On Two Approaches to Slope Stability Reliability Assessments Using the Random Finite Element Method

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
The random finite element method has been increasingly used in the geotechnical community to investigate the influence of soil spatial variability and to bridge the gap between a traditional design and a reliability-based design. There are two approaches

Lubrication and failure mechanisms of molybdenum disulfide films. 2: Effect of substrate roughness [PDF]

open access: yes
An optical microscope was used to study the lubrication and failure mechanisms of rubbed MoS2 films applied to three substrate surface finishes; polished, sanded, and sandblasted as a function of sliding distance.

Creep rupture of materials: insights from a fiber bundle model with relaxation

open access: yes, 2010
I adapted a model recently introduced in the context of seismic phenomena, to study creep rupture of materials. It consists of linear elastic fibers that interact in an equal load sharing scheme, complemented with a local viscoelastic relaxation ...

Leave-one-out prediction error of systolic arterial pressure time series under paced breathing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
In this paper we show that different physiological states and pathological conditions may be characterized in terms of predictability of time series signals from the underlying biological system.

Linking neurogenesis, oligodendrogenesis, and myelination defects to neurodevelopmental disruption in primary mitochondrial disorders

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mitochondrial remodeling shapes neural and glial lineage progression by matching metabolic supply with demand. Elevated OXPHOS supports differentiation and myelin formation, while myelin compaction lowers mitochondrial dependence, revealing mitochondria as key drivers of developmental energy adaptation.

Large-scale triaxial tests and modelling mechanical behaviors of soil-rockfill materials for a mine tailings dam

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2018
Based on the preliminarily designed construction plan of a soil-rockfill dam for Longwangding tailing dam project in Shaxi Copper Mine, the soil-rockfill materials with three different stone contents (5%, 15% and 30%) are compounded.

Consensus using Asynchronous Failure Detectors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The FLP result shows that crash-tolerant consensus is impossible to solve in asynchronous systems, and several solutions have been proposed for crash-tolerant consensus under alternative (stronger) models.

Mechanisms of acute renal failure

open access: yesBritish Journal of Anaesthesia, 1996
Acute renal failure can be defined as an abrupt decline in renal function with a decrease in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) resulting in the retention of nitrogenous waste products. Acute renal failure has conventionally been classified as (a) prerenal failure, denoting a disorder in the systemic circulation that causes renal hypoperfusion.

The ubiquitin ligase RNF115 is required for the clearance of damaged lysosomes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Upon lysosomal rupture, an E3 ubiquitin ligase RNF115 translocates from the cytosol to the damaged lysosomal membrane. Moreover, RNF115 depletion impairs the clearance of damaged lysosomes, identifying it as a key regulator of lysosomal quality control.

Mechanical Unloading in Heart Failure

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 2018
Myocardial injury induces significant changes in ventricular structure and function at both the cellular and anatomic level, leading to ventricular remodeling and subsequent heart failure. Unloading left ventricular pressure has been studied in both the short-term and long-term settings, as a means of preventing or reversing cardiac remodeling.
