The structure of pairwise competition drives sudden regime shifts in a microbe-plasmid model [0.03%]
成对竞争的结构驱动微生物-质粒模型中的突变制度转变
Ying-Jie Wang,Alberto Megías,Jose A Capitan et al.
Ying-Jie Wang et al.
Plasmids play a crucial role in bacterial communities by facilitating the horizontal transfer of genetic material, particularly genes that confer resistance to different stressor agents. In this work, we introduce a microbe-plasmid model to...
Artificial morphogenesis of curved surface structures inspired by differential growth in biology [0.03%]
受生物学中生长差异启发的曲面结构人工发生学研究
Kentaro Morikawa,Takumi Nakamura,Yoshihiko Matsumoto et al.
Kentaro Morikawa et al.
From the elegant petals of flowers to advanced aerospace designs, curved surfaces are fundamental to both natural and engineered systems, playing critical roles in structural and functional performance. In biology, these surfaces frequently...
Instability analysis of perturbed gait in dyads: holding a stick together provides effective assistance and is accompanied by information exchanges [0.03%]
双人步态干扰的稳定性分析:一起持棍可有效助稳并伴有信息交流
Sandrine Gayrard,Bruno Watier,Gilles Dusfour et al.
Sandrine Gayrard et al.
Physical interaction between two walking individuals, such as holding hands, is thought to influence gait stability, especially in response to unexpected perturbations. This study investigated how simple mechanical coupling (via a rigid sti...
Closed-loop control of the small intestinal transport within an integrated mechano-physiological framework [0.03%]
基于集成机电理框架的小肠转运的闭环控制
Hong Zhu,Meng Wai Woo,Xiao Dong Chen et al.
Hong Zhu et al.
The efficient transport of luminal contents in the small intestine is governed by a closed-loop control system linking sensory feedback (the sensor block), neural regulation (the controller block), muscular actuation (the actuator block) an...
Dynamical and time-series approach to understanding compartmental stock and flow models: a case study in malaria intervention models [0.03%]
基于动力学和时间序列理解仓室型存量流量模型的方法及其在疟疾干预模型中的应用研究
Eugene Tan,Mauricio van den Berg,Camilo Vargas et al.
Eugene Tan et al.
Insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) are one of the most cost-effective malaria control measures widely adopted today. The construction of mechanistic models to describe the structural distribution, ownership and attrition of ITNs is crucial to ...
Haemodynamic mechanism of dissipation of muscular energy in hovering hawkmoths (Sphingidae) [0.03%]
悬停的phinx科hawkmoth肌肉能量消散的血流动力学机制
Artis Brasovs,Alexandre V Palaoro,Peter H Adler et al.
Artis Brasovs et al.
The dynamics of blood flow and fuel delivery to the flight muscles of hovering hawkmoths are critical for evaluating energy budgets of these energy-demanding organs. The classic wing-flapping scenario ignores the blood contribution to muscl...
Development of a static optimization method for musculoskeletal modelling of kinematic-coupled lumbar spine and its application to alpine skiing [0.03%]
一种用于滑雪运动中相互耦合的腰椎模型静态优化方法的研究及应用
Nan Gao,Huitong Jin,Wenze Wu et al.
Nan Gao et al.
The accurate quantification of trunk muscle biomechanics during alpine skiing remains challenging, primarily owing to the inconsistent validation of core muscle activation patterns in existing musculoskeletal models under three-dimensional ...
Cooperation in public goods games over uniform random hypergraphs with game transitions [0.03%]
基于博弈转换的均匀超图上的合作行为研究
Nankun Wei,Xiaojin Xiong,Qin Li et al.
Nankun Wei et al.
The evolution of cooperation is a central enigma in evolutionary game theory. Traditionally, the combination of pairwise networks and repeated public goods games (PGGs) with a single state fails to adequately describe realistic group intera...
The form and function of a multi-functional weapon system in male and female burying beetles (Nicrophorus vespilloides) [0.03%]
雌雄拟步甲(Nicrophorus vespilloides)多功能武器系统的形态和功能研究
Jack Marcus Smith,Andrew M Catherall-Ostler,Frederik Püffel et al.
Jack Marcus Smith et al.
Animal weapon systems are used for attack and defence during competition for resources, including, though not confined to, competition for mates. They comprise the weapon itself and associated morphological structures-or 'weapon-supportive ...
Early-stage cancer results in a multiplicative increase in cell-free DNA originating from healthy tissue [0.03%]
早期癌症会导致源自健康组织的游离DNA呈乘积增加
