On the investigation of ash deposition effect on flow-induced vibration energy harvesting by Wang, Junlei, Gu, Shanghao, Yurchenko, Daniil, Hu, Guobiao, Wei, Ronghan

“…The CFD analysis results indicate that the appearance of the small-scale secondary vortices (SV) widens the wake flow and increases the aerodynamic force produced by the horn-like bluff body. The flow-induced vibration of the harvester using the horn-like bluff body transforms from VIV to galloping. …”

Cohort differences in physical health and disability in the United States and Europe by Gimeno, L, Goisis, A, Dowd, JB, Ploubidis, GB

“…Still, in both the United States and Europe, we observed a structural break in disability trends, with declines observed in prewar cohorts slowing, stalling, or reversing for cohorts born since 1945. <p><strong> Discussion</strong></p> In all regions, we found evidence for worsening health across cohorts, particularly for those born since 1945. …”

Impact of alginate encapsulation on myeloid leukemia cells. by Kyaw Htay.

“…Leukemia is a type of blood cancer characterized by a neoplastic proliferative expansion of hematopoietic stem cells, which grow in the bone marrow. Current leukemia studies using 2D culture flasks and in vivo animal models have not explained clearly yet how the interactions of cellular components in the bone marrow and their niches promote the growth of leukemic stem cells and thwart the chemotherapy. …”

Tabula rasa: model transfer for object category detection by Aytar, Y, Zisserman, A

“…Experiments (on PASCAL VOC) demonstrate significant performance gains by transfer learning from one class to another (e.g. motorbike to bicycle), including one-shot learning, specialization from class to a subordinate class (e.g. from quadruped to horse) and transfer using multiple components. In the case of multiple training samples it is shown that a detection performance approaching that of the state of the art can be achieved with substantially fewer training samples.…”
