The mathematical model is a computer simulation that shows how muscles in the throat and esophagus move when we swallow.

For most people, swallowing is second nature, but how does it occur, and why do some people have difficulty with it?

Researchers at Kyushu University in Japan have developed a mathematical model that recreates the muscle movements of the ...

Zebras and tigers have stripes, cheetahs and leopards have spots, and the ocellated lizard (Timon lepidus) boasts a labyrinthine pattern of black-and-green chains of scales. Now researchers from the ...

Only a handful of molecules and mechanisms can generate such a huge diversity of forms and complexity in multicellular organisms. Recently, researchers investigated how this is possible using a simple ...

By extending a proof of a physically important behavior in one-dimensional quantum spin systems to higher dimensions, a RIKEN ...
