Dorsal closure (DC) is an essential step during Drosophila development whereby a hole is sealed in the dorsal epidermis and serves as a model for cell sheet morphogenesis and wound healing. It involves the orchestrated interplay of transcriptional networks and dynamic regulation of cell machinery to bring about shape changes, mechanical forces, and emergent properties. Here we provide insight i...

Healing of the bone is different with the other part of the body. Fracture healing is actually a bone regeneration with no scar tissues, where as in wound healing, injured tissue is replaced by  connective tissue which became a scar, Traditionally fracture healing is divided in to 4 stages: 1) Stage of inflammation; 2) Stage of soft callus; 3) Stage of hard callus and 4) Stage of remodeling. In...

Coefficients or hydrodynamic derivatives of autonomous underwater vehicles play a key role in their development. The most popular way for the estimation of coefficient is to implement captive model tests such as straight line tests and planar motion mechanism tests in towing tanks. In this paper, investigation of hydrodynamic derivatives was performed based on the water tunnel maneuvers. Forces...

Nature exhibits a fruitful inspiration source for building self-managing systems. The human body’s autonomous nervous system, its reflex and healing system, or its immune system inspired the building of self-managing systems in the same way as biological systems as ant, termite, or bee colonies. Thereby, self-managing systems based on such biological, self-organizing systems mostly rely on Swar...

Self managing and autonomic computing are emerging as new significant trend in design of computer systems. As we try to make the systems as autonomous as possible, new problems and new solutions emerge. The purpose of this paper is to consider the problem of self healing system and to suggest some solutions. We need systems which can detect their failure and could not only recover from it but a...

Introducing methods for instant tough bonding between hydrogels and antagonistic materials-from soft to hard-allows us to demonstrate elastic yet tough biomimetic devices and machines with a high level of complexity. Tough hydrogels strongly attach, within seconds, to plastics, elastomers, leather, bone, and metals, reaching unprecedented interfacial toughness exceeding 2000 J/m2. Healing of se...

A model and simulation of the “Electric Enterprise” (taken in the broadest possible sense) have been developed. The model uses autonomous, adaptive agents to represent both the possible industrial components, and the corporate entities that own these components. An open access transmission application and real-time pricing has been implemented. Objectives are: 1) To develop a high-fidelity scen...

The use of mobile sensors is of great relevance to monitor critical areas where sensors cannot be deployed manually. The presence of data collector sinks causes increased energy depletion in their proximity, due to the higher relay load under multi-hop communication schemes (sink-hole phenomenon). We propose a new approach towards the solution of this problem by means of an autonomous deploymen...

For decades, motorsport has been an incubator for innovations in the automotive sector and brought forth systems like disk brakes or rearview mirrors. Autonomous racing series such as Roborace, F1Tenth, Indy Challenge (IAC) are envisioned playing a similar role within autonomous vehicle sector, serving proving ground new technology at limits of capabilities. This paper outlines software stack a...

a 3-year-old arabian colt was presented for a major gingiva wound at the right rostral part of mandible. after clinical assessments, rostral mandibular fracture was determined. stabilization of fractured region was achieved via cerclage wire application under general anesthesia. fixation wires were left in place for 6 weeks. a 3 -month follow up revealed complete fracture healing. the purpose o...
