The Influence of the Flooding Damaged Compartment on the Metacentric Height Ship Type 888 [PDF]
TransNav, 2010 Research on damage stability and unsinkability is a valuable source of knowledge of behaving a ship while flooding its compartments. In the paper, a short description of accidents and damages of Polish warships taking place in 1985-2004 is presented. The

Dynamic stability analysis with nonlocal damage [PDF]
Computers & Structures, 1988 Abstract The classic localization instability analysis for strain-softening materials is expanded to dynamic solutions. The nonlocal continuum with local strain, which ensures proper convergence of finite element calculations and physically realistic solutions, is adopted in its simplified form, the nonlocal damage model.

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Stress redistribution in flat damaged trusses [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2019 An important problem of modern engineering is to ensure the stability of buildings to a progressive collapse. One of the options for making calculations is to perform a static calculation with the use of the dynamic coefficient.

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.

Damage stability of passenger ships : smart methods to identify critical scenarios [PDF]
, 2021 The damaged stability assessment for a passenger ship is a process requiring the simulation of multiple damage scenarios. Nevertheless, due to the stochastic nature of both the damage stability framework and the irregular waves environment, a ...
