Women in space: A review of known physiological adaptations and health perspectives
Abstract Exposure to the spaceflight environment causes adaptations in most human physiological systems, many of which are thought to affect women differently from men. Since only 11.5% of astronauts worldwide have been female, these issues are largely understudied.

How Stirling Engines Work [PDF]
The Stirling engine is a heat engine that is vastly different from the internal-combustion engine in your car. A Stirling engine uses the Stirling cycle, which is unlike the cycles used in internal-combustion engines.

Nodal Analysis of Stirling Cycle Devices [PDF]
This paper describes a general-purpose program for the nodal analysis of Stirling-cycle devices or other cyclic regenerative machines, and presents an extensive discussion of results for an illustrative problem. The program employs finite-difference, explicit-forward solutions, and is readily adaptable to various machine topologies.

Invariant Measure and Universality of the 2D Yang–Mills Langevin Dynamic
ABSTRACT We prove that the Yang–Mills (YM) measure for the trivial principal bundle over the two‐dimensional torus, with any connected, compact structure group, is invariant for the associated renormalised Langevin dynamic. Our argument relies on a combination of regularity structures, lattice gauge‐fixing and Bourgain's method for invariant measures ...

Development of a solar powered refrigeration system: Stirling-cycle based [PDF]
Solar refrigeration has been tirelessly studied since the 1970s. Yet, no renewable technology has been superior to the conventional grid powered technology for household applications.

Revisiting the status of the Arctic's Last Ice Area as a refuge for marine predators
Abstract The Last Ice Area (LIA), located north of the Canadian Arctic Archipelago and Greenland, has the Arctic's oldest and thickest sea ice. The LIA is hypothesized to be a potential climate refuge for ice‐dependent top predators as Arctic sea ice continues to decline.

ABSTRACT Background In the presence of pain, performance during imposed workload motor tasks may be maintained at the cost of a higher perceived effort. This study investigated how experimentally induced contralateral thermal pain and naturally occurring muscle pain influence force production during a fixed perceived effort task.
