We perform experimental and numerical studies of a granular system under cyclic compression to investigate reversibility and memory effects. We focus on the quasistatic forcing of dense systems, which is most relevant to a wide range of geophysical, industrial, and astrophysical problems. We find that soft-sphere simulations with proper stiffness and friction quantitatively reproduce both the translational and rotational displacements of the grains. We then utilize these simulations to demonstrate that such systems are capable of storing the history of previous compressions. While both mean translational and rotational displacements encode such memory, the response is fundamentally different for translations compared to rotations. For translational displacements, this memory of prior forcing depends on the coefficient of static interparticle friction, but rotational memory is not altered by the level of friction.

November 2024
Department of Mechanical Engineering, National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University, Hsinchu 30010, Taiwan.
This study introduces a novel deposition technique capable of depositing thin films with any arbitrary thickness profile. The apparatus consists of a fixed shadow mask and a rotating sample carrier plate. The shadow mask features a specifically designed opening curve that corresponds to the particular thickness profile of the deposited film.

: Most orthodontic forces are absorbed-dissipated before reaching the dental pulp and its neuro-vascular bundle (NVB); however, no data are available about their amounts. The objective of this study was to assess the amount of orthodontic force that reaches the dental pulp and its NVB during orthodontic movements in a healthy periodontium. : This study involved the second lower premolars of nine patients and 180 numerical simulations.

Background: The Simple Shoulder Test (SST) is a widely used patient-reported outcome measure for shoulder function. However, there is currently no version of the SST for the Thai population.
Purpose: To cross-culturally adapt and evaluate the reliability and validity of a Thai version of the SST (Thai SST) for patients with shoulder pathologies, using the Thai version of the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score as a comparison tool.
Structural insights into signaling promiscuity of the CBASS anti-phage defense system from a radiation-resistant bacterium.
Int J Biol Macromol

Department of Food Science and Biotechnology, National Chung Hsing University, Taichung 40227, Taiwan. Electronic address:
Radiation-resistant bacteria are of great application potential in various fields, including bioindustry and bioremediation of radioactive waste. However, how radiation-resistant bacteria combat against invading phages is seldom addressed. Here, we present a series of crystal structures of a sensor and an effector of the cyclic oligonucleotide-based anti-phage signaling system (CBASS) from a radioresistant bacterium Deinococcus wulumuqiensis.
