Measuring Cerebral Activation From fNIRS Signals: An Approach Based on Compressive Sensing and Taylor-Fourier Model [PDF]
, 2016 Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is a noninvasive and portable neuroimaging technique that uses NIR light to monitor cerebral activity by the so-called haemodynamic responses (HRs).

High resolution, large deformation 3D traction force microscopy. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Traction Force Microscopy (TFM) is a powerful approach for quantifying cell-material interactions that over the last two decades has contributed significantly to our understanding of cellular mechanosensing and mechanotransduction.

Three-Dimensional Quantification of Cellular Traction Forces and Mechanosensing of Thin Substrata by Fourier Traction Force Microscopy [PDF]
, 2013 We introduce a novel three-dimensional (3D) traction force microscopy (TFM) method motivated by the recent discovery that cells adhering on plane surfaces exert both in-plane and out-of-plane traction stresses.

Relation of Absolute or Relative Adiposity to Insulin Resistance, Retinol Binding Protein-4, Leptin, and Adiponectin in Type 2 Diabetes [PDF]
Diabetes & Metabolism Journal, 2012 BackgroundCentral fat mass (CFM) correlates with insulin resistance and increases the risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular complications; however, peripheral fat mass (PFM) is associated with insulin sensitivity.

Hybrid two-fluid DEM simulation of gas-solid fluidized beds. [PDF]
, 2007 Simulations of gas-solid fluidized beds have been performed using a hybrid simulation method, which couples the discrete element method (DEM) for particle dynamics with the averaged two-fluid (TF) continuum equations for the gas phase.

Design of singlet fission chromophores with cyclic (alkyl)(amino) carbene building blocks [PDF]
, 2019 We use MRSF-TDDFT and NEVPT2 methods to design singlet fission chromophores with the building blocks of cyclic (alkyl)(amino)carbenes (CAACs). CAAC dimers with C2, C4, and p-phenylene spacers are considered.

A mean field dynamo from negative eddy diffusivity [PDF]
, 2013 Using direct numerical simulations, we verify that "flow IV" of Roberts (1972) exhibits dynamo action dominated by horizontally averaged large-scale magnetic field. With the test-field method we compute the turbulent magnetic diffusivity and find that it
