Intermediate strain rate testing methodologies and full-field optical strain measurement techniques for composite materials characterisation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Two optical full-field strain measurement techniques, Digital Image Correlation and the Grid Method, are applied to characterise the strain-rate dependent constitutive behaviour of composite materials.

Fabrication of a Composite Groove Array Surface with Gradient Wettability Which Delivers Enhanced Lubrication Performance

open access: yesLubricants
A novel composite groove array surface was fabricated using femtosecond laser ablation technology to enhance self-replenishment capability. Initially, the driving efficiency of droplets on the composite groove array surface was tested using a high-speed ...

Phosphoinositides and inositol phosphates as molecular glues

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Inositol phosphates (IPs) and phosphoinositides (PIPs) regulate diverse eukaryotic processes. Beyond recruiting signaling proteins or acting as structural cofactors, recent studies suggest they mediate protein–protein interactions as natural molecular glues.

PARK(ing) time–How park deficiency affects the biological clock in a Drosophila model of Parkinson's disease

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Drosophila park mutants serve as a model for Parkinson's disease. We used this strain to investigate the connection between oxidative stress and the circadian clock mechanism. We showed that increased oxidative stress affects the physiology of pacemaker cells, disrupting their daily structural plasticity. Lack of rhythmic signaling from pacemaker cells

Optimization of a Composite Wing Subject to Multi Constraints [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In this thesis, an investigation has been carried out into a minimum weight optimization analysis of a composite wing with multi design constraints under both static and dynamic loadings. The study includes the influence of a morphing leading edge on the

Free vibration of axially loaded composite beams using a four-unknown shear and normal deformation theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
This paper presents free vibration of composite beams under axial load using a four-unknown shear and normal deformation theory. The constitutive equation is reduced from the 3D stress-strain relations of orthotropic lamina.

Modelling stem cell differentiation related processes—A practical overview for biologists

open access: yesFEBS 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.

An integrated structural health monitoring approach to composite-based pipeline repair [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
One of the most common problems in the structural integrity of industrial pipelines is external corrosion. Composite materials have been accepted as a repair option to restore the original strength of the effected damaged section but the approach to ...
