1. The Arpu Kuilpu meteorite: In-depth characterization of an H5 chondrite delivered from a Jupiter Family Comet orbit 

   Anderson, Seamus L.; Benedix, Gretchen K.; Godel, Belinda; et al. (2024)

   Meteoritics & Planetary Science

   Over the Nullarbor Plain in South Australia, the Desert Fireball Network detected a fireball on the night of June 1, 2019 (7:30 pm local time), and 6 weeks later recovered a single meteorite (42 g) named Arpu Kuilpu. This meteorite was then distributed to a consortium of collaborating institutions to be measured and analyzed by a number of methodologies including SEM-EDS, EPMA, ICP-MS, gamma-ray spectrometry, ideal gas pycnometry, magnetic ...

2. How accurately do finite element models predict the fall impact response of ex vivo specimens augmented by prophylactic intramedullary nailing? 

   Bliven, Emily K.; Fung, Anita; Baker, Alexander; et al. (2024)

   Journal of Orthopaedic Research

   Hip fracture prevention approaches like prophylactic augmentation devices have been proposed to strengthen the femur and prevent hip fracture in a fall scenario. The aim of this study was to validate the finite element model (FEM) of specimens augmented by prophylactic intramedullary nailing in a simulated sideways fall impact against ex vivo experimental data. A dynamic inertia-driven sideways fall simulator was used to test six cadaveric ...

3. Custom integration of a magnetic-field monitoring system into a 32-channel MRI head coil 

   Schmidt, Tim; Lee, Yoojin; Nagy, Zoltan (2024)

   Magnetic Resonance in Medicine

   Purpose Customizing a Siemens 32-channel coil for use in a Philips 3T MRI system with incorporated magnetic field probes for collecting high-quality MRI and magnetic-field monitoring data concurrently. Methods The development process of the custom coil involved several (iterative) phases. Standard temporal SNR and B1+ data were collected with the 32-channel Siemens and for reference the 32-channel/8-channel Philips head coils before and ...

4. Maturational competence of equine oocytes is associated with alterations in their 'cumulome' 

   Walter, Jasmin; Colleoni, Silvia; Lazzari, Giovanna; et al. (2024)

   Molecular Human Reproduction

   Assisted reproductive technologies are an emerging field in equine reproduction, with species-dependent peculiarities, such as the low success rate of conventional IVF. Here, the 'cumulome' was related to the developmental capacity of its corresponding oocyte. Cumulus-oocyte complexes collected from slaughterhouse ovaries were individually matured, fertilized by ICSI, and cultured. After maturation, the cumulus was collected for proteomics ...

5. Glide-snow avalanches: a mechanical, threshold-based release area model 

   Fees, Amelie; van Herwijnen, Alec; Lombardo, Michael; et al. (2024)

   Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences

   Glide-snow avalanches release at the ground-snow interface due to a loss in basal friction. They pose a threat to infrastructure because of the combination of unreliable mitigation measures, limited forecasting capabilities, and a lack of understanding of the release process. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of spatial variability in basal friction and snowpack properties on the avalanche release area distribution ...
