Erythrocyte ‘Feierzeit’ reaction: Novel filamentous and vesicular response to n‐butyl acetate
Abstract Human erythrocytes (red blood cells; RBCs) undergo spontaneous disassembly after several hours of exposure to n‐butyl acetate (nBA). Images of the morphological changes were captured in time‐lapse sequences using differential interference contrast (DIC) light microscopy.

Locomotion control of a novel snake-like robot
It is essential to design a joint mechanism for snake-like robots to exhibit more mobility, no singularity and powerful actuation for many applications.

A three‐dimensional model is used to analyze the locomotor biomechanics of the large Late Triassic archosaurian reptile Postosuchus kirkpatricki. The study finds that it is more uncertain than previously concluded whether it was quadrupedal or bipedal, and plantigrade or digitigrade, but it clearly had locomotor specializations including large hindlimb

Abstract Semantic fluency, the ability to retrieve words within a category, relies on lexical knowledge, semantic memory and executive control mechanisms. A richer, interconnected semantic memory and optimal executive control, as seen in creative individuals, enhance fluency through broad associative searches and quicker access to remote concepts ...

Kinematic analysis of snake-like robot using sliding joints
The snake-like robot can be adaptive to many terrains with its abundant gaits. Serpentine locomotion is adopted widely, while concertina, side winding and rectilinear motions are considered little. To improve the adaptability in non-known environment, it

Optimization of CPG-network for decentralized control of a snake-like robot
Periodic locomotion of animal bodies with large degree of freedom is known to be realized by decentralized control using network of central pattern generators (CPGs) that are distributed in spinal cord (in vertebrates) or nerve cords (in invertebrates ...

ABSTRACT Fault‐tolerant monitoring and reliable node identification are essential requirements in modern hierarchical communication systems such as IoT–Fog–Cloud architectures and distributed sensing networks. The fault‐tolerant metric dimension (FTMD) provides an effective graph‐theoretic framework for resilient localization and monitoring in such ...

CPG-based control of serpentine locomotion of a snake-like robot
In this paper, a biomimetic approach is proposed to solve the difficulty in control of a snake-like robot with a large number of degrees of freedom.

Renal Perfusion in Healthy Horses: A Feasibility Study With Contrast‐Enhanced Ultrasound
ABSTRACT This study assessed the feasibility of contrast‐enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) for evaluating renal perfusion in horses and compared perfusion parameters between age groups. In a prospective study, eight healthy horses were divided into young (3–5 years, n = 4) and old (16–17 years, n = 4) groups.

Motion planning of a snake-like robot based on artificial potential method
The interaction between the snake-like robot and environment produces serpentine action to push the body forward. A slender body shape made from many modules occupies a larger scale.
