Requirement of a Membrane Potential for the Posttranslational Transfer of Proteins into Mitochondsria [PDF]

open access: yes, 1982
Posttranslational transfer of most precursor proteins into mitochondria is dependent on energization of the mitochondria. Experiments were carried out to determine whether the membrane potential or the intramitochondrial ATP is the immediate energy ...

Optimization of a Non-Traditional Vibration Absorber for Vibration Suppression and Energy Harvesting

open access: yesVibration, 2022
This paper investigates the optimization of a non-traditional vibration absorber for simultaneous vibration suppression and energy harvesting. Unlike a traditional vibration absorber, the non-traditional vibration absorber has its damper connected ...

Full distribution of work done on a quantum system for arbitrary initial states

open access: yes, 2015
We propose a novel approach to define and measure the statistics of work, internal energy and dissipated heat in a driven quantum system. In our framework the presence of a physical detector arises naturally and work and its statistics can be ...

Global vs local energy dissipation: the energy cycle of the turbulent von K\'arm\'an flow [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In this paper, we investigate the relations between global and local energy transfers in a turbulent von K\'arm\'an flow. The goal is to understand how and where energy is dissipated in such a flow and to reconstruct the energy cycle in an experimental ...

Impact of microstructure, temperature and strain ratio on energy-based low- cycle fatigue life prediction models for TiAl alloys

open access: yes, 2012
In this paper, two fatigue lifetime prediction models are tested on TiAl intermetallic using results from uniaxial low-cycle fatigue tests. Both assessments are based on dissipated energy but one of them considers a hydrostatic pressure correction.

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 ...

Using an electro-mechanical system to investigate the influence of the fatigue on the energy dissipated per cycle due to the hysteresis damping

open access: yesVietnam Journal of Mechanics, 2004
The energy dissipated per cycle due to the hysteresis damping is one of the criteria for determining the vibration system. The experimental results reveal that the energy dissipated per cycle increases versus the cycles to fatigue of the rotating-beam ...

Energy Dissipation in Magnetic Islands Formed during Magnetic Reconnection

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Magnetic reconnection converts magnetic energy into particle kinetic energy, and satellite observations have shown that 20%–50% of magnetic energy is channeled into electron kinetic energy.

Well-posedness of the Ericksen-Leslie system

open access: yes, 2012
In this paper, we prove the local well-posedness of the Ericksen-Leslie system, and the global well-posednss for small initial data under the physical constrain condition on the Leslie coefficients, which ensures that the energy of the system is ...
