Finite bandwidth, long wavelength convection with boundary imperfectons: near-resonant wavelength excitation by D. N. Riahi

“…It is found that, under certain conditions on the form of the boundary imperfections, the preferred horizontal structure of the solutions is of the same spatial form as that of the total or some subset of the imperfection shape function. It is composed of a multi-modal pattern with spatial variations over the fast variables and with non-modal amplitudes, which vary over the slow variables. …”

Three distinct gamma oscillatory networks within cortical columns in macaque monkeys’ area V1 by Eric Drebitz, Lukas-Paul Rausch, Esperanza Domingo Gil, Andreas K. Kreiter

“…Other features, like the different patterns of input and output connections of neurons located in separate layers and systematic differences in feature tuning, hint at a more segregated and possibly flexible functional organization of neurons within a column.MethodsTo distinguish between these views of columnar processing, we conducted laminar recordings in macaques’ area V1 while they performed a demanding attention task. …”

Unilateral chewing of foods. Analysis of energy balance and peak power of the mandibular elevator muscles by Przemysław Stróżyk, Jacek Bałchanowski

“…Since the act of chewing is a very complex issue in the biomechanics of the masticatory system, the research and analysis of the obtained results were therefore limited to the first cycle.Methods: Determination of the peak energy and power of the muscles required: (1) preparation of food patterns, in the form of the function F = f(Δh) (force (F) vs displacement (Δh)), based on experimental studies and (2) conducting numerical simulations using a 3D kinematic-dynamic model of the human masticatory system. …”

Spatiotemporal comparison of fatty acid profiles of four gastropod species in aquatic fields in Korea by Dongwoo Yang, Sangkyu Park

“…Thus, the fatty acid composition of consumers reflects that of their diets. To determine the patterns of fatty acid accumulation in gastropods in coexisting aquatic habitats, we conducted a spatiotemporal study on the fatty acid composition of four freshwater gastropods associated to humans collected from reservoirs, rivers, and rice paddy fields in Korea. …”
