Sensitivity of bistable laminates to uncertainties in material properties, geometry and environmental conditions
Under certain conditions asymmetric composite laminates can have a bistable response to mechanical loading. A transition between the two stable states provides opportunities to produce large deflections or shape changes from...

Frequency modelling and solution of fluid-structure interaction in complex pipelines
Complex pipelines may have various structural supports and boundary conditions, as well as branches. To analyse the vibrational characteristics of piping systems, frequency modelling and solution methods considering complex...

Rotating group design for vane pump flow ripple reduction
It is well known that the hydraulic pump is the main source of noise in hydraulic power steering systems. This noise is produced by the pulsating flow transmitted through the fluid due to the cyclic pumping mechanism. This flow...

Dietary fructose metabolism by splanchnic organs

The initial metabolism of fructose is thought to primarily take place in the liver. Using stable isotope labeling combined with tissue and arterio-venous sampling, Jang et al. (2018) demonstrate that in mice, the small...

Isocaloric carbohydrate versus carbohydrate-protein ingestion and cycling time-trial performance
R J Toone, J A Betts
Feb 01, 2010
This study was designed to compare the effects of energy-matched carbohydrate (CHO) and carbohydrate-protein (CHO-PRO) supplements on cycling time-trial performance. Twelve competitive male cyclists and triathletes each...

Carbohydrate availability as a regulator of energy balance with exercise

We explore the novel hypothesis that carbohydrate availability is involved in the regulation of energy balance with exercise, via hormonal and neural signals. We propose that carbohydrate availability could play a direct...

Postexercise glucose–fructose coingestion augments cycling capacity during short-term and overnight recovery from exhaustive exercise, compared with isocaloric glucose

During short-term recovery, postexercise glucose–fructose coingestion can accelerate total glycogen repletion and augment recovery of running capacity. It is unknown if this advantage translates to cycling, or to a longer...
