Aquaporin‐4 in Narcolepsy Type 1: Investigation of Perivascular Fluid Movement in Sleep Disorders

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Narcolepsy type 1 (NT1) is caused by the loss of hypocretin‐1 leading to excessive daytime sleepiness and cataplexy. Additionally, disrupted nighttime sleep has become an increasingly recognized feature of NT1. As the glymphatic fluid movement has been linked to sleep architecture, we investigated cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) Aquaporin‐4 (AQP4 ...

A comparison study of water impact and water exit models

open access: yesInternational Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering, 2014
: In problems of global hydroelastic ship response in severe seas including the whipping problem, we need to know the hydrodynamic forces acting on the ship hull during almost arbitrary ship motions.

Research of Wind–Wave–Ship Coupled Effects on Ship Airwake and Helicopter Aerodynamic Characteristics

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
The oceanic wind and waves, as well as the resultant ship motions, significantly impact the ship airwake and the operation of shipborne helicopters. A numerical method coupling wind, wave, ship and helicopter is developed using multiphase flow, in which ...

A Two‐Stage Questionnaire and Actigraphy Screening for iRBD in a Multicenter Retrospective Cohort

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Isolated rapid‐eye‐movement sleep behavior disorder is a prodromal marker of synucleinopathies. However, most cases remain undiagnosed due to the insufficient predictive value of questionnaires and limited access to confirmatory video‐polysomnography. We assessed a two‐stage screening strategy combining a brief questionnaire on rapid‐

Karl Popper and the Mechanisms of Hydrogen Embrittlement

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Representation of the beginning of loss of ductility rather than embrittlement. Small concentrations of hydrogen in a diffusible form within iron are well‐established to harm the mechanical integrity of steels. There are theories that attempt to explain the pernicious role of hydrogen.

CFD Investigation on Effect of Ship–Helicopter Coupling Motions on Aerodynamic Flow Field and Rotor Loads

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
As critical assets for surveillance, reconnaissance, and transport, shipborne helicopters play an indispensable role in modern maritime operations. Ensuring the safety and stability of shipboard landings is therefore of paramount importance, particularly

Increase of the Ship Fuel Consumption Due to Added Resistance in Waves

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems, 2017
Added resistance in waves is the second-order steady force dependant on the ship motions. It significantly affects ship operability and cause speed loss. Therefore the required power and fuel consumption of a ship advancing in a seaway are increasing. In

Motions Assessment Using a Time Domain Approach for a Research Ship in Antarctic Waters

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
An approach combining frequency and time domain analysis is introduced in this study for ship motions assessment. The open-source NEMOH code is utilized to compute the excitation forces and the hydrodynamic coefficients, while heave and pitch motions ...

A Versatile Microfluidic Extrusion‐Based Hydrogel Platform for Self‐Organization and Long‐Term Maintenance of Engineered 3D Lymphatic Endothelium

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Microfluidic coaxial extrusion generates size‐controlled 3D lymphatic tubes from primary human dermal lymphatic endothelial cells in a defined four‐component matrix. These engineered vessels self‐organize into stable lymphatic endothelium, maintain selective macromolecular permeability for 30 days, and enable direct comparison with blood endothelial ...

Designable van der Waals Crystal for Artificial Neuronal Cell Mimicking

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Designable van der Waals crystal has been demonstrated for device‐scale neuronal cell mimicking. The structural similarity between ion‐channel in biological membranes and layered vdW lattices is realized with nano‐crystallization via Ar + H2S plasma sulfurization.
