How morphogenetic movements are robustly coordinated in space and time is a fundamental open question in biology. We study this question using the wing of Drosophila melanogaster, an epithelial tissue that undergoes large-scale tissue flows during pupal ...

Assessment of wing deformation influence on airload determination at the initial design stages
At designing aircraft, much attention is given to the wing, as one of the most critical elements of the airframe. It is necessary to have a clear-eyed outlook at response sequence, efficiency of various factors and calculation features on the receipt ...

Three-dimensional vortex structure in a wake of a free-flight butterfly
A number of studies on not only the mechanism of insect flight but also the flow field around insect wings have been performed. Especially, a number of recent studies have examined the flow field around insect wings using experimental and numerical ...

Local anesthetic procedures are commonly used in domestic and wild birds, because of its low cost and fast induction, as long as applied with great precision, which requires specific anatomical knowledge of the site of incision.

The move from NHS general dental practice into the 'bright and shiny' world of the private sector seems to have a very odd effect on some people, somewhat akin to the 'evangelical' conversion that occurs on discovering a new belief system or new way of doing things.

Face-à-face avec l’ange : du regard frontal de l’art byzantin au « regard à la caméra »
The frontal, hieratic gaze of the Byzantine and, later, Romanic angel in Christian iconography fades away as humanism triumphs during the Renaissance. The angel looks away from the spectator, reflecting changes in religious and ideological practice and ...

The aerodynamic effects of wing–wing interaction in flapping insect wings
SUMMARYWe employed a dynamically scaled mechanical model of the small fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster (Reynolds number 100–200) to investigate force enhancement due to contralateral wing interactions during stroke reversal (the `clap-and-fling'). The results suggest that lift enhancement during clap-and-fling requires an angular separation between ...

STUDY THE CHARACTERISTICS OF SMALL AND VERY SMALL SPAN WINGS, USED ON SHIPS [PDF]
This scientific work presents the way in which the small, and very small span wings can be obtainedstarting from the great span wings and using the two scales of the similarity theory.
