Mechanical and electrical responses of natural-cooled high-temperature granite of different grain sizes by Peng Jia, Yijin Qian, Qiwei Wang, Songze Mao, Jialiang Lu

“…Corresponding to the compaction stage, crack initiation and stable propagation stage, and crack rapid propagation stage of rock under compressive load, changes in resistivity can be divided into three stages accordingly, including the initial rapid descent stage, the gentle descent stage, and the secondary rapid descent stage for the thermal-treated rock at 25–400 °C. …”

The fragility of marriage in matrilineal societies by Parkin, R

“…Matrilineal descent and the societies that have it have long been seen as being more in need of explanation than patrilineal descent, which tends to be treated as humanity's default when discussing descent. …”

Ambulatory measurement of knee motion and physical activity: preliminary evaluation of a smart activity monitor by Malchau Henrik, Rubash Harry, Freiberg Andrew, Scarborough Donna, Goldvasser Dov, Alaiti Amer, Huddleston James, Harris William, Krebs David

“…</p> <p>Results</p> <p>Pooled correlations between the BML and IDEEA knee flexion angles were .97 +/- .03 for step up/down, .98 +/- .02 for stair descent, and .98 +/- .01 for gait. In the BML protocol, the IDEEA accurately identified gait, but was less accurate in identifying step up/down and stair descent. …”
