Determination of failure limits for sterilizable solid rocket motor [PDF]
A structural evaluation to establish probable failure limits and a series of environmental tests involving temperature cycling, sustained acceleration, and vibration were conducted on an 18-inch diameter solid rocket motor. Despite the fact that thermal,

Fish welfare in a changing world: New developments and current challenges
Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.Abstract The welfare of non‐human animals is central to ethical discussions on animal use, with increasing attention to fish welfare across research, aquaria, aquaculture, and fisheries. This paper reviews current theoretical approaches to animal welfare and recent advances in defining and assessing fish welfare since the seminal paper by Huntingford ...

Journal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 2, April 2025.Summary The autonomic nervous system regulates cardiovascular activity during sleep, likely impacting cardiovascular health. Aging, a primary cardiovascular risk factor, is associated with cardiac autonomic disbalance and diminished sleep slow waves. Therefore, slow waves may be linked to aging, autonomic activity and cardiovascular health. However, it

Structural health monitoring of high voltage electrical switch ceramic insulators in seismic areas [PDF]
, 2014 High voltage electrical switches are crucial components to restart rapidly the electrical network right after an earthquake. But there currently exists no automatic procedure to check if these ceramic insulators have suffered after an earthquake, and ...

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.Using a wearable gait system, we compared MSTS, TESS, and KSS with objective spatiotemporal metrics in patients after rotating‐hinge knee reconstruction. TESS showed the highest median R2 and stronger correlations with walking velocity and step/stride length, outperforming MSTS and KSS.

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract During weightlessness, the human neuro–muscular–skeletal system undergoes maladaptation to the microgravity environment. The European Space Agency (ESA) project NEX4EX, ‘Novel Exercise Hardware for Exploration’, developed an advanced multipurpose exerciser offering resistive (RES), plyometric (PLYO) and sensorimotor (SENSO) exercises.

Lifestyle modification in atrial fibrillation: Mechanisms, phenotypes and ablation outcomes
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most prevalent sustained cardiac arrhythmia and is associated with significant morbidity, mortality and healthcare utilization. Catheter ablation is increasingly used as a rhythm‐control intervention for patients with symptomatic paroxysmal and persistent AF, yet recurrence rates remain suboptimal.
