Laboratory Evaluation of Organic and Chemical Warm Mix Asphalt Technologies for SMA Asphalt
The Baltic Journal of Road and Bridge Engineering, 2012 Warm mix asphalt (WMA) technologies allow significant lowering of the production and paving temperature of the conventional hot mix asphalt (HMA), which promise various benefits, e.g. lowering the greenhouse gas emissions, reduction of energy consumption,

3D Collagen-Nanocellulose Matrices Model the Tumour Microenvironment of Pancreatic Cancer
Frontiers in Digital Health, 2021 Three-dimensional (3D) cancer models are invaluable tools designed to study tumour biology and new treatments. Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), one of the deadliest types of cancer, has been progressively explored with bioengineered 3D approaches

Pulse, 2013 Stiffness of large arteries has been long recognized as a significant determinant of pulse pressure. However, it is only in recent decades, with the accumulation of longitudinal data from large and varied epidemiological studies of morbidity and mortality associated with cardiovascular disease, that it has emerged as an independent predictor of ...

Holographic aberration correction: optimising the stiffness of an optical trap deep in the sample [PDF]
, 2011 We investigate the effects of 1st order spherical aberration and defocus upon the stiffness of an optical trap tens of μm into the sample. We control both these aberrations with a spatial light modulator. The key to maintain optimum trap stiffness over a

Estimation of the normal contact stiffness for frictional interface in sticking and sliding conditions [PDF]
, 2019 Modeling of frictional contact systems with high accuracy needs the knowledge of several contact parameters, which are mainly related to the local phenomena at the contact interfaces and affect the complex dynamics of mechanical systems in a prominent ...

P5.19 STIFF ARTERIES, STIFF HEARTS?
Artery Research, 2013 Objectives: To examine the relationship between arterial stiffness and diastolic function in healthy normotensive subjects. Methods: For this study, 43 male (40±10 years) and 64 female (40±9 years) subjects were recruited. All were lifelong non-smokers, normolipidaemic, normoglycaemic and had normal 24-hour blood pressure responses (SBP\DBP <140\90).

Morphological and functional changes in the vertebral column with increasing aquatic adaptation in crocodylomorphs [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2015 The lineage leading to modern Crocodylia has undergone dramatic evolutionary changes in morphology, ecology and locomotion over the past 200+ Myr. These functional innovations may be explained in part by morphological changes in the axial skeleton, which
