Structural biology of ferritin nanocages
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Effect of Crack Closure on Permeability in Abutment Pressure Area
The mechanical model of crack closure was established, and the zone of crack closure was calculated combining with the abutment pressure formula.

Crack closure and retardation effects – experiments and modelling
Abstract The design of cyclically loaded components is in many cases carried out on the basis of experiments on small-scale laboratory specimens. In this approach, many effects such as load ratio, residual stresses and short crack growth are taken into account and described in a computational crack growth model.

Partial crack closure under block loading [PDF]
Fatigue crack propagation tests under high-low and low-high block loading sequences have been performed in aluminium alloy specimens. The tests were carried out at constant [Delta]K conditions. Two stress ratios were analysed: R = 0.05 and R = 0.4. Crack

Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Environmentally-assisted Fatigue Crack Growth in AA7050-T73511 Al Alloy and AA2050-T84 Al-Cu-Li Alloy [PDF]
The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the effect of low temperature and saline environment on the fatigue crack growth behavior of the AA7050-T7451 Al alloy and the recently developed AA2050-T Al-Cu-Li alloy.

Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo
We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.

Numerical Simulation of the Effect of Pre-Strain on Fatigue Crack Growth in AA2024-T351
The objective here is to study the effect of pre-strain on fatigue crack growth (FCG) in 2024-T351 aluminum alloy. Three pre-strain conditions were considered: without pre-strain, compressive and tensile permanent pre-strains of 4%.

A Numerical Study of the Effect of Isotropic Hardening Parameters on Mode I Fatigue Crack Growth
The consideration of plastic crack tip opening displacement (CTOD, δp), as a crack driving force has given us the opportunity to predict fatigue crack growth (FCG) rate numerically, and, therefore, to develop parametric studies focused on the effect
