Development of a Solution Method to Promote Proper Bandaging Techniques for Transfemoral Amputees by Lalla, Bhaveen

“…Target bandage lengths are expected to apply adequate pressure, while covering the exposed area of the residual limb for the current bandaging step. Testing occurred on an anatomically correct residual limb model (ACM) and five constructed models (CM) assembled by altering proximal and distal ACM circumferential measurements in increments of 5 cm. …”

Development and preliminary numerical investigations of a dislocation density-based finite-strain rate-dependent elastoplasticity constitutive model by Garschagen, Emma

“…The model is fit to 5XXX series aluminium mechanical test data sourced from literature, and from preliminary investigations, it is shown that the work hardening behaviour and associated dislocation density evolution under the given loading conditions concurs with general trends seen in literature.…”

N and P limitation of fynbos plants and the nutritional status of legume habitats in the Cape Floristic Region by Potgieter, Gardia Purchase

“…In general, terrestrial ecosystems are limited by both N and P, but, as legumes fix atmospheric nitrogen, I hypothesized that fynbos legumes would be P limited and nonlegumes would be N limited, and that the degree to which these plants respond to N and P would depend on the levels of each of these two nutrients in the growth media. To test these hypotheses, three legumes and three non-legumes native to the fynbos were grown in a complete factorial arrangement of four levels of N and P in a glass house. …”

Investigating cortical arousal and cognition in schizophrenia and methamphetamine-induced psychotic disorder: an electroencephalography and cytokine study by Williams, Kimberley Clare

“…This study aimed to investigate key differences in brain electrical activity on EEG between SCZ and MPD by investigating; (1) relative frequency (alpha, theta, beta and delta) at rest; (2) cognitive performance and relative frequency activity during the continuous performance task (CPT) and cued target detection task (CTD); (3) differences in the P300 event-related potential waveform (ERP), a measure of attention, during the CPT and CTD; (4) cognitive performance and relative frequency and ERP (N170, P300) during the STROOP task, a measure of working memory and executive function; (5) the associations of (neuro) inflammatory markers with relative frequency and the P300 ERP waveform. …”
