European Journal of Translational Myology, 2015 Aging is a multifactorial irreversible process associated with significant decline in muscle mass and neuromuscular functions. One of the most efficient methods to counteract age-related changes in muscle mass and function is physical exercise. An alternative effective intervention to improve muscle structure and performance is electrical stimulation ...

Passive Janus Particles Are Self-propelled in Active Nematics [PDF]
New Journal of Physics 24, 012001 (2022), 2021 While active systems possess notable potential to form the foundation of new classes of autonomous materials, designing systems that can extract functional work from active surroundings has proven challenging. In this work, we extend these efforts to the realm of designed active liquid crystal/colloidal composites.

Fingering Instability of Active Nematic Droplets [PDF]
J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 55, 234009 (2022), 2022 From the mitotic spindle up to tissues and biofilms, many biological systems behave as active droplets, which often break symmetry and change shape spontaneously. Here, I show that active nematic droplets can experience a fingering instability. I consider an active fluid that acquires nematic order through anchoring at the droplet interface, and I ...

The Validity of Ultra-Short-Term Heart Rate Variability during Cycling Exercise
Sensors, 2023 Ultra-short-term heart rate variability (HRV) has been validated in the resting state, but its validity during exercise is unclear. This study aimed to examine the validity in ultra-short-term HRV during exercise considering the different exercise ...

Aging in thermal active glasses [PDF]
Phys. Rev. Research 4, L012038 (2022), 2021 It is well established that glassy materials can undergo aging, i.e., their properties gradually change over time. There is rapidly growing evidence that dense active and living systems also exhibit many features of glassy behavior, but it is still largely unknown how physical aging is manifested in such active glassy materials.
