In this paper, static and dynamic tensile tests were conducted on two kinds of polycarbonate (HL6157 and A1225BK), combined with the digital image correlation (DIC), for guiding the development of the battery pack of new energy vehicles. The mechanical properties of polycarbonate at low-speed (0.01/s) and high-speed (1/s, 100/s) tension were investigated and the microstructure of the fracture for polycarbonate at different speed tensions was also investigated. The fracture microstructure of two kinds of materials was also investigated in this paper. The tension results showed that as the strain rate increased, the yield strength and modulus increased, and the yield strength of the two materials increased by 30% under high-speed tension. In addition, the fracture strain increase was greater than 10% as the strain rate increased. Meanwhile, for polycarbonate, the strain rate increased, and the fracture toughness increased.

Accurately modeling the deformation of temperate glacier ice, which is at its pressure-melting temperature and contains liquid water at grain boundaries, is essential for predicting ice sheet discharge to the ocean and associated sea-level rise. Central to such modeling is Glen's flow law, in which strain rate depends on stress raised to a power of = 3 to 4. In sharp contrast to this nonlinearity, we found by conducting large-scale, shear-deformation experiments that temperate ice is linear-viscous ( 1.

Background: Postoperative infection is one of the main complications that affect the surgical effect of auricular reconstruction with tissue expansion. Understanding the susceptible time and distribution of pathogens is especially important for the treatment.
Method: The data of patients with infection after auricular reconstruction with tissue expansion from September 1, 2018 to August 30, 2024 were collected retrospectively.
Background: Social and structural determinants of health (SSDoH) must be measured longitudinally in order to better understand the effects of lived experiences on the trajectories of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD) outcomes. We repeated administration of an SSDOH survey to examine response rates and response consistency in a sample of cognitively typical older adults.
Method: One online survey and one follow-up survey were administered to cognitively unimpaired participants (n = 135) in the UPenn Alzheimer's Disease Research Center clinical cohort ∼1.
Background: Previous studies have documented age-related changes in behavior and cognitive functions and investigated the molecular changes in aging brain using inbred mouse strains such as C57BL/6, BALB/c etc. In this study using a genetically heterogenous mouse population (UM-HET3) we investigated age-related changes in motor and memory functions and their association with blood cell measures.
Method: Both male and female UM-HET3 mice at age of 11 months (middle-aged) and 25 months (old) were used in this study.
