Background: The primitive cable car is the generic name given to the cable transportation settings driven between one or more steel cables is known as 'varangel.' In this retrospective autopsy study, it was aimed to discuss the common injury patterns of the fatalities associated with the use of these primitive cable car systems.
Methods: It is a retrospective archive-based study. The analysis of autopsy records of 10-year period between 2007 and 2016 revealed eight death cases resulting from the primitive cable car accident.
Results: It was revealed that the primitive cable car-related deaths mainly occur because of blunt traumas (crash of cage, chit by the broken cables, and failing from height) and electric shock. The blunt traumas and failings from height occur because of contact with the cage of primitive cable car, whereas the electric shocks occur because of contact with cables, on which the cage is hung.
Conclusion: Primitive cable cars may be fatal and must be under official control.

Numerous recent research efforts have leveraged networks of rigid struts and flexible cables, called tensegrity structures, to create highly resilient and packable mobile robots. However, the locomotion of existing tensegrity robots is limited in terms of both speed and number of distinct locomotion modes, restricting the environments that a robot is capable of exploring. In this study, we present a tensegrity robot inspired by the volumetric expansion of Tetraodontidae.

In the normal lung, the dominant cable is an elastic "line element" composed of elastin fibers bound to a protein scaffold. The cable line element maintains alveolar geometry by balancing surface forces within the alveolus and changes in lung volume with exercise. Recent work in the postnatal rat lung has suggested that the process of cable development is self-organized in the extracellular matrix.

Here, we present fusion-based quantum computation, a model for fault tolerant quantum computing constructed from physical primitives readily accessible in photonic systems. These are entangling measurements, called fusions, which are performed on the qubits of small constant sized entangled resource states.

Due to large, complex deformations, the accurate design of cables has become a major problem in the manufacturing of aerospace products. The current design method often leads to large products, uncertain centroids, and poor reliability. To solve these problems, a computer-aided optimal design method for flexible cables was proposed based on dynamic analogy modeling.

At present, intraoperative neuromonitorization (IONM) with surface electrode-based endotracheal tube (ETT) is a standard method in thyroidectomy and can be performed either intermittently IONM (I-IONM) or continuously IONM (C-IONM). Despite the valuable contribution of I-IONM to the thyroidectomy, it still has limitations regarding the recording electrodes and stimulation probe. New approaches for overcoming the limitations of I-IONM and developing the method are taking attention.
