Side to Side Swaying as a Defensive Behaviour in the Dekay’s Brownsnake (Storeria dekayi)

open access: yes, 2018
When discovered by humans, Dekay’s Brownsnake (Storeria dekayi) exhibits a range of defensive behaviours that are likely used to cope with a variety of potential predators.

RESEARCH ON NONLINEAR DYNAMICS OF MARINE ROTOR-BEARING SYSTEM UNDER COMPLEX TRANSPORT MOTIONS

open access: yesJixie qiangdu
In order to reveal the nonlinear dynamics behavior of the marine rotor-bearing system under complex transport motions (heaving, swaying, yawing and pitching), the dynamical model of the rotor-bearing system with the nonlinear oil film force and transport

How can children and young people have a voice in urban treescapes?

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Scientific understanding of climate change has, to date, failed to result in sufficient action. This paper proposes that a deficit model of top‐down learning and dissemination in relation to public engagement with science may be part of the problem, particularly when considering the attitudes, values and empowerment of children and young ...

Analysis of balance in adults with chronic axial spinal pain receiving medial branch block or radiofrequency ablation procedures

open access: yesPM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Medial branch blocks (MBB) and radiofrequency ablations (RFA) are common diagnostic, prognostic, and interventional procedures performed for the management of cervical and lumbar spine facetogenic pain. Although these procedures have established utility as pain management strategies, it is unclear if the disruption in function of ...

A study on the animations of swaying and breaking trees based on a particle-based simulation

open access: yes, 2012
In this paper, we propose a particle-based simulation method to create the animations of swaying and breaking trees. Since the shapes of trees and their realistic motions are usually complex, it is difficult for us to create an animation of a swaying ...
