Land Lapse Phenomenon and Surface Subsidence Law of Shield Tunnel Passing Through Rock-Bearing Formation

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022
When constructing subway tunnels in coastal cities, boulders with high strength and large volume are often encountered. A large number of engineering practices have shown that the existence of boulders will destroy the unity and homogeneity of the ...

Modelo de suspensão pela cauda e seu efeito em algumas propriedades mecânicas do osso do rato Model of tail suspension and its effect in some mechanical properties of the rat bone

Acta Ortopédica Brasileira, 2004
A manutenção do metabolismo mineral normal dos ossos é um resultado de vários fatores inclusive das solicitações mecânicas que são aplicadas aos ossos pelas contrações musculares e pela força da gravidade.

Validation of Material Algorithms for Femur Remodelling Using Medical Image Data

Applied Bionics and Biomechanics, 2017
The aim of this study is the utilization of human medical CT images to quantitatively evaluate two sorts of “error-driven” material algorithms, that is, the isotropic and orthotropic algorithms, for bone remodelling. The bone remodelling simulations were

Weightlessness and cardiac rhythm disorders: current knowledge from space flight and bed-rest studies

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2016
Isolated episodes of heart rhythm disorders have been reported during 40 years of space flight, triggering research to evaluate the risk of developing life-threatening arrhythmias induced by prolonged exposure to weightlessness.

Microgravity simulation by diamagnetic levitation: effects of a strong gradient magnetic field on the transcriptional profile of Drosophila melanogaster

BMC Genomics, 2012
Background Many biological systems respond to the presence or absence of gravity. Since experiments performed in space are expensive and can only be undertaken infrequently, Earth-based simulation techniques are used to investigate the biological ...

Comportamento mecânico do terço proximal de fêmures de ratos após período de suspensão pela cauda e exercitação Mechanical behavior of rats' femoral proximal thirds after a period of tail suspension and exercises

Acta Ortopédica Brasileira, 2007
A remodelação óssea pode ser estimulada por forças mecânicas presentes nas atividades físicas normais. Neste trabalho foi analisado o comportamento mecânico do terço proximal de fêmur de ratas submetidas à suspensão pela cauda e posterior treinamento em ...

P‐glycoprotein modulates the fluidity gradient of the plasma membrane of multidrug resistant CHO cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
To explore the impact of the overexpression of the multidrug‐transporter P‐glycoprotein (ABCB1) on membrane fluidity, we compared the transversal gradient of mobility and microviscosity in plasma membranes of drug‐sensitive Chinese hamster ovary cells (AuxB1) and their multidrug‐resistant derivatives (B30) using the fluorescent n‐(9‐anthroyloxy) fatty ...
