The Effective Design of Bean Bag as a Vibroimpact Damper
Shock and Vibration, 2000 The technique of a bean bag damper has been effectively applied in many engineering fields to control the vibroimpact of a structural system. In this study, the basic parameters responsible for the design of an effective bean bag: the size of beans, the ...

Optimizing Multidirectional Torsional Hysteretic Damper Specifications using Harmony Search [PDF]
Journal of Applied and Computational MechanicsMultidirectional torsional hysteretic damper is a new type of damper that can be used to isolate and dissipate seismic effects on a structure. It can be designed to have a controllable post-elastic stiffness and exhibit high levels of damping as well as ...

Investigation of a multilayer magnetorheological elastomer damper characteristics
Вестник Самарского университета: Аэрокосмическая техника, технологии и машиностроениеThe paper presents the design of a damper based on a multilayer magnetorheological elastomer that has high load capacity, up to 500 N. The damper is able to operate in all vibration control modes, depending on its control signal.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.We first identified functional murine mitochondrial N‐formyl peptides (MT‐FPs) and investigated their effects on the in vitro myeloid‐derived suppressor cell (MDSC) generation from bone marrow cells. We demonstrated that MT‐FPs acted directly on bone marrow cells to promote MDSC generation and modulated the polymorphonuclear (PMN)‐MDSC/monocyte (M ...
