Re-entrant relaxor ferroelectric behaviour is identified in BiFeO 3 –BaTiO ceramics, yielding anomalous thermal variations structural distortion and functional properties.

AIMS One form of the short QT syndrome (SQT3) has been linked to the D172N gain-in-function mutation to Kir2.1, which preferentially increases outward current through channels responsible for inward rectifier K(+) current (I(K1)). This study investigated mechanisms by which the Kir2.1 D172N mutation facilitates and perpetuates ventricular arrhythmias. METHODS AND RESULTS The ten Tusscher et a...

Protection of critical infrastructure in an urban environment is a challenging task, specifically against the vehicle bourne improvised explosive device threat. To design to withstand this evolving threat, novel solutions and advanced materials need be developed. One such material interest are auxetics. This study experimentally analysed mitigation blast response auxetic re-entrant honeycomb st...

We describe a combined experiment-modelling framework to investigate the effects of ischaemia on the organisation of ventricular fibrillation in the human heart. In a series of experimental studies epicardial activity was recorded from 10 patients undergoing routine cardiac surgery. Ventricular fibrillation was induced by burst pacing, and recording continued during 2.5 min of global cardiac is...
