Application of Buoyancy Support System to Secure Residual Buoyancy of Damaged Ships
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 SOLAS (Safety of Life at Sea), which was first enacted in 1914 as a result of the Titanic disaster, presents mandatory requirements for ship safety, such as the adoption of watertight bulkheads.

Cell aging preserves cellular immortality in the presence of lethal levels of damage. [PDF]
, 2019 Cellular aging, a progressive functional decline driven by damage accumulation, often culminates in the mortality of a cell lineage. Certain lineages, however, are able to sustain long-lasting immortality, as prominently exemplified by stem cells.

Mitochondrial damage checkpoint in apoptosis and genome stability [PDF]
FEMS Yeast Research, 2004 Mitochondria perform multiple cellular functions including energy production, cell proliferation and apoptosis. Studies described in this paper suggest a role for mitochondria in maintaining genomic stability. Genomic stability appears to be dependent on mitochondrial functions involved in maintenance of proper intracellular redox status, ATP-dependent

Risks from low dose/dose rate radiation: what an understanding of DNA damage response mechanisms can tell us [PDF]
, 2009 The DNA damage response (DDR) mechanisms represent a vital line of defense against exogenous and endogenous DNA damage to enhance two distinct outcomes, survival and the maintenance of genomic stability. The latter is critical for cancer avoidance.

UV-triggered p21 degradation facilitates damaged-DNA replication and preserves genomic stability
Nucleic Acids Research, 2013 Although many genotoxic treatments upregulate the cyclin kinase inhibitor p21, agents such as UV irradiation trigger p21 degradation. This suggests that p21 blocks a process relevant for the cellular response to UV.

Smoothness dependent stability in corrosion detection
, 2014 We consider the stability issue for the determination of a linear corrosion in a conductor by a single electrostatic measurement. We established a global log-log type stability when the corroded boundary is simply Lipschitz. We also improve such a result

Vibration and buckling of open TWBs with local weakening [PDF]
, 2017 Free vibration and Ljapounov stability of compressed open thin-walled beams with a cross-section reduction are studied by a in-house finite differences numerical code, based on a refined direct beam model and allowing for investigating elastic stability ...
