Role of Genome in the Formation of Conical Retroviral Shells
, 2016 Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) capsid proteins spontaneously assemble around the genome into a protective protein shell called the capsid, which can take on a variety of shapes broadly classified as conical, cylindrical and irregular. The majority of

Response of a liquid bridge to an acceleration varying sinusoidally with time [PDF]
, 1996 The response of a long cylindrical liquid column subjected to an axial microgravity field has been experimentally studied on a TEXUS sounding rocket flight to check with theoretical predictions.

Effect of the shape of the cuff on blood pressure measurement in people with large arms
Blood Pressure, 2020 Purpose: Previous data suggest that tronco-conical cuffs should be used for accurate blood pressure (BP) measurement in the obese. However, not only arm size but also its shape may affect the accuracy of BP measurement when a cylindrical cuff is used ...

Projectile-shape dependence of impact craters in loose granular media
, 2003 We report on the penetration of cylindrical projectiles dropped from rest into a dry, noncohesive granular medium. The cylinder length, diameter, density, and tip shape are all explicitly varied.

Phase separation and folding in swelled nematoelastic films
, 2017 We explore reshaping of nematoelastic films upon imbibing an isotropic solvent under conditions when isotropic and nematic phases coexist. The structure of the interphase boundary is computed taken into account the optimal nematic orientation governed by

Adaptive lenticular lens array using a hybrid liquid crystal–carbon nanotube nanophotonic device [PDF]
, 2011 We present a switchable liquid crystal cylindrical lens array fabricated with a combination of a sparse electrode array of multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) grown upon a silicon substrate, and a second glass substrate featuring an in-plane switching ...

The century-old picture of a nerve spike is wrong: filaments fire, before membrane
Communicative & Integrative Biology, 2022 In 1907, Lapicque proposed that an electric field passes through the neuronal membrane and transmits a signal. Subsequently, a “snake curve” or spike was used to depict the means by which a linear flat current undergoes a sudden Gaussian or Laplacian ...

Cylindrically symmetric wormholes
, 2005 This paper discusses traversable wormholes that differ slightly but significantly from those of the Morris-Thorne type under the assumption of cylindrical symmetry.

The shape of a flexible polymer in a cylindrical pore [PDF]
, 2005 We calculate the mean end-to-end distance R of a self-avoiding polymer encapsulated in an infinitely long cylinder with radius D. A self-consistent perturbation theory is used to calculate R as a function of D for impenetrable hard walls and soft walls ...

A comparison between cylindrical and cross-shaped magnetic vibration isolators: ideal and practical
Archives of Electrical Engineering, 2015 In this paper a cross-shaped isolator consisting of cuboidal magnets and a cylindrical isolator are compared by resonance frequency to volume ratio and shape. Both isolators are capable of obtaining a low resonance frequency, i.e. 0.15 Hz and 0.01 Hz for
