The intricate interplay between climate and tectonics profoundly shapes landscapes over time frames surpassing 10 million years.Active tectonic processes and climatic shifts unsettle established drainage systems, instigating fragmentation or amalgamation of watersheds.These activities yield substantial transformation in surface hydrologic connectiv
The delivery of kilohertz frequency alternating current (KHFAC) generates rapid, controlled, and reversible conduction block in motor, sensory, and autonomic nerves, but causes transient Fat Eighth Bundles activation of action potentials at the onset of the blocking current.We implemented a novel engineering optimization approach to design blocking
This paper proposes a novel data-centric framework Projector Screens for microscopic traffic flow simulation with intra and inter driver heterogeneity.We utilized a naturalistic driving corpus of 46 different drivers to learn and model the behavior divergence of Japanese drivers.First, ego-driver behavior signals are used to extract unique features
Spexin (SPX) is a newly identified peptide hormone of 14 amino acids (aa) with pleiotropic functions in vertebrates, and recently a second paralog of SPX (named SPX2) has been only found in some non-mammalian species (the previous form of SPX is now designated as SPX1).Results of previous studies have revealed the existence of a functional SPX1 in
Machined surfaces are rough from a microscopic perspective no matter how finely they are finished.Surface roughness is an important factor to consider during production quality control.Using modern techniques, Sanitizer Test Strips/Labels surface roughness measurements are beneficial for improving machining quality.With optical imaging of machined
