Metabolic disease rates have increased dramatically over the last four decades.Classic understanding of metabolic physiology has attributed these global trends to decreased physical activity and caloric excess; however, these traditional risk factors insufficiently explain the magnitude and rapidity of metabolic health deterioration.Recently, the n

The fraction of vegetation cover (FVC) is often estimated by unmixing a linear mixture model (LMM) Bookends to assess the horizontal spread of vegetation within a pixel based on a remotely sensed reflectance spectrum.The LMM-based algorithm produces results that can vary to a certain degree, depending on the model assumptions.For example, the robus

Container multimodal transport system was an important promoter of postwar globalization.But in the future, part of global manufacturing may change from centralized to distributed due to 3D printing.To evaluate its impact, this research established a system dynamics model of sneakers supply chain firstly.The modeling showed that the total demand of

The concept of thermal rectification was put forward decades ago.It is a phenomenon in which the heat flux along one direction varies as the sign of temperature gradient changes.In bulk materials, thermal rectification has been Tweezer realized at contact interfaces by manufacturing asymmetric effective contact areas, electron transport, temperatur

Serotonin 2C receptors (5HT2C) are involved in serotonin-driven dynamic equilibrium adjustments responsible for homeostatic stability in brain structures that modulate behavior and emotions.Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from the serotonin 2C receptor gene (HTR2C) have been associated with several neurological and mental disorders, includin
