DESIGN AND CHARACTERIZATION OF MICROSCALE AUXETIC AND ANISOTROPIC STRUCTURES FABRICATED BY MULTIPHOTON LITHOGRAPHY

Design and Characterization of Microscale Auxetic and Anisotropic Structures Fabricated by Multiphoton Lithography

The need for control of the elastic gibson sg fireburst properties of architected materials has been accentuated due to the advances in modelling and characterization.Among the plethora of unconventional mechanical responses, controlled anisotropy and auxeticity have been promulgated as a new avenue in bioengineering applications.This paper aims to

Vortex formation and dynamics of defects in active nematic shells

We present a hydrodynamic model for a thin spherical shell of active nematic liquid crystal with an arbitrary configuration of defects.The active flows generated by defects in the director lead to the formation of stable vortices, analogous to those seen in confined systems in flat geometries, which generate effective dynamics for four +1/2 defects

A longitudinal follow-up of posttraumatic stress: from 9 months to 20 years after a major road traffic accident

Abstract Background Although road traffic accidents (RTA) are a major cause of injury and a cause of posttraumatic stress (PTS) in the aftermath, ezall fly spray little is known about the long-term psychological effects of RTA.Methods This prospective longitudinal study assessed long-term PTS, grief, and general mental health after a bus carrying 2
