Membrane Wrapping for High Capacity and Rapidly Switchable Adhesives

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A membrane‐wrapping mechanism enables high‐capacity, rapidly switchable adhesion by coupling suction, friction, and adhesion. Broadband performance is achieved in dry and underwater conditions, allowing fast, reversible manipulation of objects of diverse sizes and shapes, from delicate eggs and berries to flat, complex, or heavy objects. These outcomes

LL‐37 Driven Phase Transition and Stacking in Oligolamellar Gram‐Negative Bacterial Membrane Models

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work establishes oligolamellar bacterial membrane models to investigate how LL‐37 disrupts the complex dual‐bilayer architecture of Gram‐negative bacteria. Combining SAXS, cryo‐TEM, electrophoretic mobility measurements, and coarse‐grained simulations, it reveals cardiolipin‐driven phase transitions leading to bicelle‐like structures and membrane ...

Deflationist Caprice: “Imperfections” in the Sculpture of Leon Podsiadły

open access: yesArts, 2021
This article is an attempt to define the ambiguous specificity of artistic deflation in the sculpture of the Wroclavian artist Leon Podsiadły. At the outset, the author describes the principle of deflationist art and proposes a method of approach.

Good deflation/bad deflation and Japanese economic recovery [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Economics and Economic Policy, 2005
Many economists dismiss the role of positive supply shocks as a cause of Japan’s deflation. Indeed, they sometimes attribute the long delay in Japan’s recovery to the mistaken view that Japan’s deflation reflects an acceleration of technological progress.

Inflation–Deflation Test [PDF]

open access: yesIndian Journal of Otolaryngology and Head & Neck Surgery, 2011
Editor, I read the recent publication by Kurien et al with a great interest [1]. Kurien et al studied the diagnostic properties of inflation–deflation test for eustachian tube patency [1]. Kurien et al reached the conclusion that “The eustachian tube inflation–deflation test is a sensitive test for predicting aditus patency in patients with dry ears ...
