The directional sensitivity of the acoustic radiation force to particle diameter.

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America

Ran W, Saylor JR.
PMID: 26093419
J Acoust Soc Am. 2015 Jun;137(6):3288-98. doi: 10.1121/1.4921296.

When viscous corrections to the inviscid acoustic radiation force theory are implemented and applied to a standing wave field, the direction of the acoustic radiation force on particles varies from theory to theory. Specifically, some theories predict that the...

CONSTRUCTION OF SCALAR AND VECTOR FINITE ELEMENT FAMILIES ON POLYGONAL AND POLYHEDRAL MESHES.

Journal of computational methods in applied mathematics

Gillette A, Rand A, Bajaj C.
PMID: 28077939
J Comput Methods Appl Math. 2016 Oct;16(4):667-683. doi: 10.1515/cmam-2016-0019. Epub 2016 May 18.

We combine theoretical results from polytope domain meshing, generalized barycentric coordinates, and finite element exterior calculus to construct scalar- and vector-valued basis functions for conforming finite element methods on generic convex polytope meshes in dimensions 2 and 3. Our...

Carbon incorporated into diatom frustule walls is protected from degradation enabling analysis for carbon isotope composition (δ

Oxygen-rich hierarchical porous carbon derived from artemia cyst shells with superior electrochemical performance.

ACS applied materials & interfaces

Zhao Y, Ran W, He J, Song Y, Zhang C, Xiong DB, Gao F, Wu J, Xia Y.
PMID: 25531022
ACS Appl Mater Interfaces. 2015 Jan 21;7(2):1132-9. doi: 10.1021/am506815f. Epub 2015 Jan 06.

In this study, three-dimensional (3D) hierarchical porous carbon with abundant functional groups is produced through a very simple low-cost carbonization of Artemia cyst shells. The unique hierarchical porous structure of this material, combining large numbers of micropores and macropores,...

The Pseudomonas aeruginosa Mannose Sensitive Hamemagglutination Strain (PA-MSHA) Induces a Th1-Polarizing Phenotype by Promoting Human Dendritic Cells Maturation.

Indian journal of microbiology

Zhang Y, Wang H, Li Y, Chen K, Ye J, Liao X, Chen Y, Ran W.
PMID: 25320417
Indian J Microbiol. 2014 Jun;54(2):163-9. doi: 10.1007/s12088-013-0436-6. Epub 2013 Oct 29.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa mannose sensitive hamemagglutination strain (PA-MSHA) is a kind of peritrichous P. aeruginosa strain with MSHA fimbriae and has been shown to activate kinds of immunocytes. Dendritic cells (DCs) are specialized antigen-presenting cells required for the stimulating and...

Martial Art Training and Cognitive Performance in Middle-Aged Adults.

Journal of human kinetics

Douris P, Douris C, Balder N, LaCasse M, Rand A, Tarapore F, Zhuchkan A, Handrakis J.
PMID: 26672872
J Hum Kinet. 2015 Oct 14;47:277-83. doi: 10.1515/hukin-2015-0083. eCollection 2015 Sep 29.

Cognitive performance includes the processes of attention, memory, processing speed, and executive functioning, which typically declines with aging. Previous research has demonstrated that aerobic and resistance exercise improves cognitive performance immediately following exercise. However, there is limited research examining...

Intraspecific variability modulates interspecific variability in animal organismal stoichiometry.

Ecology and evolution

El-Sabaawi RW, Travis J, Zandonà E, McIntyre PB, Reznick DN, Flecker A.
PMID: 24967071
Ecol Evol. 2014 May;4(9):1505-15. doi: 10.1002/ece3.981. Epub 2014 Mar 26.

Interspecific differences in organismal stoichiometry (OS) have been documented in a wide range of animal taxa and are of significant interest for understanding evolutionary patterns in OS. In contrast, intraspecific variation in animal OS has generally been treated as...

Stoichiometric traits of stickleback: Effects of genetic background, rearing environment, and ontogeny.

Ecology and evolution

Leal MC, Best RJ, Durston D, El-Sabaawi RW, Matthews B.
PMID: 28428852
Ecol Evol. 2017 Mar 18;7(8):2617-2625. doi: 10.1002/ece3.2802. eCollection 2017 Apr.

Phenotypes can both evolve in response to, and affect, ecosystem change, but few examples of diverging ecosystem-effect traits have been investigated. Bony armor traits of fish are good candidates for this because they evolve rapidly in some freshwater fish...

Segal's Law, 16S rRNA gene sequencing, and the perils of foodborne pathogen detection within the American Gut Project.

PeerJ

Pettengill JB, Rand H.
PMID: 28652935
PeerJ. 2017 Jun 22;5:e3480. doi: 10.7717/peerj.3480. eCollection 2017.

Obtaining human population level estimates of the prevalence of foodborne pathogens is critical for understanding outbreaks and ameliorating such threats to public health. Estimates are difficult to obtain due to logistic and financial constraints, but citizen science initiatives like...

Stress and its predictors in pregnant women: a study in Saudi Arabia.
