Experimental Investigation of Aerodynamics of Feather-Covered Flapping Wing

open access: yesApplied Bionics and Biomechanics, 2017
Avian flight has an outstanding performance than the manmade flapping wing MAVs. Considering that the feather is light and strong, a new type of the flapping wing was designed and made, whose skeleton is carbon fiber rods and covered by goose feathers as

Metastatic niche shaped by host factors influences disseminated cancer cell fate

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Metastasis is shaped not only by cancer cells but also by the environments they encounter. This review explores how factors such as aging, diet, the microbiome, lifestyle, and environmental exposures remodel organ‐specific niches in the lung, liver, bone, and brain, influencing where metastatic cells survive, remain dormant, or grow, and ultimately ...

Simulation of Tail Boom Vibrations Using Main Rotor-Fuselage Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2017
In this work, fully-resolved rotor-fuselage interactional aerodynamics is used as the forcing term in a model based on the Euler-Bernoulli equation, aiming to simulate helicopter tail-boom vibration.

Going viral − Virus‐targeting nanobodies for research, diagnostics and therapy

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The increasing prevalence of viral diseases represents a major threat for global human health. Nanobodies, small binding fragments derived from camelid heavy‐chain antibodies, offer versatile tools for viral research, diagnostics, and antiviral therapy.

Analytical Modeling of Shrouded Rotors in Hover with Experimental and Computational Validation

open access: yesActuators
Rotors have been utilized for aircraft propulsion since the dawn of aviation, but their performance can degrade significantly if not properly designed. This study focuses on developing an accurate design tool and model validation for shrouded rotors.

The role of miR‐335‐5p in the redifferentiation of BRAF p.V600E thyroid cancers

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The BRAF p.V600E mutation promotes thyroid cancer dedifferentiation and radioiodine resistance. Using a network approach, we identified miR‐335‐5p as a key regulator of BRAF‐mutated thyroid tumors. Restoring miR‐335‐5p increased thyroid‐specific gene expression and iodine uptake in cells and organoids.

Experimental Investigation of the Aerodynamics and Aeroelasticity of Flapping, Plunging and Pitching Wings

open access: yes, 2012
This thesis concerns the experimental analysis of the aerodynamics and aeroelasticity of oscillating wings. It is divided into two sections, an investigation of wings undergoing imposed root flapping and pitching motion, such as seen in avian flight and ...

Numerical and Experimental Characterization of a Coanda-Type Industrial Air Amplifier

open access: yesApplied Sciences
The performance of an industrial air amplifier is assessed through experimental and numerical characterization, with a focus on examining the influence of various operating conditions (isolated, “blowing,” and “suction” modes) and direct geometric ...
