Lattice Boltzmann Solution of Concave Longitudinal Fins under Step-changing base Boundary Conditions Associated with Accumulated Nonlinearity by Abhishek Sahu, Shubhankar Bhowmick

“…Additionally, earlier reported studies of a fin merely address the linear and power law temperature-dependent variation of thermal parameters. Herein, the thermal parameters of fin namely volumetric heat generation and thermal conductivity are treated to be a second-order polynomial function of temperature to address the nonlinear material properties. …”

Community- and trophic-level responses of soil nematodes to removal of a non-native tree at different stages of invasion. by Guadalupe Peralta, Ian A Dickie, Gregor W Yeates, Duane A Peltzer

“…Moreover, the effects of invader removal at different stages of the invasion process is rarely evaluated, despite a growing recognition that invader impacts are density or stage-dependent. Therefore, the effectiveness of invasive species management for restoring community structure and function across trophic levels remains poorly understood. …”

Auditory evoked-potential abnormalities in a mouse model of 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome and their interactions with hearing impairment by Chen Lu, Jennifer F. Linden

“…Here we used the Df1/+ mouse model of the 22q11.2 deletion to investigate how hearing impairment might interact with increased genetic vulnerability to psychiatric disease to affect brain function. We measured brain function using cortical auditory evoked potentials (AEPs), which are commonly measured non-invasively in humans. …”
