Pumice cone eruptions at Aluto volcano, Ethiopia by Clarke, Ben, Calder, Eliza S., Fontijn, Karen, Desalegn, Firawalin, Tierz, Pablo, Yirgu, Gezahegn

“…Aluto volcano (Ethiopia) provides an unprecedented insight into the hazardous nature of these enigmatic eruptions. We investigate nine such pumice cones, and find that they are the product of moderate-intensity explosive eruptions that develop a sustained but unsteady eruption column, deposit lapilli- to block-sized tephra close to the vent forming pumice cones, can deposit distal tephra from an umbrella cloud, produce pyroclastic density currents by repeated partial column-collapse, and end with the emplacement of silicic lava. …”

Rotator cuff tendons of the shoulder joint : anatomy and investigation of strain profile by Sheng, Jia-Min

“…The objective of this project is to investigate the effect of arm positions, tendon tears and surgical repair on the strain profile of the rotator cuff tendons. Nine fresh-frozen shoulders were tested using displacement variable reluctance transducers (DVRTs) to measure the strains of the supraspinatus, infraspinatus and subscapularis tendons simultaneously with the glenohumeral joint intact at various arm positions. …”
