The Effects of Lutein and Zeaxanthin Supplementation on Brain Morphology in Older Adults: A Randomized, Controlled Trial by Catherine M. Mewborn, Cutter A. Lindbergh, B. Randy Hammond, Lisa M. Renzi-Hammond, L. Stephen Miller

“…Structural brain outcomes, focusing on global and frontal-temporal lobe regions, were acquired using both T1-weighted and DTI MRI sequences. We hypothesized that the supplement group would increase, maintain, or show attenuated loss in hypothesized regions-of-interest (ROIs) while the placebo group would show age-related declines in brain structural integrity over the course of the trial. …”

Investigating the effect of localized heat treatment and bioinspired structure on the crashworthiness of bumper subsystem by Israel Endale Asres, Ermias Gebrekidan Koricho, Ephrem Zeleke Kassa

“…A baseline Peugeot 3008 model was used to test 26 different models for the crash box, taking into account variables such as heat treatment thickness and sequence of soft and hard pitch variation. The CB_22 model, which has constant soft and hard pitch, performed better. 10 alternative models which are mimicked from the false banana stem were considered for the bumper beam. …”
