Dynamic centrifugal loads exerted by intraocular lenses (IOL) on the ocular tissues during eye movements are studied, and the estimates of the quality of IOLs made of different materials are derived as a function of the density and the refraction index. The increase in the mass of IOLs may be observed under dynamic centrifugal loads depending upon the material, dimensions and the techniques of IOL fixation. The relation between the material quality and its density and refraction index is found thus facilitating the estimation of various materials for IOL manufacture.

This paper explores the applicability of bicycle-inspired balance control in a quadruped robot model. Bicycles maintain stability and change direction by intuitively steering the handle, which induces yaw motion in the body frame and generates an inertial effect to support balance. Inspired by this balancing strategy, we implemented a similar mechanism in a quadruped robot model, introducing a yaw trunk joint analogous to a bicycle's steering handle.

Mitochondria play a fundamental role in energy metabolism, particularly in high-energy-demand tissues such as skeletal muscle. Understanding the proteomic composition of mitochondria in these cells is crucial for elucidating the mechanisms underlying muscle physiology and pathology. However, effective isolation of mitochondria from primary human skeletal muscle cells has been challenging due to the complex cellular architecture and the propensity for contamination with other organelles.

Centrifugal compressors are widely used in the oil and natural gas industry for gas compression, reinjection, and transportation. Fault diagnosis and identification of centrifugal compressors are crucial. To promptly monitor abnormal changes in compressor data and trace the causes leading to these data anomalies, this paper proposes a security monitoring and root cause tracing method for compressor data anomalies.

Background: Centrifugal compressors are dynamic machines utilizing a rotating impeller, efficiently accelerate incoming gases, transforming kinetic energy into pressure energy for compression. They serve a wide range of industries, including air conditioning, refrigeration, gas turbines, industrial processes, and applications such as air compression, gas transportation, and petrochemicals, demonstrating their versatility. Designing a centrifugal compressor poses challenges related to achieving high aerodynamic efficiency, surge and choke control, material selection, rotor dynamics, cavitation, erosion, and addressing environmental considerations while balancing costs.

In the present study, we experimentally investigate the liquid flow induced in a rotating drum (cylindrical tank with a short aspect ratio) aligned horizontally, focusing on the variation in the time-averaged and fluctuating flow structures with different fill ratios. For each fill ratio, controlled by varying the water height, we measure the velocity fields at different cross-sectional planes with particle image velocimetry while varying the rotational speed of the drum. Compared to the condition of a fill ratio of 1.
