Modelling Artificial Stimulation and Response in Peripheral Nerves Including Ephaptic Interactions
… myelinated fibers influences activity in nerve trunks under artificial stimulation and during action potential propagation. Ephaptic interaction simulations in nerve trunks were performed to quantify this influence. For this, we created peripheral nerve models containing electrodes for …

Host plant effects on the biology, behavior and ecology of brown marmorated stink bug, Halyomorpha halys (Stål) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae)
… capture H. halys nymphs walking up and down tree trunks and used to measure their temporal patterns of movement onto and off of wild and tree fruit hosts at the orchard-woodland interface via weekly assessments during two consecutive seasons. More upward- than downward-walking nymphs were …

The design and prototyping of a Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation training system specific for aortic valve regurgitation.
… procedure, and uses three locating arms called trunks for easy implantation through temporary anchoring tactile feedback. Compared to majority of the delivery system in the market the heart of the patient doesn't need to be stopped when the SAT delivery device is being used and minimal imaging …

Review of recent morphological findings on the neuromuscular spindle
… in the neighborhood of the main intramuscular trunks, not necessarily occupying the muscle belly or region of nerve entry of the muscle, as was until recently believed to be true. The connective tissue capsule is composed of six thin concentric circular sheets of connective tissue containing …

Effects of Natural Enemies and Host Condition on Populations of Insect Pests of Trees
… in herbaceous stems or the large branches or trunks of woody plants. Of the parasitoid species that attack multiple host species, about half are limited to hosts of a single feeding niche, suggesting that some species of parasitoids may be limited in their ability to parasitize hosts of some …

ΒΕΛΤΙΩΣΗ ΤΗΣ ΤΕΧΝΙΚΗΣ ΔΟΚΙΜΑΣΤΙΚΩΝ ΤΗΛΕΦΩΝΙΚΩΝ ΚΛΗΣΕΩΝ
… LOCATION OF TRAFFIC BOTTLENECKS AT INTERMEDIATE TRUNKS OF THE ROUTES. IN THE SECOND PART A NEW METHOD OF ESTIMATING THE OFFERED TRAFFIC, THE LOAD AND THE LOSS FROM THE TEST-CALLING RESULTS AT EACH PART OF A TELEPHONE ROUTE IS PRESENTED. THE METHOD LEADS TO THE CONSTRUCTION OF TABLES AND DIAGRAMS …

A Molecular Phylogenetic Assessment of the North American Lichen Tiger Moths (Lepidoptera; Erebidae; Arctiinae; Lithosiini) with Life History Observations and a Description of a New Species from Central Arizona
… which feed on lichens growing on rocks and tree trunks, habitats where ants are primary predators. Finally, we describe a new species of Hypoprepia, H. lampyroides, from the mountains of central Arizona. This is the fifth member of the genus Hypoprepia, all of which occur in the US.

A Changing Climate Beneath Our Feet: How plant and microbial life in tropical soils are shifting and what that could mean for the future of our warming planet
… that absorb CO₂ for photosynthesis and woody trunks that store carbon as biomass. Carbon credits that companies and consumers buy to compensate for emissions they’ve produced are primarily calculated based on these parts, as are models that predict climate change impacts. But researchers are …

Aquaporin 4 and Kir4.1 Distribution in Retinal Glial Cells of Normal Macaque Eyes and Eyes with Experimental Glaucoma
… layer (OPL), around blood vessels, their trunks surrounding the nerve fiber bundles, and vitreal endfeet. AQP4 labeling co-localized to a lesser extent with the GFAP positive astrocytes of the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL). However, in eyes with experimental glaucoma and RNFL loss, AQP4 …

Investigating cost effective communication alternatives for geographically hostile regions
… links in each scenario were modelled as E1 trunks. The cost of establishing these links was determined. Each scenario was then subjected to generic input traffic patterns using a multiclass queueing network analysis model to determine its effectiveness. Our findings show that the scenario …

Restoring Upper Extremity Mobility through Functional Neuromuscular Stimulation using Macro Sieve Electrodes
… topographical organization in regenerated nerve trunks. In addition, theoretical limits of the recruitment selectivity of the device is explored and a set of optimal stimulation paradigms used to selectively activate fibers in different regions of the nerve are determined. Finally, the …

Nipping the bud hypothesis : a comparison of savannah and forest tree responses to canopy scorch
… similarities in the bark thickness of tree trunks. This difference is thought to influence the distributions of forest and savanna biomes. There is no consensus and very little research on how fires actually kill trees. Though tree canopies are too high above the flames to be charred, leaves …

Germanium tin nanowires: synergy at the nanoscale
… at. % Sn; fabricated in a one step growth. The trunks are seeded from Au0.80Ag0.20 nanoparticles followed by the epitaxial growth of secondary branches (diameter ~ 50 nm) from the excess of Sn on the sidewalls of the trunks, as determined by scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) and …
