A Study of Concrete Slab Damage Detection Based on the Electromechanical Impedance Method
Sensors, 2014 Piezoelectric lead zirconate titanate (PZT) is being gradually applied into practice as a new intelligent material for structural health monitoring. In order to study the damage detection properties of PZT on concrete slabs, simply supported reinforced ...

Comparison of Damage Indexes for Assessing Seismic Fragility of Bearings in an Offshore Bridge
Applied Sciences, 2023 This study analyzes the applicability of different damage indexes for bearings, focusing on the time-dependent deterioration of materials and the time-dependent bond-slip behavior between steel and concrete caused by chloride erosion.

Damage Identification by the Kullback-Leibler Divergence and Hybrid Damage Index [PDF]
Shock and Vibration, 2014 The hybrid damage index (HDI) is presented as a mean for the damage identification in this paper, which is on the basis of the Kullback-Leibler divergence (KLD) and its approximations. The proposed method is suitable for detecting damage in one-dimensional structure and delamination in laminated composite.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Hyperosmotic stress induces PARP1‐mediated HPF1‐dependent mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Sorbitol‐induced hyperosmotic stress rapidly induces reversible mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation (MARylation) on PARP1 without the signs of genotoxic signaling. We show that PARP1 autoMARylation is HPF1 dependent and forms hydroxylamine‐resistant O‐glycosidic linkages.

Analysis of the Effect of Mainshock-Aftershock Sequences on the Fragility of RC Bridge Columns
Buildings, 2022 The mainshock (MS) is often accompanied by a number of aftershocks (AS). The existence of AS may cause the seismic demand to be greater than the MS. In order to better evaluate the impact of AS, this paper takes RC columns as the research object and ...

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.

Seismic Damage Estimation Index for Service Lines
IEEJ Transactions on Electronics, Information and Systems, 2011 AbstractThe purpose of this paper is to propose a new index for the seismic damage estimation of service lines. The proposed index is based on the tension of each service line due to an earthquake event. Because the tension is evaluated using not only the seismic intensity, but also the dynamic properties of the major components of the distribution ...
