Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN), with excellent thermal conductivity and insulation capability, has garnered significant attention in the field of electronic thermal management. However, the thermal conductivity of the h-BN-enhanced polymer composite material is far from that expected because of the insurmountable interfacial thermal resistance. In order to realize the high thermal conductivity of polymer composite thermal interface materials, herein, an in situ exfoliation method has been employed to prepare a boron nitride nanosheet-graphene (BNNS-Gr) hybrid filler.

Background: Therapies for cartilage restoration are of great interest, but current options provide limited results. In salamanders, interzone (IZN) tissue can regenerate large joint lesions. The mammalian homolog to this tissue exists during fetal development and exhibits remarkable chondrogenesis in vitro.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFRhinoplasty is one of the major surgical procedures most popular and it is generally performed modelling the internal bones and cartilage using a closed approach to reduce the damage of soft tissue, whose final shape is determined by means of their new settlement over the internal remodelled rigid structures. An optimal planning, achievable thanks to advanced acquisition of 3D images and thanks to the virtual simulation of the intervention via specific software. Anyway, the final result depends also on factors that cannot be totally predicted regarding the settlement of soft tissues on the rigid structures, and a final objective check would be useful to eventually perform some adjustments before to conclude the intervention.

Lower limb biomechanics of chronic ankle instability (CAI) individuals has been widely investigated, but few have evaluated the internal foot mechanics in CAI. This study evaluated bone and soft tissue stress in CAI contrasted with copers and non-injured participants during a cutting task. Integrating scanned 3D foot shapes and free-form deformation, sixty-six personalized finite element foot models were developed.

Prehensile arms are among the most remarkable features of the octopus, but little is known about the neural circuitry controlling arm movements. Here, we report on the cellular and molecular organization of the arm nervous system, focusing on its massive axial nerve cords (ANCs). We found that the ANC is segmented.
