Crack tip fields in a fiber-reinforced hyperelastic sheet: Competing roles of fiber and matrix stiffening [PDF]
Fiber-reinforced materials are widely observed in biological tissue such as human arteries and tendons. Characterizing the influence of fibers on crack-tip fields in such nonlinear materials undergoing large deformation is an important precursor to ...

Identification of the plastic zone using digital image correlation [PDF]
In this paper Digital Image Correlation (DIC) is used to study the evolution of the plastic zone close to a crack tip. A modified CT-specimen was used in order to fulfill the plane stress condition.

Mode I and Mode II Crack Tip Asymptotic Fields with Strain Gradient Effects [PDF]
The strain gradient effect becomes significant when the size of fracture process zone around a crack tip is comparable to the intrinsic material length l, typically of the order of microns.

Characterisation of crack tip fields under non-uniform fatigue loading [PDF]
The paper analyses previously reported work, which uses digital image correlation to measure fatigue crack closure. As well as determining crack opening loads, the information on crack shape may be used to estimate the stress intensity factor, as well as

Effect of T‐Stress on Crack‐Tip Stress Field and Crack Propagation of Concrete
In order to predict the fracture toughness and propagation of the mixed mode fracture of concrete, the modified MTS (maximum tangential stress) criterion combined with T‐stress was presented. The modified MTS criterion uses a two‐parameter model (stress intensity factor K and T‐stress) to describe the concrete’s fracture.

Oncogenic DMTF1β promotes cancer cell motility by regulating autophagy through ULK1 stabilization
In the current study, we demonstrate that the oncogene DMTF1β regulates ULK1 stability by reducing its proteasomal degradation in cancer cells. This stabilization enables ULK1 to induce autophagy, which in turn facilitates cancer cell migration. Consequently, reduced DMTF1β levels lead to decreased autophagy and impaired cancer cell migration.

Multiparametric presentation of the crack-tip fields in the vicinity of longitudinal shear crack
The article is devoted to the study of the stress field at the tip of a longitudinal shear crack based on a multiparametric asymptotic representation of the stress field at the crack tip in a linearly elastic isotropic material.

Single‐molecule DNA flow‐stretch assays for high‐throughput DNA–protein interaction studies
We describe an optimised single‐molecule DNA flow‐stretch assay that visualises DNA–protein interactions in real time. Linear DNA fragments are tethered to a surface and stretched by buffer flow for fluorescence imaging. Using λ and φX174 DNA, this protocol enhances reproducibility and accessibility, providing a versatile approach for studying diverse ...

Optimizing photoactivation of PA‐mCherry for optical pooled CRISPR screens
Photoactivatable PA‐mCherry finds widespread use to optically tag individual cells. However, confocal 405 nm UV laser‐scanning (normal scan) is much less efficient than widefield UV illumination, limiting the use of PA‐mCherry on confocal instruments. We remedy this limitation by reporting that rapid and repeated confocal scanning with a low‐intensity,
