Molecular Interactions at Asperity Contacts Under Boundary Lubrication

Boundary lubrication plays a crucial role in determining the service performance and operational lifespan of mechanical components. However, continuum mechanics models and experimental studies are unable to elucidate the dynamic evolution o...

Dynamic of upper body sweat distribution in young males wearing fully encapsulated chemical protective ensembles

Abstract Impermeability is a feature of fully encapsulated chemical protective ensembles (FCPE), which can affect people's sweat and affect their clothing's thermal-wet comfort. This study investigated the dynamics of upper-body sweat distr...

Development of Knitted Compression Covers for Amputated Limbs

Compression therapy can be successfully applied to the treatment of amputated limbs. Compression is known to speed healing and reduce the appearance of complex scars. This is particularly relevant as the number of amputations increases, esp...

Complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Koelreuteria paniculata (Sapindaceae) and comparative analysis within the family Sapindaceae

Abstract Koelreuteria paniculata (Sapindaceae) is an economically and culturally important species with ornamental traits, durable wood, and medicinal use. Plant mitochondrial (MT) genomes exhibit complex structures and variations in size. ...

Assumption-free estimation of heritability from genome-wide identity-by-descent sharing between full siblings.

The study of continuously varying, quantitative traits is important in evolutionary biology, agriculture, and medicine. Variation in such traits is attributable to many, possibly interacting, genes whose expression may be sensitive to the e...

Calmodulin-binding transcription activator (CAMTA) genes family: Genome-wide survey and phylogenetic analysis in flax (Linum usitatissimum).

Flax (Linum usitatissimum) is a member of family linaceae with annual growth habit. It is included among those crops which were domesticated very early and has been used in development related studies as a model plant. In plants, Calmodulin...
