Feasibility of a Short-Arm Centrifuge for Mouse Hypergravity Experiments
To elucidate the pure impact of microgravity on small mammals despite uncontrolled factors that exist in the International Space Station, it is necessary to construct a 1 g environment in space. The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency has developed a novel mouse habitat cage unit that can be installed in the Cell Biology Experiment Facility in the Kibo module of the International Space Station. ...
متن کاملCerebral circulation during mild +Gz hypergravity by short-arm human centrifuge.
We examined changes in cerebral circulation in 15 healthy men during exposure to mild +Gz hypergravity (1.5 Gz, head-to-foot) using a short-arm centrifuge. Continuous arterial pressure waveform (tonometry), cerebral blood flow (CBF) velocity in the middle cerebral artery (transcranial Doppler ultrasonography), and partial pressure of end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETco(2)) were measured in the sitti...
متن کاملinvestigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures
deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
A New Electronically Monitored Centrifuge for the Analysis of Plant Growth in Simulated Hypergravity
Hypergravity is able to stimulate at a cellular level both the lignin formation and the peroxidase enzyme action in plants. Centrifuges have proven to be one of the most important tools for researchers for simulating such conditions. This paper presents a new design for a centrifuge simulating hypergravity used for plant experiments. It represents a more robust and completely redesigned equipme...
متن کاملThe Influence of Gravity on Cardiorespiratory Regulation: a Comparison of Short-duration Spaceflight and the Esa Short- Arm Human Centrifuge
Respiratory Sinus Arrhythmia (RSA), usually the high frequency (HF) component of heart rate variability (HRV), is a cardiorespiratory interaction mediated by the vagus nerve. RSA is thus considered a marker of the parasympathetic modulation of heart rate. Previous studies reported decrease in RSA after spaceflight. Whether this can be due to autonomic adaption to microgravity or only result fro...
