The method for quantifying building-specific functional recovery is based on the performance-based earthquake engineering framework. To quantify building function, the method maps component-level ...

Due to its abstract and counterintuitive nature, quantum mechanics is considered as one of the most challenging subjects in science and technology. This study outlines a general workflow for the ...

The hippocampus is essential for learning and memory. Over the last decades, predictions have been developed for how the CA3 module could execute such processes. However, at the synaptic level, ...

Even though human experience unfolds continuously in time, it is not strictly linear; instead, it entails cascading processes building hierarchical cognitive structures. For instance, during speech ...

Photoplethysmography is a non-invasive technique used for measuring several vital signs and for the identification of individuals with an increased disease risk. Its principle of work is based on ...

GEOMLib is a 2D and 3D geometry library for MATLAB® and GNU Octave allowing mesh based CSG (Composite Solid Geometry) operations. Originally developed for use with the FEATool Multiphysics FEA ...

We hypothesized that patients with neuropathic POTS will have impaired vagal and sympathetic cardiovascular control. Because there are no standardized criteria to identify neuropathic POTS, we studied ...

Neuromelanin-sensitive MRI (NM-MRI) purports to detect the content of neuromelanin (NM), a product of dopamine metabolism that accumulates in the substantia nigra (SN). Prior work has shown that ...

Protein function arises from a poorly understood pattern of energetic interactions between amino acid residues. Sequence-based strategies for deducing this pattern have been proposed, but lack of ...
