Analysis and Verification on the Equivalence Between Jerk-Level and Acceleration-Level Schemes Applied to Manipulators Controlling

Two different-level schemes are researched in this article for achieving the kinematic Tilt Trucks control of redundant manipulators, one of which is exploited at the acceleration level, and the other is at the jerk level.Firstly, they are both reconstructed as a standard quadratic programming problem with different parameter definitions and addres

ST-2191, an Anellated Bismorpholino Derivative of Oxy-Fingolimod, Shows Selective S1P1 Agonist and Functional Antagonist Potency In Vitro and In Vivo

Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) is an extensively studied signaling molecule that contributes to cell proliferation, survival, migration and other functions through binding to specific S1P receptors.The cycle of S1P1 internalization upon S1P binding and recycling to the cell surface when local S1P concentrations are low drives Shorts T cell trafficki

Do social inequalities in health widen or converge with age? Longitudinal evidence from three cohorts in the West of Scotland

Abstract Background Existing studies are divided as to whether social inequalities in health widen or converge as people age.In part this is due to reliance on cross-sectional data, but also among longitudinal studies to differences in the measurement of both socioeconomic status (SES) and health and in the treatment of survival effects.The aim of

The strength and timing of the mitochondrial bottleneck in salmon suggests a conserved mechanism in vertebrates.

In most species mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is inherited maternally in an apparently clonal fashion, although how this is achieved remains uncertain.Population genetic studies show not only that individuals can harbor more than one type of mtDNA (heteroplasmy) but that heteroplasmy is common and widespread across a diversity of taxa.Females harboring
