Vascular endothelial cells (ECs) are continuously exposed to blood flow that contributes to the maintenance of vessel structure and function; however, the effect of hemodynamic forces on transforming ...

Rationale: Hyperhomocysteinemia contributes to vascular dysfunction and risks of cardiovascular diseases. Stromal cell–derived factor (SDF)-1, a chemokine expressed by endothelial cells (ECs), is ...

Abstract: Airborne weather radar is an important means of detecting low-altitude wind shear for modern civil aviation airliners. The accuracy of wind speed estimation is the key factor affecting the ...

SAE Transactions, Vol. 115, Section 5: JOURNAL OF MATERIALS AND MANUFACTURING (2006), pp. 517-524 (8 pages) The analytic solution of the mode I stress intensity factor for spot welds in lap-shear ...

When thunderstorms are on the horizon, meteorologists are tuned in to one critical component: wind shear. This atmospheric phenomenon plays a vital role in determining the intensity and longevity of ...
