The possibility of suppressing self-excited vibrations of mechanical systems using parametric excitation is discussed. We consider a two-mass system of which the main mass is excited by a ow-induced, self excited force. A single mass which acts as a dynamic absorber is attached to the main mass and, by varying the stiiness between the main mass and the absorber mass, represents a parametric exc...

Misinformation has been identified as a major contributor to various contentious contemporary events ranging from elections and referenda the response COVID-19 pandemic. Not only can belief in misinformation lead poor judgements decision-making, it also exerts lingering influence on people’s reasoning after corrected — an effect known continued effect. In this Review, we describe cognitive, soc...

First published October 17, 2007; doi:10.1152/jn.00260.2007. Understanding the mechanisms of learning requires characterizing how the response properties of individual neurons and interactions across populations of ...

Abstract We calculate the cross-section of ionization by free-electron impacts in high or moderate density plasmas. show that so-called potential depression (IPD) strongly affects magnitude high-density domain. use well-known IPD formulas Stewart–Pyatt and Ecker–Kröll. A more recent approach based on classical molecular dynamics simulation is also investigated. The latter provides an alternativ...

Fighting corruption is a vital aspect of good governance. When assessing government performance voters should thus withdraw electoral support from government parties that turn a blind eye to or even engage in corrupt practices. Whereas most accounts of performance-based voting focus on economic outcomes, we analyse whether and to what extent voters punish incumbents for high levels of corruptio...

Characteristic for cruciferous plants is their production of N- and S-containing indole phytoalexins with disease resistance and cancer-preventive properties, previously proposed to be synthesized from indole independently of tryptophan. We show that camalexin, the indole phytoalexin of Arabidopsis thaliana, is synthesized from tryptophan via indole-3-acetaldoxime (IAOx) in a reaction catalyzed...
