Ground collapse: effect of building position on tunnelling-induced soil movements
Geohazard MechanicsThe mechanisms of tunnelling-induced ground movements are important for risk assessments of tunnelling beneath masonry buildings with shallow foundations, including ground collapse disasters.

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

Centrifuge modelling of jacket foundation subjected to cyclic lateral loading in soft clay
Yantu gongcheng xuebao, 2018 The centrifugal model tests are carried out on a jacket foundation subjected to cyclic lateral loading in saturated soft clay to investigate the force and deformation characteristics of the jacket foundation under cyclic lateral loading from wind and ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Static and dynamic rocking stiffness of shallow footings on sand: centrifuge modelling
, 2018 Small-strain foundation response has mostly been studied analytically, with limited experimental verification against 1g physical model tests. This paper revisits the problem of small-strain foundation response, conducting a series of centrifuge model ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Modelling stem cell differentiation related processes—A practical overview for biologists
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Stem cell differentiation is complex and difficult to control experimentally. This review introduces suitable computational modelling approaches that can support stem cell research, from mechanistic ODE and abstract models to multiscale and deep learning methods.

Submarine landslide flows simulation through centrifuge modelling [PDF]
, 2012 Landslides occur both onshore and offshore. However, little attention has been given to offshore landslides (submarine landslides). Submarine landslides have significant impacts and consequences on offshore and coastal facilities.

Centrifuge modelling of dry granular run-out processes under deflective Coriolis condition
Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical EngineeringCoriolis effects, encompassing the dilative, compressive, and deflective manifestations, constitute pivotal considerations in the centrifugal modelling of high-speed granular run-out processes.
