Age differences in the variability and distribution of sleep spindle and rapid eye movement densities. by Kevin R Peters, Laura B Ray, Stuart Fogel, Valerie Smith, Carlyle T Smith

“…Although age differences were observed in the degree of absolute variability (older adults had significantly larger variances than young adults for sleep efficiency and time spent awake after sleep onset), a similar pattern was also observed within the two age groups: the four sleep measures with the lowest degrees of relative variability were the same and included time spent in REM and Stage 2 sleep, total sleep time, and sleep efficiency. …”

RESEARCH CONCAVE CIRCULAR HOLE TEMPLATE LINEAR VARIABLE THICKNESS STIFFNESS AND STRENGTH THEORIES by LI ShaoJie

“…This paper studies linear variable thickness circular aperture concave template theory of stiffness and strength calculation.First,set up mechanical model:Template for circular concave,outside the perimeter fixed; center has a round hole,inside the perimeter free,outside under uniformly distributed vertical load.Secondly,the establishment of mathematical model:Derivation of concave template in the axisymmetric condition,ordinary differential equation with variable coefficients of elastic curved surface,and gives the mathematical expressions of boundary conditions.Again,in view of the differential equation boundary value problem,the displacement method and the Matlab algorithm,it is concluded that the deflection of concave template function,and establish the stiffness calculation condition of concave template.Then,determine the concave template on the bending moment and the maximum bending moment and stress,so as to establish a concave template strength calculation conditions.Finally,numerical examples.This paper presents the function solutions,to change law of control concave template section variable parameters.In this way,not only highlight the interdependent relationship between the quantity of each,and optimization,and discussion and application.The result is suitable for uniform,continuous,isotropic material artifacts.Because in the process of calculation and data processing with error,so the formula is similar.…”
