Mechanical behavior and optimization of constitutive prediction model for Epoxy/Al energetic composite materials considering temperature and strain rate effects by Zhenhui He, Enling Tang, Wenjin Yao, Ruizhi Wang

“…Due to the deformation, displacement, and interfacial debonding of internal particles during the loading process, Epoxy/Al materials exhibit excellent impact energy absorption effects, with energy absorption reaching 15.30 MJ/m3 at room temperature, and unit mass cost much lower than popular CFRP (carbon fiber-reinforced polymer) materials (CFRP energy absorption cost is 0.268 J/g/£, while Epoxy/Al materials do not exceed 0.013 J/g/£). …”

Ischemia Enhances the Acute Stretch-Induced Increase in Calcium Spark Rate in Ventricular Myocytes by Breanne A. Cameron, Hiroaki Kai, Keiko Kaihara, Gentaro Iribe, Gentaro Iribe, T. Alexander Quinn, T. Alexander Quinn

“…We hypothesized that ischemia would enhance the increase of Ca2+ sparks and ROS that occurs with stretch.Methods: Isolated ventricular myocytes from mice (male, C57BL/6J) were loaded with fluorescent dye to detect Ca2+ sparks (4.6 μM Fluo-4, 10 min) or ROS (1 μM DCF, 20 min), exposed to normal Tyrode (NT) or simulated ischemia (SI) solution (hyperkalemia [15 mM potassium], acidosis [6.5 pH], and metabolic inhibition [1 mM sodium cyanide, 20 mM 2-deoxyglucose]), and subjected to sustained stretch by the carbon fiber technique (~10% increase in sarcomere length, 15 s). …”

Cocaine-Induced Changes in Tonic Dopamine Concentrations Measured Using Multiple-Cyclic Square Wave Voltammetry in vivo by Jason Yuen, Jason Yuen, Abhinav Goyal, Abhinav Goyal, Aaron E. Rusheen, Aaron E. Rusheen, Abbas Z. Kouzani, Michael Berk, Jee Hyun Kim, Susannah J. Tye, Charles D. Blaha, Kevin E. Bennet, Kevin E. Bennet, Dong-Pyo Jang, Kendall H. Lee, Kendall H. Lee, Hojin Shin, Yoonbae Oh, Yoonbae Oh

“…Here, we utilized M-CSWV and fast-scan cyclic voltammetry (FSCV) to measure changes in tonic or phasic dopamine release in the nucleus accumbens core (NAcc) after acute cocaine administration. Carbon-fiber microelectrodes (CFM) and stimulating electrodes were implanted into the NAcc and medial forebrain bundle (MFB) of urethane anesthetized (1.5 g/kg i.p.) …”

WISDOM: the WIYN spectrograph for Doppler monitoring: a NASA-NSF concept for an extreme precision radial velocity instrument in support of TESS by Barnes, Stuart I., Buchhave, Lars A., Phillips, David, Shectman, Stephen, Walsworth, Ronald, Furesz, Gabor, Egan, Mark, Hellickson, Timothy H, Malonis, Andrew C., Woods, Deborah F., Simcoe, Robert A., Foster, Richard F., Winn, Joshua Nathan

“…Its R4 and R6 echelle gratings provide the main dispersion, symmetrically mounted on either side of a vertically aligned, vacuum-enclosed carbon fiber optical bench. Each grating feeds two cameras and thus the resulting wavelength range per camera is narrow enough that the VPHG cross-dispersers and employed anti-reflection coatings are highly efficient. …”
