It is widely believed that the discrete breather (DB) can only be created when the nonlinearity is strong in nonlinear systems. However, we here establish that this belief is incorrect. In this work, we systemically investigate the generation of DBs induced by coupling of the defects and nonlinearity for Bose-Einstein condensates in dissipative optical lattices.

We proposed a novel internal fixation configuration, lateral intramedullary nail and medial plate (LINMP) and verified its rigidity through biomechanical tests and finite element analysis.
Methods: The study involved biomechanical testing of 30 synthetic humerus models to compare 2 different fixation systems for an AO 13C-2.
Article Synopsis
- Bone defects caused by diabetes are difficult to treat due to fluctuating glucose levels, which produce harmful reactive oxygen species (ROS) that disrupt bone healing.
- Researchers developed a new hydrogel made from gelatin methacrylate (GelMA) and molybdenum (Mo)-based polyoxometalate nanoclusters (POM) to help manage ROS and support bone cell growth and differentiation.
- The GelMA/POM hydrogel showed promising results in lab experiments, effectively reducing ROS and promoting bone regeneration in diabetic mice, potentially opening new avenues for treatment of bone defects in diabetes.
The curing kinetics between PGN and N100 were studied by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and dynamic torsional vibration method. The results showed that the entire curing process of adhesives was divided into three stages. Infrared spectroscopy can only monitor the first and second stages, while dynamic torsional vibration method monitors the second and third stages.
