Over the last decade, our understanding of the physiological role of senescent cells has drastically evolved, from merely indicators of cellular stress and ageing to having a Bobble Head central role in regeneration and repair.Increasingly, studies have identified senescent cells and the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) as being cri
We present the case of a woman diagnosed with a teratoma adherent to the vaginal wall.The patient had been misdiagnosed with an ovarian teratoma 8 years previously at her Pokers local hospital, but no mass was found in the pelvic cavity during cesarean section.She therefore attended our institution for further examination.Transvaginal ultrasonograp
This study proposes a general reduced vehicle model for simulating truck-bridge pier collisions.The model was calibrated using high-fidelity finite element (FE) simulations based on LS-DYNA of three types of trucks (i.e., light, medium, and heavy) impacting with rigid bridge piers.Key parameters influencing the vehicular impact force, such as cross
Nanoparticles have as characteristics super sliding, extreme pressure, self-healing, etc., which can improve the friction reduction and anti-wear performance of sliding components, when used as lubricating oil additives.Nano-copper particles have a good synergistic effect with other antifriction agents, anti-wear agents, antioxidants and grease her
