Age-related bone loss is associated with FGF21 but not IGFBP1 in healthy adults by Lee, Shuen Yee, Fam, Kai Deng, Chia, Kar Ling, Yap, Margaret M. C., Goh, Jorming, Yeo, Kwee Poo, Yap, Eric Peng Huat, Chotirmall, Sanjay Haresh, Lim, Chin Leong

“…The IGFBP1 concentration was not correlated with BMD at the hip or spine (all P > 0.05). In humans, FGF21 might be involved in the age-associated decline in BMD, especially at the spine, through increased bone turnover. …”

考虑抗弯刚度不确定性的简支梁桥损伤定位方法 = Damage localization method for simply supported bridge with flexural stiffness uncertainty considered by 王艺霖 Wang, Yi-lin, 张鑫 Zhang, Xin, 安新梅 An, Xin-mei

“…In order to deal with flexural stiffness uncertainty of main girder and then localize the damage of main girder for simply supported bridges accurately, a damage localization index based on the idea of second order difference of displacement influence line－difference index of influence line for mid-span displacement (DIILMSD), was presented by employing influence line analysis. …”

Vortical patterns behind a tapered cylinder oscillating transversely by Techet, A. H., Hover, F. S., Triantafyllou, M.S.

“…It is shown that within the lock-in region and above a threshold amplitude, no cells form and, instead, a single frequency of response dominates the entire span. Within certain frequency ranges a single mode dominates in the wake, consisting of shedding along the entire span of either two vortices per cycle (`2S' mode), or four vortices per cycle (`2P' mode); but within specific parametric ranges a hybrid mode is observed, consisting of a `2S' pattern along the part of the span with the larger diameter and a `2P' pattern along the part of the span with the smaller diameter. …”
