Rockburst Identification Method Based on Energy Storage Limit of Surrounding Rock

open access: yesEnergies, 2020
Rockbursts are one of the prominent problems faced by deep underground engineering. Not only do they affect the construction progress, but they also threaten the safety of construction personnel and equipment, and may even induce earthquakes.

Mixed Finite Element Computation of Energy Release Rate in Anisotropic Materials Based on Virtual Crack Closure-Integral Method

open access: yesFracture and Structural Integrity, 2021
The material with anisotropic properties are becoming widely essential due to the ease to manipulate their mechanical properties to obtain a particular quality, insure safety or a specific behavior.

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

Evaluation of detailed transverse crack propagation toward thickness direction for CF/PEEK quasi-isotropic laminates under fatigue loading

open access: yesMechanical Engineering Journal, 2020
Carbon fiber (CF) reinforced polyether ether ketone (PEEK) laminates are applied to the members of transportation structures exposed to severe conditions, because carbon fibers and PEEK have excellent heat-resistant and chemical stability.

Releasing chemical energy in spatially programmed ferroelectrics

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Chemical energy ferroelectrics show limited control of the energy release rate. Here, the authors design spatially programmed energetic ferroelectrics with controlled energy release rates from machine learning-directed additive manufacturing and ice ...

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

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
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.

Determination of Energy Release Rate Through Sequential Crack Extension

open access: yes, 2017
A method to determine the critical energy release rate of a peel tested sample using an energy-based approach within a finite element framework is developed. The method uses a single finite element model, in which the external work, elastic strain energy,

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.
