The technology of hardware-in-the-loop simulations (HILS) plays an important role in the design of complex systems, for example, the structural health monitoring (SHM) of aircrafts. Due to the high performance of personal computers, HILS can provide practical solutions to many problems in engineering and sciences, especially in the huge systems, giant dams for civil engineering, and aircraft system. This study addresses the HILS in hole/crack identification in composite laminates.

Article Synopsis
  • The study examined how behavioral training affects learning and memory in offspring rats with fetal growth retardation (FGR), focusing on changes in NR2B and GluR1 expression in the hippocampus.
  • The FGR model was created through passive smoking, with rats assessed using tests like the Morris water maze and dark-avoidance test to measure learning and memory improvements after training.
  • Results showed that while FGR rats initially performed worse in memory tests, behavioral training led to significant improvements, possibly linked to increased expression of NR2B and GluR1 in the hippocampus, particularly in the CA1 region.

Objective: To test the impact of fetal growth restriction (FGR) on the spatial learning and memory abilities of the offspring of rats.

Methods: FGR Model of Sprague-Dawley rats was constructed according to the method of passive smoking. The offspring of the rats were divided into male FGR group, male control group, female FGR group and female control group.
