Vagal nerve stimulation dynamically alters anxiety-like behavior in rats by A.G. Butler, J.K. Bassi, A.A. Connelly, M.R. Melo, A.M. Allen, S.J. McDougall

“…Background: Electrical vagal nerve stimulation (VNS), at currents designed to target sensory, interoceptive neurons, decreases anxiety-like behavior. Objective/Hypothesis: We hypothesized that different VNS current intensities would differentially alter anxiety-like behavior through the activation of distinct brainstem circuits. …”

EFFECT OF RANDOM FIBER DISTRIBUTION ON LONGITUDINAL COMPRESSIVE BEHAVIOR OF COMPOSITE MATERIALS by ZHANG Li, XU Dong, ZHANG ShuFeng, JIANG YuanXiang

“…Random fiber distribution may lead to randomness of longitudinal compressive behavior of fiber reinforced plastics（FRP）.To mimic random fiber distribution over the cross-section,a new algorithm named Latin Hypercube Sampling based on Random Sequential Expansion（LHS-RSE） is proposed,which can simulate the random fiber distribution of FRP with fiber volume ratio as high as 70%.Then,3 D FE model with random fiber distribution of unidirectional fiber reinforced plastic T300/914 is developed in Abaqus/Standard to investigate the influence of random fiber distribution on the compressive behavior.It is shown that random fiber distribution over cross section greatly compromises the longitudinal compressive strength of FRP.Random distribution of longitudinal compressive strength resulted by random fiber distribution tends to follow normal or lognormal distribution.…”

Information Processing Features Can Detect Behavioral Regimes of Dynamical Systems by Rick Quax, Gregor Chliamovitch, Alexandre Dupuis, Jean-Luc Falcone, Bastien Chopard, Alfons G. Hoekstra, Peter M. A. Sloot

“…We apply it to the 256 elementary cellular automata (ECA), which are the simplest possible dynamical systems exhibiting behaviors ranging from simple to complex. Our main finding is that only a few information features are needed for full predictability of the systemic behavior and that the “information synergy” feature is always most predictive. …”
