.

Maximal and anaerobic threshold cardiorespiratory responses during deepwater running
Aquatic exercises provide numerous benefits to the health of their practitioners. To secure these benefits, it is essential to have proper prescriptions to the needs of each individual and, therefore, it is important to study the cardiorespiratory ...
