The Nuances of Locomotor Strategies in Suspensory Primates (Apes): Locomotor Costs in Terms of Skeletal Injury
… of this study is twofold. First, to assess fracture patterns relative to variation in locomotion, ecology, and body mass among suspensory apes. Second, to quantify change in compact bone geometry associated with bone fracture and bone remodeling in suspensory apes.</p> <p>To obtain the first …

Bone health and fracture risk among peripubertal and adolescent children. Importance of body weight, distribution of adipose tissue and the presence of metabolic abnormalities // Костно здраве и фрактурен риск сред деца в перипубертетна и юношеска възраст – значение на телесното тегло, разпределението на мастната тъкан и наличието на метаболитни отклонения
Childhood fractures are a particularly common paediatric problem. The data available to date unequivocally indicate that adipose tissue is an active participant in the regulation of bone homeostasis, and obesity is a new and recently recognised potential risk factor for disorders in bone strength. …

Transient behavior of liquid jets injected normal to a high velocity gas stream
… of the droplets caused by the passage of fractured clumps through the spray plume. Also evident in the droplet size distributions was the very small size of the droplets that had been sheared off the windward surfaces of the jet. The jet fracture frequency was related to the frequency of …

Site characterization using drone based photogrammetry
… characterization was assessed to remotely gauge fracture frequency and rock quality metrics by revealing probabilistic variations in spacing, volumetric joint count, Rock Quality Designation (RQD), rock block volume, and Geological Strength Index (GSI) in each structural domain.
