Given the critical role of liver mechanics in regulating cell response and directing the development of tissue fibrosis, accurately characterising its mechanical behaviour is of relevance for both diagnostic purposes as well as for tissue engineering and for the development of in-vitro models.
We considered all behaviour to be of relevance, not just health-related behaviours.
Overall, this study leads to an improved understanding of the significance of shape on particle behaviour which is of relevance to many practical flows.
One of the most applied theories to study behaviours of environmental relevance is the theory of planned behaviour (TPB) [5].
Qualitative and quantitative data from questionnaires and Rapid Rural Appraisal demonstrate how links between groups directly and indirectly influence behaviours of conservation relevance (including existing and potential resource-use and proconservation activities).
Based on the decision behaviour the relevance of the different characteristics for the decision can be calculated and described by coefficients.
While economics helps us understand the complex interactions between individuals and environmental conditions that ultimately result in behaviour, the relevance of individual differences in preferences, cognition, and personality raises the question if genetic variation could be relevant in explaining economic decisions.
Evidence demonstrates these compounds to be capable of influencing the behaviour of fish, but the relevance of many reported behavioural endpoints is unclear and the value of some findings has been questioned.
The acoustical reflection and transmission properties of flat plates in water are of relevance to the behaviour of submerged structures exposed to waterborne sound waves.
This suggests that the ex vivo invasive behaviour of FLS from patients with RA is of relevance for the rate of joint destruction in patients with RA.
