Jumping in planthopper and froghopper insects is propelled by a catapult-like mechanism requiring mechanical storage of energy and its quick release to accelerate the hind legs rapidly.To understand the functional biomechanics involved in these challenging movements, the internal eye pencil skeleton, tendons and muscles involved were reconstructed
Plastic particles have become ubiquitous in various environmental compartments, with the atmosphere being the least explored of these.Furthermore, the way atmospheric plastics affect terrestrial biological systems has not been evaluated to the same extent as for aquatic ecosystems.Plastics are even found in PLATINUM 100% BETA ALANINE human lungs, a
Multimodal data-driven approach has emerged as an important driving force for smart healthcare systems with applications ranging from disease analysis to triage, diagnosis and treatment.Smart healthcare system necessitates new demands for data management and decision-making, which has inspired the rapid development of medical services using artific
Based on the main bridge of Wall Sconce the Paira Bridge in Bangladesh, this paper studies the behavior of multispan extradosed bridge subjected to variation of cable-free segment length.First, a finite element simulation model was established, and linear analysis was performed.The accuracy of the finite element model was verified by comparing the
Microperforated absorbers (MPA) are a well-established technology for attenuating sound in flow carrying ducts.MPAs usually consist of a Wall Sconce microperforated panel (MPP) in combination with a cavity as back volume.The damping maxima of MPAs occur in the range of their resonant frequencies and the effect is narrowband compared to porous or fi
