Abstract Jet pulse assembly is one of the main components of jet hydraulic oscillator.The pressure wave characteristics produced by jet pulse assembly have an important influence on the performance of the tool.In this paper, the structure and working principle of jet pulse assembly are studied, the mechanical analysis model of piston rod is establi
Abstract Background Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is a genetic disorder that is highly comorbid with anxiety and autism spectrum disorder (ASD).Elevated negative affect in young children has been associated with increased risk for both anxiety and ASD; however, these relations remain poorly understood in FXS.Methods The present prospective longitudinal
Summary: Myofibroblasts are responsible for scarring during fibrosis.The scar propagates mechanical signals inducing a radical transformation in myofibroblast cell state and increasing profibrotic phenotype.Here, we show mechanical stress from progressive scarring induces nuclear softening and de-repression of heterochromatin.The parallel loss of H
Predators have a major influence on prey populations and broader ecosystem dynamics through both their consumptive and non-consumptive effects.Prey employ risk-induced trait responses such as shifts in habitat use or changes in foraging behavior in response to the presence of predators.Risk-induced changes in foraging depend upon both the predator
