The ability of a cell to regulate its mechanical properties is central to its function. Emerging evidence suggests that interactions between the cell nucleus and cytoskeleton influence cell mechanics through poorly understood mechanisms. Here we conduct quantitative confocal imaging to show that loss of A-type lamins tends to increase nuclear...
Attitude control in quadrotor Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) systems is traditionally managed by optimal control loops tuned to minimize errors in performance. While robust, these loops perform sub-optimally in dynamic and unpredictable environments which inspire new interest in sophisticated solution and approaches such as reinforcement learning (RL) approaches which should...
"Abstract
Purpose: Research establishes the critical need to address the underrepresentation of women and racial/ethnic minorities in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). While emergent research addresses similar challenges for sexual and gender minorities (SGM), this research remains scant and focuses on adult experiences. This analysis examines subgroup differences and... and ARCH Deposit Description:

Pediatric participants performed a series of trials that involved stepping up onto a raised platform. Body weight load was modulated during this task from -20% to +15% in 5% increments (excluding -5%). Outcome measures include peak hip abduction moments, peak support moments, and individual hip, knee, and ankle percent contributions...
Geogenic fluoride contaminates the water of tens of millions of people. However, many are unaware of the fluoride content due in part to shortcomings of detection methods. Biosensor tests are a relatively new approach to water quality testing that address many of these shortcomings but have never been tested by...
This data set was curated as part of an exercise for the LSSTC Data Science Fellowship Program (DSFP).
Some of the data are sourced from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS; sdss.org).
This collection of csv files contains information from the internet movie database (IMDb; imdb.com), which can be packaged into a database for example problems. The files have been put together in support of exercises for the LSSTC DSFP.
The data were collected from the website: https://relational.fit.cvut.cz/dataset/IMDb
Included in this submission are the following supplementary materials that were unable to be included in the article, but the authors would like to make available for other researchers:
● Raw data csv files and R analysis code
● Supplemental graphs
● Full bibliography
● Sources of Materials document
●... and Below is the abstract for the forthcoming Book and Paper Group Annual article at the time of this submission.
Rigid polysaccharide gels are a vital area of research for library and paper conservation, as they are still a relatively new material in the field. This experiment investigates anecdotal concerns of...
Learning to discriminate between different sensory stimuli is essential for survival. In rodents, the olfactory bulb, which contributes to odor discrimination via pattern separation, exhibits extensive structural synaptic plasticity involving the formation and removal of synaptic spines, even in adult animals. The network connectivity resulting from this plasticity is...
Gene expression is a regulated process that is driven by ATP consumption. Therefore, regulation must be coupled to constraints imposed by the level of energy metabolism. Here, we explore this relationship both theoretically and experimentally. A mathematical model predicts that activators of gene expression have variable impact depending on metabolic...
Cell state transitions are often triggered by large changes in the
concentrations of transcription factors and therefore large differences
in their stoichiometric ratios. Whether cells can elicit transitions using
modest changes in the ratios of co-expressed factors is unclear. Here,
we investigate how cells in the Drosophila eye resolve state...
# Brazil bus transportation data and US domestic air transportation network data:
---
Temporal network transportation data with monthly resolution.
The Brazilian inter-cities bus data was collected from the Brazilian National Land Transportation Agency ([ANTT]( https://antt.gov.br.)). The dataset contains all inter-cities bus transportation from January 2005 to December 2014 with monthly...
A noncomprehensive list of large urban fires in the 1850s United States. All fires were large enough to destroy 20 structures or do $200,000 in damage (in 1850s dollars). Some fires are included on the basis of verbal descriptions (e.g., "downtown destroyed") that suggest that the fires were of this...

Abstract:
In this study we will show a new method of polishing for Nb3Sn cavities known as centrifugal barrel polishing (CBP). Using this method, Nb3Sn coated samples are polished to a surface roughness comparable to a traditional Nb cavity after electropolishing (EP). We also investigate different...
