The bonded resistance strain gage, which is central to the topics treated here, was invented in the late 1930's and is now at about the mid-century mark in its career. During the first fifty years of its existence, the strain gage has been applied to virtually every known load-bearing material – ranging from asphalt to zirconium, and missing few, if any, of the letters in between. Whether the m...

BACKGROUND Expression of cancer/testis-associated proteins (CTAs) has traditionally been considered to be restricted to germ cells in normal tissues and to different types of malignancies. We have evaluated the potential role of CTAs in early human development. METHODS Using immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR, we investigated the expression of CTAs in differentiated human embryonic stem cells (h...

In the United States, several thousand stream gages provide what typically is the only source of continuous, long-term streamflow and channel-geometry information for the locations being monitored. In this paper, the geomorphic content of stream-gage information, previous and potential applications of stream-gage information in fluvial geomorphic research and various possible limitations are de...

Wearable devices and smart sport equipment are being increasingly used in amateur and professional sports. Smart sport equipment employs various sensors for detecting its state and actions. The correct choice of the most appropriate sensor(s) is of paramount importance for efficient and successful operation of sport equipment. When integrated into the sport equipment, ideal sensors are unobstru...

BACKGROUND Baseplate micromotion of the reverse shoulder glenoid component can lead to implant loosening. We hypothesized that a remotely positioned displacement gage measures elastic deformation of the system rather than actual micromotion at the implant/bone interface. METHODS Reverse glenoid components were implanted into polyurethane blocks of 3 different densities. A 700 N compressive lo...

Prefabricated modular housing structures have become a promising alternative to site-built structures with equal or higher engineering quality and durability. Major advantages of this technology are fast and cost-efficient construction, reduced labor requirements, and superior quality control due to factory production. The modular design of these prefabricated structures offers the opportunity ...
