Empirical relationships between acoustic parameters in human soft tissues
TL;DR: In this article, a highly significant empirical linear relationship is found between sound speed and density for a wide range of soft tissues, including adipose, parenchymal, muscular, and connective tissues as well as body fluids.

Salt dependence of the elasticity and overstretching transition of single DNA molecules
TL;DR: Measurements of the elasticity and overstretching transition as a function of monovalent salt concentration by stretching single DNA molecules in an optical tweezers apparatus indicate that both DNA strands remain close together during the transition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Light transport in tissue
TL;DR: Calculations and measurements reveal that very large errors can result if the optical properties are inaccurate, if anisotropic scattering is neglected, or if the finite size of the irradiating light beam is not taken into account.

Age dependence of oceanic intraplate seismicity and implications for lithospheric evolution
Douglas A. Wiens,Seth Stein +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used body wave modeling to determine the depths of oceanic intraplate earthquakes and found that the thickness of the lithosphere in which these earthquakes occur is approximately equal to or slightly greater than the flexural elastic thickness, but is much less than the seismic thickness determined from surface wave dispersion.

Neural network modeling for near wall turbulent flow
TL;DR: It is shown that for a relatively small additional computational cost nonlinear neural networks provide us with improved reconstruction and prediction capabilities for the near wall velocity fields.
