Tracer Dispersion in a Self-Organized Critical System

open access: yes, 1996
We have studied experimentally transport properties in a slowly driven granular system which recently was shown to display self-organized criticality [Frette {\em et al., Nature} {\bf 379}, 49 (1996)].

Measurement of ground motion near piles during driving [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Two types of vibration damage caused by driving piles have been reported in the literature: direct structural damage and damage due to settlement.

Revealing the structure of land plant photosystem II: the journey from negative‐stain EM to cryo‐EM

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Advances in cryo‐EM have revealed the detailed structure of Photosystem II, a key protein complex driving photosynthesis. This review traces the journey from early low‐resolution images to high‐resolution models, highlighting how these discoveries deepen our understanding of light harvesting and energy conversion in plants.

Sustainable slow maintained pile load test [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Slow maintained load test is widely used by contractors in Malaysia to ensure the driven pile could accommodate the design load of the structure. Slow maintained load test is a test to determine load-settlement curve and pile capacity for a period of ...

Memory of the Unjamming Transition during Cyclic Tiltings of a Granular Pile [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Discrete numerical simulations are performed to study the evolution of the micro-structure and the response of a granular packing during successive loading-unloading cycles, consisting of quasi-static rotations in the gravity field between opposite ...

In situ molecular organization and heterogeneity of the Legionella Dot/Icm T4SS

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present a nearly complete in situ model of the Legionella Dot/Icm type IV secretion system, revealing its central secretion channel and identifying new components. Using cryo‐electron tomography with AI‐based modeling, our work highlights the structure, variability, and mechanism of this complex nanomachine, advancing understanding of bacterial ...

Cell wall target fragment discovery using a low‐cost, minimal fragment library

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
LoCoFrag100 is a fragment library made up of 100 different compounds. Similarity between the fragments is minimized and 10 different fragments are mixed into a single cocktail, which is soaked to protein crystals. These crystals are analysed by X‐ray crystallography, revealing the binding modes of the bound fragment ligands.

Pile group settlement analysis on the basis of Static Load Test [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2019
Settlement of large pile groups is most often estimated by the Alternative Foundation Method. However, this method has some limitations related to assumed uniformity of pile loads.

Onset of criticality and transport in a driven diffusive system

open access: yes, 1997
We study transport properties in a slowly driven diffusive system where the transport is externally controlled by a parameter $p$.

Reducing driving forces for pressed-in piles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Pile jacking techniques use static loading to install sheet piles with minimal environmental effects, such as noise and ground vibrations, which are often associated with other methods of driven piling.
