MECHANICALLY-INDUCED OSTEOGENESIS IN THE CORTICAL BONE OF PRE- TO PERIPUBERTAL STAGE AND PERI- TO POSTPUBERTAL STAGE MICE

Mechanically-induced osteogenesis in the cortical bone of pre- to peripubertal stage and peri- to postpubertal stage mice

Abstract Background Exercise during postnatal development plays a key role in determining adult bone mass and reducing the risk of fracture and osteoporosis later in life.However, the relationship between mechanically-induced osteogenesis and age is unclear.Elevated levels of estrogen during puberty may inhibit periosteal bone formation.Thus, magni

Constructing Viking Link: How the Infopower of Cost-benefit Analysis as a Calculative Device Reinforces the Energopower of Transmission Infrastructure

This paper sheds light on the performativity of economics in the decision-making process behind Vinegar Cruets/Pourers Viking Link, a Danish-British interconnector under construction.It shows how energopower, that is, the political power inherent to energy infrastructures, is reinforced through the workings of cost-benefit analysis as prescribed by

A Role of Base Plate Jerk Feedback Scheme for Suppression of the Self Vibration in a Pneumatic Positioning Stage

In this study, a positioning stage is considered, which is actuated by four pneumatic cylinders and vertically supported by four coil-type spring isolators.Previously, we realized the base plate jerk feedback (BPJFB) to be analogues to booties a Master-Slave system which can synchronize the motion of the stage as a Slave to the motion of the base p
