Cold dwell fatigue has become one critical issue in titanium industry over the past decades.Though some reports have emphasized the importance of time-dependent plastic strain on cold dwell effect in titanium alloys, the mathematical relationship between plastic strain and fatigue life has never been discussed because plastic strain changes continu
Cretaceous origin of dogwoods: an anatomically preserved Cornus (Cornaceae) fruit from the Campanian of Vancouver Island
Background Cornaceae consists of 58 species, all within the genus Cornus.The Cenozoic record of Cornus is extensive and well documented.Molecular divergence-time studies CINNAMAX suggest that crown-group Cornus may have originated by the Late Cretaceous.However, there has been no formal report of Cornus from Cretaceous deposits.Here, we characteriz
Health Care Providers’ Performance, Mindset, and Attitudes Toward a Neonatal Resuscitation Computer-Based Simulator: Empirical Study
BackgroundNeonatal resuscitation involves a complex sequence of actions to establish an infant’s cardiorespiratory function at birth.Many of these responses, which identify the best action sequence in each situation, are taught as part of the recurrent Neonatal Resuscitation Program training, but they have a low incidence in practice, which leave
Control of Helminth Infections in Captive Herbivores: An Overview of Experience
There are numerous challenges associated with helminth control in captive animals.The aim of the present paper is to provide an overview of the research on deworming of captive herbivorous mammals, the associated problems and the solutions sought, in order to derive recommendations for practice in the relevant institutions.The research was conducte
Development and Degeneration of the Intervertebral Disc—Insights from Across Species
Back pain caused by intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration has a major socio-economic impact in humans, yet historically has received minimal attention in species other than humans, Treatments mice and dogs.However, a general growing interest in this unique organ prompted the expansion of IVD research in rats, rabbits, cats, horses, monkeys, and co
