A One-Dimensional Model For Neuronal Growth

A mathematical model for neuronal growth is presented, describing the process of axonal elongation. The main construction material is a protein called tubulin, which is produced in the soma (core body of the cell), and transported inside the axon to a structure known as the growth cone on its tip, where the construction process occurs. The concentration of tubulin is modelled by a convection-diffu

From Meaning to Breathing: Rationalization, Translation, Embodiment, and Cultural Meaning: Four Method Assemblages, Four Realities of Prechoreographed Group Exercise Instructing

Group exercise-to-music classes have long been a popular keep-fit activity and long criticized for their so-called alienating and objectifying aspects. Today there is an ongoing trend from the “freestyle” type where instructors chose their own music and moves, to the “prechoreographed” type produced by corporations like Les Mills International (LMI). LMI prepares standardized, class-in-a-box music

Comparison of Sprinkler Activation in Flat and Sloping Ceilings using FDS 6

The purpose of this report is to investigate the implications of installing sprinkler systems in ceilings with a ceiling slope exceeding the maximum permitted by NFPA 13, being 9.5 ° or 18.44 ° depending on the type of sprinkler system. The objective of the report is to present a comparison and analysis of sprinkler activation times and patterns for sprinkler systems installed in ceilings with dif

Fluid and Thermodynamic Underhood Simulations

The thermal model and simulation of vehicles components is necessary within the development phase of the vehicle production process. It is important to understand the thermal processes of high temperature components in the vehicle, such as the exhaust system. The exhaust system presents a high thermal activity that increases the temperature of the exhaust system itself and the nearby surrounding e

The effects of shading and surrounding landscape composition on arthropod pest abundance in Coffea arabica plantations

Kan skuggträd och landskapsdesign minska insektsangrepp på kaffe? Kaffe är en av de viktigaste handelsvarorna i världen, uppskattningsvis dricker 500 miljoner människor över hela världen denna mytomspunna dryck. Svenskarna konsumerar massvis med kaffe, i medeltal hela 161 liter/person/år, vilket skulle räcka till att fylla ett badkar. Över 20 miljoner familjer i över 50 länder är beroende av kaff

Low nuclear genetic variation in a globally widespread avian malaria parasite Plasmodium relictum

Abstract Plasmodium relictum is a generalist avian malaria parasite found to infect approximately 400 species of bird on every continent except Antarctica. The two P. relictum isolates studied, SGS1 and GRW4, have been found in 55 species of passeriform bird. A parasite with a broad geographic range combined with lack of vector- and host-specificity is likely to contain multiple genetic variants.
