Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties
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.

Direct Numerical Simulation Tests of Eddy Viscosity in Two Dimensions
Two-parametric eddy viscosity (TPEV) and other spectral characteristics of two-dimensional (2D) turbulence in the energy transfer sub-range are calculated from direct numerical simulation (DNS) with 512$^2$ resolution. The DNS-based TPEV is compared with

Continuous Growth of Droplet Size Variance due to Condensation in Turbulent Clouds [PDF]
We use a stochastic model and direct numerical simulation to study the impact of turbulence on cloud droplet growth by condensation. We show that the variance of the droplet size distribution increases in time as t^{1/2}, with growth rate proportional to

This study reveals a unique active site enriched in methionine residues and demonstrates that these residues play a critical role by stabilizing carbocation intermediates through novel sulfur–cation interactions. Structure‐guided mutagenesis further revealed variants with significantly altered product profiles, enhancing pseudopterosin formation. These

Turbulent Channel Flow: Direct Numerical Simulation-Data-Driven Modeling
Data obtained using direct numerical simulations (DNS) of pressure-driven turbulent channel flow are studied in the range 180 ≤Reτ≤ 10,000. Reynolds number effects on the mean velocity profile (MVP) and second order statistics are analyzed with a view of

Laminar–Turbulent Intermittency in Annular Couette–Poiseuille Flow: Whether a Puff Splits or Not
Direct numerical simulations were carried out with an emphasis on the intermittency and localized turbulence structure occurring within the subcritical transitional regime of a concentric annular Couette–Poiseuille flow.

In-service weld repair by direct deposition: Numerical simulation and experimental validation
In-Service Welding is a technological process for which interconnection and repair of pipelines can be made while they are in operation, before making it two main risks need to be assessed: hydrogen cracking and burn-through.
