High Strength Steel (HSS) characterization for numerical simulation of defence applications: from data collection to triaxiality model validation [PDF]
This paper details the methodology developed to fit a material strength/failure model with mesh sensitivity, strain rate influence and triaxiality effect on plastic failure for a blast/ballistic configuration for a HSS plate. Data collection in different

The Information Metric on the moduli space of instantons with global symmetries [PDF]
In this note we revisit Hitchin's prescription \cite{Hitchin} of the Fisher metric as a natural measure on the moduli space of instantons that encodes the space-time symmetries of a classical field theory.

Expression of hemoglobin α and β subunits in different types of rat vasculatures
Objective To clarify whether hemoglobin (Hb) α and β subunits are expressed in rat blood vessels, and whether there are differences in expression levels between different types of vasculatures.

Quantitative analysis of intermuscular septa in the leg: implications for trauma surgery
Background Compartment syndrome is the excess swelling within an inelastic compartment leading to excessive compartment pressure. Lower limb trauma has a high risk of compartment syndrome, which is typically mitigated using a two-incision fasciotomy. Our
