Abstract Background In a broad variety of species, muscle contraction is controlled at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ), the peripheral synapse composed of a motor nerve terminal, a muscle specialization, and non-myelinating terminal Schwann cells.While peripheral nerve damage leads to successful NMJ reinnervation in animal models, muscle fiber rei
Abstract In this research work, an exact analytical solution for frequency characteristics of the free vibration of rotating functionally graded material (FGM) truncated conical shells reinforced by eccentric FGM stringers and rings has been investigated by the displacement function method.Material properties of shell and stiffeners are assumed to
This contribution critically examines the relevance of infographics for semiotic research, especially insofar as perception and cognition are concerned.After a theoretical discussion of the debate that animates graphic designers themselves, and rereading the classic contribution of Tufte about data display, the essay cross-compares three different
To the Editor, The use of cryopreserved homografts as complete aortic root replacements was introduced for the first time over 3 decades ago with considerable advantages with respect to biological heart valves such as greater durability, lower risk of endocarditis, and better hemodynamic profile with a much greater preservation of the ventricular f
In automotive application new Adjustable Electric Beds point-to-point (P2P) wideband communication systems e.g.Automotive Ethernet 100BASE-T1 imply an increasing effort in safeguarding its electromagnetic compatibility (EMC).The state-of-the-art EMC safeguarding process proposes a pre-compliant system level test before the vehicle level test, which
