Vibration Excitation and Control of a Pedestrian Walkway by Individuals and Crowds by James Mark William Brownjohn, Tao Neng Fu

“…The potentially mitigating effect of stationary occupants is still not well understood and the study included direct measurement of damping forces and absorbed energy using a force plate. The various tests showed that energy dissipation measured directly was consistent with the observed change in damping, that vertical and lateral response both varied approximately with square root of number of pedestrians, and that the simple model of a human as a single mass-spring-damper system may need to be refined to fit observed changes in modal parameters with a crowd of humans present. …”

The Effect of “Carvacrol” on Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in the Skeletal Muscles of Rats by Barış Mardin, Abdullah Özer, Başak Koçak, Ayşegül Küçük, Mustafa Hakan Zor, Şaban Cem Sezen, Mustafa Kavutçu, Mustafa Arslan, Gürsel Levent Oktar

“…In surgical procedures characterized by frequent occurrences of ischemia-reperfusion (I/R), such as transplant and cardiovascular surgery, it is crucial to prioritize the preservation of tissue integrity and mitigation of associated damage. In this study, we formulated a hypothesis suggesting that carvacrol (Car), an aromatic hydrocarbon present in some plant species, might decrease I/R injury by implication of its antioxidant, anti-apoptotic, and anti-inflammatory functions. …”
