The Influence of Heterogeneous Meninges on the Brain Mechanics under Primary Blast Loading
In the modeling of brain mechanics subjected to primary blast waves, there is currently no consensus on how many biological components to be used in the brain–meninges–skull complex, and what type of constitutive models to be adopted.

Abstract Earthflows are landslides in fine‐grained materials that alternate long dormant phases of very slow movement with short paroxysmal stages of rapid motion. These rapid phases are highly destructive, often causing severe damage to buildings and infrastructure.

This article analyses a new wealth tax (the IGF) in Bolivia against the backdrop of the 2019 ousting of former president Evo Morales. In doing so, it engages calls for ‘a return to politics’ in anthropology by proposing the notion of a ‘fiscal grievance politics’ as animating elite opposition to the tax in lowland Santa Cruz department. I show that the

ABSTRACT This article follows producers of Kai Language Heroes, the first Indigenous language game show in the world, as they adapted the genre for language revitalization. Kai Language Heroes is one of many original programs at Taiwan Indigenous Television (TITV), a public broadcaster that serves Taiwan's diverse Austronesian‐speaking peoples. I argue

Minor epic: Notes toward a different “Anthropoetry”
Abstract Anthropologists have often turned to poetry as a means of accessing emotional registers of which conventional academic prose is unable to avail. In doing so, they have tacitly conflated poetry with lyric poetry, today probably the most widely practiced poetic genre, associated in particular with the expression of inner feelings and subjectival

Characterisation of Blast Loading from Ideal and Non-Ideal Explosives [PDF]
Explosive detonation in its simplest form can be characterised by an instantaneous release of energy at an infinitely small point in space as a solid explosive material.

Transcriptional profiling of the primary cell envelope stress response (CESR) of Bacillus subtilis exposed to a range of cell wall‐targeting antimicrobials, combining RNAseq and high‐resolution tiling arrays. We revealed the complexity of the CESR, the contribution of extracytoplasmic function sigma factors (ECFs) and two‐component signal transduction ...

Attributes of Astrocyte Response to Mechano-Stimulation by High-Rate Overpressure
Blast neurotrauma represents a significant mode of traumatic injury to the brain. The incidence of blast neurotrauma is particularly high amongst military combat personnel and can be debilitating and endure clinically for years after injury is sustained.

Numerical simulation of the two-phase nozzle flows with phase change effects
碩士為了要模擬噴嘴內氣泡震波空蝕現象的發生,在數值模擬方面本文採用了ROE的通量分離法。以推導原始的ROE方程後改寫成代數式的型式,而以此方法可以提高運算的效率。空間離散則使用Muscl+Limiter,而在時間離散上採用具TVD效應之三階Runge-Kutta法。吾人以代數式型式的ROE模擬一維的震波管及爆炸波問題作驗證,得到的結果與真實黎曼解幾乎是一致的。接著模擬二維的噴嘴,在採用 紊流模式時能模擬出週期性變化,及空蝕係數大於1.5後可抑制空蝕氣泡的產生。最後模擬二維及軸對稱注油器 ...
