Enhanced strength and reduced elastic modulus of biomedical metastable β Ti–Nb alloy via intermediate phase transformation by Meng Qiang, Xi-rong Yang, Geng-jie Wang, Xiao-yan Liu, Lei Luo, Qun Ren, Jing-zhong Wang

“…The lattice defects and high distortion induced by the deformation can provide nucleation sites and drive the precipitation during aging, as well as hinder the dissolution of the low-modulus stress-induced martensitic (SIM) α′′ phase introduced during the deformation, which results in the formation of fine and dispersed nanosized intermediate phases (α + ω + α′′) after short-term aging. …”

Evidence of Presynaptic Localization and Function of the c-Jun N-Terminal Kinase by Silvia Biggi, Lucia Buccarello, Alessandra Sclip, Pellegrino Lippiello, Noemi Tonna, Cristiano Rumio, Daniele Di Marino, Maria Concetta Miniaci, Tiziana Borsello

“…Here we examined whether JNK is present at the presynaptic site and its activity after presynaptic NMDA receptors stimulation. By using N-SIM Structured Super Resolution Microscopy as well as biochemical approaches, we demonstrated that presynaptic fractions contained significant amount of JNK protein and its activated form. …”

ViT-DualAtt: An efficient pornographic image classification method based on Vision Transformer with dual attention by Zengyu Cai, Liusen Xu, Jianwei Zhang, Yuan Feng, Liang Zhu, Fangmei Liu

“…Our results demonstrated that ViT-DualAtt achieved a classification accuracy of 97.2% ± 0.1% in pornographic image classification tasks, outperforming the current state-of-the-art model (RepVGG-SimAM) by 2.7%. Furthermore, the model achieves a pornographic image miss rate of only 1.6%, significantly reducing the risk of pornographic image dissemination on internet platforms.…”

Modelling the growth stress in tree branches: eccentric growth vs. reaction wood by Van Rooij, Arnoul, Badel, Eric, Barczi, Jean-François, Caraglio, Yves, Almeras, Tancrede, Gril, Joseph

“…For illustration, this model was applied to branches of two 50-year-old trees, one softwood Pinus pinaster, and one hardwood Prunus avium (wild cherry tree), both simulated with the AmapSim discrete element software. For the wild cherry tree, the computed outputs highlighted that the eccentricity of radial growth seems to be as efficient as the formation of reaction wood to maintain postural control despite the increasing gravity. …”
