Flow Analysis of Viscoelastic Tube Using One-Dimensional Numerical Simulation Model
Journal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2006 In order to analyze the pressure wave propagation in circulatory systems, we previously presented a one-dimensional numerical flow simulation model that describes wave propagation in silicone tubes well and shows that the viscoelasticity of the tube has ...

Fluid flows shaping organism morphology
, 2018 A dynamic self-organized morphology is the hallmark of network-shaped organisms like slime moulds and fungi. Organisms continuously re-organize their flexible, undifferentiated body plans to forage for food. Among these organisms the slime mould Physarum

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.dUTPases are involved in balancing the appropriate nucleotide pools. We showed that dUTPase is essential for normal development in zebrafish. The different zebrafish genomes contain several single‐nucleotide variations (SNPs) of the dut gene. One of the dUTPase variants displayed drastically lower protein stability and catalytic efficiency as compared ...
