It has remained a formidable challenge to conduct reliable and high-yield intracellular recording from awake nonhuman primates (Long and Lee, 2012). Because the non-synchronized responses in auditory cortex cannot be observed under anesthesia (Bendor and Wang, 2007, Lu et al., 2001b, Wang et ...
Hence, the purpose of my essay is to review critically the many ways (some novel) that variation in whole-body metabolic rate may relate to cell size. By doing so, I hope to stimulate further research that will explicate the mechanisms involved. 2. Major Ways That Variation in Metabolic ...
The absence of temporal-domain fracture evolution information becomes the bottleneck challenge in establishing direct relationships between dynamic fractures and the constitutive behavior of fiber-reinforced materials. High strain rate stress versus time is a crucial mechanical indicator, depicting stress ...
However, the capability to use finger-powered micropumps to perform advanced microfluidic operations system has remained a significant challenge [32]. Although finger actuation is a simple action that anyone can easily accomplish, there would be variation in the individual finger actuation producing ...
Therefore, the available traffic information related to packet losses is less in application-level packet loss estimation, which poses a challenge to the estimation accuracy. In view of this, taking the L-Rex model [8] as the cut-in spot, this paper focuses on improving the accuracy and ...

The quantification of such properties (pore network at multi- ple scales, hydraulic conductivity) that are essential to many hydrogeological problems, although studied extensively, still remains a challenge and imposes further restrictions on understanding fluid flow processes in weakly cemented porous ...
Flexible Satellites: A New Challenge for the Communication Satellite Industry. In Proceedings of the 25th AIAA International Communications Satellite Systems Conference, Seoul, Korea, 10–13 April 2007. 5. Liu, B.; Fang, J.; Liu, G. Design of a magnetically suspended gyrowheel and analysis of...
Batteries 2020, 6, 0057 10 of 18 in ageing cells remains a design challenge, especially for applications requiring both extended lifespan and power. Non-uniform or heterogeneous pressure has been shown to directly affect Li diffusion through the separator and can influence changes in porosity and ...
However, the overwhelming challenge that has prevented the im- plementation of next-generation Zn batteries lies in their poor rechargeability—flowing electrolytes have proven to be of benefit to zinc deposition and dissolution cycling, but the rapid zinc deposition– dissolution at practical current ...
