The Effects of Breathing Behaviour on Crack Growth of a Vibrating Beam
Shock and Vibration, 2018 The effects of breathing behaviour on the dynamic response and crack growth are studied through a cracked cantilever beam. The main goal is to reveal the coupling mechanism of dynamic response and crack growth by employing a plain single-degree-of ...

Experimental and simulation study on Ⅰ-Ⅱ mixed-mode fatigue crack growth of TC4-DT welded joint
Journal of Aeronautical Materials, 2020 The crack growth in the structure shows the complex Ⅰ-Ⅱ mixed-mode under the combined tensile and shear fatigue loading. It is of great significance to understand its growth law for evaluating the fatigue life of structures accurately.

Assessment of crack growth development in main pipeline on the basis of elastoplastic model [PDF]
Омский научный вестник, 2019 A method for predicting the growth of surface cracks in the wall of the main pipeline under action of operational loads is proposed. The elastoplastic model of surface crack growth under biaxial loading is described on the example of steel 20.

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Microstructural modelling of creep crack growth from a blunted crack [PDF]
, 1998 The effect of crack tip blunting on the initial stages of creep crack growth is investigated by means of a planar microstructural model in which grains are represented discretely. The actual linking-up process of discrete microcracks with the macroscopic

An isoform of 14‐3‐3 protein regulates transbilayer lipid movement at the plasma membrane
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Loss of 14‐3‐3ζ in CHO cells confers resistance to exogenous phosphatidylserine (PS) and impairs endocytosis‐independent inward flip‐flop of fluorescent PS at the plasma membrane. RNAi‐mediated knockdown reproduces this defect, while no additive effect is seen in ATP11C‐deficient cells.

Some practical crack path examples [PDF]
Fracture and Structural Integrity, 2007 It is well known that many engineering structures and components, as well as consumer items, contain cracks or crack-like flaws. It is widely recognised that crack growth must be considered both in designand in the analysis of failures.
