Torsional Behavior of Pylon Columns with Edge Cracks in Suspension Bridges Under Wind Loads

open access: yesBuildings
Cracks inevitably develop in the pylon structures of suspension bridges due to external forces such as wind loads. Cracks are a primary cause of torsional damage to the key supporting structures of suspension bridges.

Calculation methods analysis of cracked reinforced concrete bending elements curvatures / Supleišėjusių lenkiamųjų gelžbetoninių elementų kreivių skaičiavimo metodų analizė

open access: yesMokslas: Lietuvos Ateitis, 2011
This paper describes three methods of curvatures calculating, which are used in STR, EC2 and EMM. Describes, what influence for the average curvature of cracked elements have cracked and uncracked sections in the different methodologies.

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Concrete crack analysis using a deep belief convolutional neural network [PDF]

open access: yesGrađevinski Materijali i Konstrukcije
The assessment of surface cracks in concrete structures plays a pivotal role in determining structural integrity. However, current diagnostic technologies suffer from drawbacks such as being time-consuming, subjective, and reliant on inspectors ...

Cell wall target fragment discovery using a low‐cost, minimal fragment library

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
LoCoFrag100 is a fragment library made up of 100 different compounds. Similarity between the fragments is minimized and 10 different fragments are mixed into a single cocktail, which is soaked to protein crystals. These crystals are analysed by X‐ray crystallography, revealing the binding modes of the bound fragment ligands.

Road Crack Detection Using Deep Convolutional Neural Network and Adaptive Thresholding

open access: yes, 2019
Crack is one of the most common road distresses which may pose road safety hazards. Generally, crack detection is performed by either certified inspectors or structural engineers. This task is, however, time-consuming, subjective and labor-intensive.

Evolution of anodic stress corrosion cracking in a coated material [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In the present paper, we investigate the influence of corrosion driving forces and interfacial toughness for a coated material subjected to mechanical loading. If the protective coating is cracked, the substrate material may become exposed to a corrosive

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
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 ...
