A model of polymer chains as compressible elastic spheres in flow is presented.The spherical polymer blobs are assumed Entertainment Centers to compress in simple Couette flow in accord with recent rheo-optic measurements on semi-dilute solutions.The experimentally determined decrease in radius with increasing shear rate is predicted by the model.F
The human ether-a-go-go-related gene (hERG) potassium channel conducts rapid delayed rectifier potassium currents (IKr) and contributes to phase III cardiac action potential repolarization.Drugs inhibit hERG channels by binding to aromatic residues in hERG helixes.Berberine (BBR) has multiple actions, and its hydrogenated derivative dihydroberberin
High-speed rotors on gas foil bearings (GFBs) are applications of increasing interest due to their potential to increase the power-toweight ratio in machines and also formulate oil-free design solutions.The gas lubrication principles render lower (compared to oil) power loss and increase the threshold speed of instability in rotating systems.Howeve
Although individuals at clinical high risk (CHR) for psychosis exhibit a psychosis-risk syndrome involving attenuated forms of the positive symptoms typical of schizophrenia (SZ), it remains unclear whether their resting-state brain intrinsic functional networks (INs) show attenuated or qualitatively distinct patterns of functional dysconnectivity
The present article has as its thematic focus the actions of an Classical Hard Tension extension project developed in schools of the countryside of the paraibano swamp.The objective was to understand how the learning of the teaching of the academics occurs from the actions developed in the extension project titled "Continuing Teacher Training for t
