The multiring disk resonator gyroscope (DRG) has been a candidate for high performance gyroscopes, however nowadays the finite element method (FEM) is the main method for its analysis due to its complex structure. In this paper we propose a new method to mathematically model the DRG for its vibrating modes and lumped parameters based on the component mode synthesis (CMS) method. Firstly, the natural frequencies and the associated mode shapes of the DRG are mathematically modeled and a comparison with the FEM results is conducted. It shows that the mode shapes of DRG obtained by FEM and mathematical modeling are identical and in the full ranges of geometrical parameters, natural frequency error of the simulation, and calculation results are limited in ±15%. It demonstrates the effectivity and feasibility of the mathematical modeling method. Then, based on the calculated natural frequencies and mode shapes, the lumped mass-spring model of the DRG and effects of geometry parameters on the lumped mass-spring parameters are investigated, which can be used on the design of the DRG. This mathematical modeling method can effectively improve the analyzing efficiency of the DRG and the method can also be used on the analysis of other complex multiring-type resonators.

Synechococcus is a significant primary producer in the oceans, coexisting with cyanophages, which are important agents of mortality. Bacterial resistance against phage infection is a topic of significant interest, yet little is known for ecologically relevant systems. Here we use exogenous gene expression and gene disruption to investigate mechanisms underlying intracellular resistance of marine Synechococcus WH5701 to the Syn9 cyanophage.

Objective: To evaluate the added value of dynamic contrast-enhanced ultrasound (DCE-US) analysis in pre-operative differential diagnosis of small (≤20 mm) solid pancreatic lesions (SPLs).
Methods: In this retrospective study, patients with biopsy or surgerical resection and histopathologically confirmed small (≤20 mm) SPLs were included. One wk before biopsy/surgery, pre-operative B-mode ultrasound and contrast-enhanced ultrasound were performed.

Fano resonance is achieved by tuning two coupled oscillators and has exceptional potential for modulating light dispersion. Here, distinct from the classical Fano resonances achieved through photonics methodologies, we introduce the Fano resonance in epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) media with novel electromagnetic properties. By adjusting the background permeability of the ENZ host, the transmission spectrum exhibits various dispersive line shapes and covers the full range of Fano parameter q morphologies, from negative to positive infinity.

Background: Mild Behavioral Impairment (MBI) is a condition characterized by neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) in older adults without dementia, serving as a precursor to various forms of dementia. This study explores the association between NPS and functional connectivity (FC) within the default mode network (DMN), executive control network (ECN), and salience network (SN) across three high-risk cohorts: mild cognitive impairment (due to Alzheimer's) (MCI, n = 79), cerebrovascular disease (CVD, n = 144), and Parkinson's disease (PD, n = 132).
Method: A total of 367 participants were recruited from the Ontario Neurodegenerative Disease Research Initiative (ONDRI).

As biomimicry advances, liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs) are gaining attention for their (multi-)stimuli-responsiveness and reversible shape morphing. Introduction of dynamic bonds into the LCEs provides versatile means towards programmable shape morphing and adaptation to environmental cues, and new designs for dynamic LCEs are actively sought for. Here, we present a supramolecular LCE that integrates shape memory programming, humidity sensitivity, and photochemical actuation.
