introduction: the low regeneration of bone in defective bones causes therapeutic problems. various strategies to assess the healing of bone defects have been used which they include histological and histo-chemical analysis in an invasive study. the purpose of this study was to determine the ultrasonic parameters of bone as a promising noninvasive technology for assessing bone repair process. ma...

     The overall goal of this study was to identify the appropriate biomaterials able to facilitate the regeneration in rat's injured adult spinal cord. Acute damage to axons is manifested as a breach in their membranes, ionexchange distortion across the compromised region, local depolarization and even conduction block. It would be of particular importance to interrupt the progress of events h...

This study examined possible links between the occurrence of prosodic changes to vocalizations and gestures and the use of problem behaviors by children with autism when attempting to repair communication breakdowns. The repair strategies of six children with autism aged 2-5 years and with fewer than 10 words or signs were analyzed. Mother-child dyads were videotaped at home interacting in natu...

Human adipose tissue represents an abundant, practical and appealing source of donor tissue for autologous cell replacement. Recent findings have shown that stem cells within the stromalvascular fraction of adipose tissue display a multilineage developmental potential. Adipose tissue-derived stem cells can be differentiated towards adipogenic, osteogenic, chondrogenic,myogenic and neurogenic li...

multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells or mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) are mainly isolated from bone marrow or fat tissue. because of their potential of multilineage differentiation towards bone, cartilage and fat tissue, they were initially evaluated to develop innovative strategies for tissue engineering applications. more recently, they have gained interest based on their immunomodulatory pr...

Self-reconfigurable modular robots consist of multiple elements and have the potential to enable future autonomous systems adapt themselves handle unstructured environments, novel tasks, or damage their constituent elements. This paper considers methods self-assembly, bringing together robotic modules form larger organism-like structures, self-repair, removing replacing faulty damaged by intern...

In order to minimize disturbance impact in complex organizations, we propose a distributed scheduling repair method based on agent modelling approach and new cooperative repair behaviours between modelled actors. We redefine repair operations and repair strategies, and illustrate them on a case study in organization of building site, where the proposed multiagent model is isomorphic to the actu...
