Increasing urbanization makes it more and more important to have accurate stormwater runoff predictions, especially with potentially severe weather and climatic changes on Circular rugs the horizon.Such stormwater predictions in turn require reliable rainfall information.Especially for urban centres, the problem is that the spatial and temporal res
The oil and gas industry has been an integral and fundamental sector of the Russian economy for the past few years.The main problems of this industry have traditionally been the deteriorating structure of oil reserves; depreciation of main assets; slowdown and decline in oil production.Recently these have been complicated by a number of new negativ
Mechanical perturbations increase intracellular Ca2+ in cells, but the coupling of mechanical forces to the Ca2+ influx is not well understood.We used a microfluidic chamber driven with a high-speed pressure servo to generate defined fluid shear stress to cultured astrocytes, and simultaneously measured cytoskeletal forces using a force sensitive a
