Tidal Energy Dissipation [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1917
IN regard to my estimate of viscous dissipation of oceanic energy in its bearing on the slowing of the earth's rotation (Proc. Roy. Soc., A, 93, p. 348), I quite assent to Mr. Jeffreys's position (NATURE, vol. xcix., p. 405, July 19, 1917) that it is still open to doubt whether the viscosity of the ocean causes a very appreciable part of the earth's ...

Estimation of frictional damping of bolted plate structures by dynamic contact analysis

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2021
In mechanical structures where the components are joined by bolts, the vibration damping depends mainly on energy dissipation due to friction at the contact surfaces.

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

Specific Energy of Hard Coal Under Load

open access: yesStudia Geotechnica et Mechanica, 2015
The article presents results of experimental tests of energy parameters of hard coals under loading, collected from research sites located within five main geologic structures of Upper Silesian Coal Basin (GZW) - Main Trough, Main Anticline, Bytom Trough,

Molecular bases of circadian magnesium rhythms across eukaryotes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Circadian rhythms in intracellular [Mg2+] exist across eukaryotic kingdoms. Central roles for Mg2+ in metabolism suggest that Mg2+ rhythms could regulate daily cellular energy and metabolism. In this Perspective paper, we propose that ancestral prokaryotic transport proteins could be responsible for mediating Mg2+ rhythms and posit a feedback model ...

Dissipated Energy and Pore Pressure Generation Patterns in Sands and Non-Plastic Silts Subjected to Cyclic Loadings

open access: yesGeotechnics
The factors that influence dissipated energy and pore pressure generation patterns with respect to the cycle ratio and dissipated energy ratio were analyzed using the results of cyclic triaxial and cyclic direct simple shear tests.

A dissipated energy comparison to evaluate fatigue resistance using 2-point bending

open access: yesJournal of Traffic and Transportation Engineering (English ed. Online), 2014
Fatigue is the main failure mode in pavement engineering. Typically, micro-cracks originate at the bottom of asphalt concrete layer due to horizontal tensile strains.
