Identification and characterisation of the haematopoietic stem/progenitor cells at risk for leukaemia development following radiation exposure by Verbiest, T

“…We report here, for the first time, that allogeneic haematopoietic stem cells can compete for niches in the nonmyeloablated NSG bone marrow compartment and that the nonmyeloablated NSG bone marrow microenvironment is capable of supporting allogeneic long-term HSC engraftment and differentiation. …”

Effect of turbine motion on floating off shore wind turbine aerodynamics by Tignol, Bo Junior

“…Finally, future work should also further hone in on the inclusion of LES at different freestream wind and surge and pitch combinations to explore the potential formation of complex wake states, as well as the investigation of in-sync and out-of-sync joint pitch-and-surge cases to explore the occurrence of any nonlinear aerodynamic interactions.…”

A Slip Gap of the 2016 Mw 6.6 Muji, Xinjiang, China, Earthquake Inferred from Sentinel‐1 TOPS Interferometry by Feng, Wanpeng, Tian, Yunfeng, Zhang, Yong, Samsonov, Sergey, Almeida, Rafael, Liu, Peng

“…The inverted best‐fitting coseismic slip model in this study shows that the mainshock was a right‐lateral strike‐slip rupture on the western segment of the Muji fault, with an optimal dip angle of 80°±4°. Two separated slip zones exist in the coseismic slip model, with the maximum slip of 1.6 m located in the western slip zone. …”
