Towards a methodology for the practical applications of the EIFS (Equivalent Initial Flaw Size) concept

open access: yesLatin American Journal of Solids and Structures
This work intends to introduce a probabilistic approach for the crack propagation analysis. It presents a methodology that is based on the distribution of the initial flaw size a0.

Analysis of the Thermomechanical Fatigue Behavior of Fully Ferritic High Chromium Steel Crofer®22 H with Cyclic Indentation Testing

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
The 22 wt.% Cr, fully ferritic stainless steel Crofer®22 H has higher thermomechanical fatigue (TMF)- lifetime compared to advanced ferritic-martensitic P91, which is assumed to be caused by different damage tolerance, leading to differences in crack ...

Damage Tolerant Active Contro l: Concept and State of the Art [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Damage tolerant active control is a new research area relating to fault tolerant control design applied to mechanical structures. It encompasses several techniques already used to design controllers and to detect and to diagnose faults, as well to ...

A comparison of hydroponic and soil-based screening methods to identify salt tolerance in the field in barley [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Success in breeding crops for yield and other quantitative traits depends on the use of methods to evaluate genotypes accurately under field conditions. Although many screening criteria have been suggested to distinguish between genotypes for their salt ...

Network divergence analysis identifies adaptive gene modules and two orthogonal vulnerability axes in pancreatic cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Tumors contain diverse cellular states whose behavior is shaped by context‐dependent gene coordination. By comparing gene–gene relationships across biological contexts, we identify adaptive transcriptional modules that reorganize into distinct vulnerability axes.

Fatigue, Fracture, and Damage Tolerance of Ultrahigh-Strength Martensitic Tendon-Rods for Structural Engineering

open access: yesApplied Sciences
The paper addresses the fatigue resistance, fracture behavior, and damage tolerance of a new type of ultrahigh-strength bar for prestressing concrete made of a low-alloy lath martensitic steel. The fracture tests show that the bar steel has a medium-high

Mitochondrial DNA repair and damage tolerance

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience, 2017
The accurate maintenance of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is required in order for eukaryotic cells to assemble a functional electron transport chain. This independently-maintained genome relies on nuclear-encoded proteins that are imported into the mitochondria to carry out replication and repair processes.

Keratin 19 as a prognostic marker and contributing factor of metastasis and chemoresistance in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Keratin 19 (KRT19) is overexpressed in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer with high levels of Kallikrein‐related peptidases (KLK) 4–7 and is associated with poor survival. In vivo analyses demonstrate that elevated KRT19 increases peritoneal tumour burden.

Core crush criterion to determine the strength of sandwich composite structures subjected to compression after impact [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In this study a core crush criterion is proposed to determine the residual strength of impacted sandwich structures. The core of the sandwich is made of a Nomex Honeycomb core and the faces are laminated and remain thin.

Somatic mutational landscape in von Hippel–Lindau familial hemangioblastoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The causes of central nervous system (CNS) hemangioblastoma in Von Hippel–Lindau (vHL) disease are unclear. We used Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) on familial hemangioblastoma to investigate events that underlie tumor development. Our findings suggest that VHL loss creates a permissive environment for tumor formation, while additional alterations ...
