Collaborative networks for circularity

Global Sustainability
Non-technical summary Transitioning to a circular economy (CE) – where materials are reused rather than discarded – is a key sustainability challenge in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC). Quality infrastructure (QI), encompassing standards, metrology,

Circularity and Anthropophagic Consumption as a Metaphor: The Body as Currency?

A Peer-Reviewed Journal About, 2013
With an outset in two real cases of anthropophagy, one in the European continent (Germany) in 2001, and the other in South America (Brazil) in 2012, this article aims to to rethink forms of subjectivity versus circulation of information; technologies and the State’s machinery setup; and constitution of “nationalisms”.

Cyclic azapeptide CD36 ligand attenuates cardiac injury and reduces long‐chain fatty acid accumulation after myocardial ischemia–reperfusion in mice

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In a murine model of myocardial ischemia and reperfusion (MI/R), the CD36 azapeptide ligand MPE‐298 reduces cardiac injury and transiently lowers left ventricular long‐chain fatty acids (LCFAs) accumulation 3 h after reperfusion, accompanied by a decrease of oxidative stress and inflammation‐associated genes' expression in the heart and adipose tissue.

A new method for predicting the vortex induced aerodynamic characteristics of a body of revolution [PDF]

, 1995
The problem of mathematically modelling the symmetric vortex pair formed on the lee side of a body of revolution at moderate incidence to the freestream direction is addressed with a view to predicting its aerodynamic characteristics.

Simulation of incompressible viscous flows around moving objects by a variant of immersed boundary-Lattice Boltzmann method

, 2010
A variant of immersed boundary-lattice Boltzmann method (IB-LBM) is presented in this paper to simulate incompressible viscous flows around moving objects.

Hyperactive ice‐binding proteins stabilize cell membranes and improve resistance to dehydration stress in Caenorhabditis elegans

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
TisIBP8, a fungal‐derived hyperactive ice‐binding protein, helps Caenorhabditis elegans survive dehydration. It localizes near cell membranes, reduces cell damage, and helps maintain membrane structure during drying. These results suggest that ice‐binding proteins can protect cells from dehydration stress as well as freezing stress.

Dynamics of vortex shedding from slender cones

, 2009
PhDThe dynamics of vortex shedding from bluff bodies has been investigated experimentally for many decades, with the simple geometric case for the investigation being a uniform circular cylinder aligned with its axis normal to the flow. Even though

Molecular characterization of covRS mutations in M1UK Streptococcus pyogenes

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Group A Streptococcus (GAS) acquires covRS mutations driving a hypervirulent bacterial state, frequently associated with invasive disease‐like necrotizing fasciitis. We demonstrate that the newly emerged M1UK GAS lineage can also acquire these mutations.
