D-type fiber-base duality

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018
M5 branes probing D-type singularities give rise to 6d (1,0) SCFTs with SO × SO flavor symmetry known as D-type conformal matter theories. Gauging the diagonal SO-flavor symmetry leads to a little string theory with an intrinsic scale which can be ...

Active Corrosion Protection of Sintered AA7075 Aluminum Alloy via Mn Powder Addition

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
AA7075 containing Mn‐rich particles is fabricated via spark plasma sintering using AA7075 and Mn powders. Corrosion resistance is evaluated through dip‐and‐dry tests using 0.1 M NaCl (pH 6.0), and mass loss decreases with increasing Mn addition. Mn‐rich particles function as a source of Mn ions, and formation of Mn‐accumulation films on Cu‐containing ...

NFATc1 controls skeletal muscle fiber type and is a negative regulator of MyoD activity

Cell Reports, 2014
SUMMARY Skeletal muscle comprises a heterogeneous population of fibers with important physiological differences. Fast fibers are glycolytic and fatigue rapidly. Slow fibers utilize oxidative metabolism and are fatigue-resistant.

Continuous Stiffness Graded Metal–Ceramic Femoral Stems: UMAT‐Based Design and Finite Element Assessment

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Functionally graded metal–ceramic femoral stems are engineered through continuous UMAT‐based stiffness tailoring, eliminating discrete material interfaces while enhancing biomechanical compatibility. Low‐index power‐law gradation optimizes load transfer, reduces stress shielding, and controls implant–bone micromotion, highlighting a materials‐design ...

Thyroid hormone regulates muscle fiber type conversion via miR-133a1

Journal of Cell Biology, 2014
Thyroid hormone promotes slow-to-fast muscle fiber type conversion by inducing miR-133a1 and thereby repressing the expression of the slow muscle determinant TEAD1.

Additive Manufacturing of Alumina‐Reinforced Elastomers

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Vat‐photopolymerized elastomers reinforced with platelet‐shaped alumina exhibited preferential orientation, reduced porosity, and significantly enhanced mechanical performance. A 3 wt% platelet loading increased tensile strength from 12.4 to 45.7 MPa, highlighting the critical role of filler morphology in elastomeric VPP composites.

Skeletal muscle‐specific PGC‐1α‐b overexpression prevents eccentric contraction‐induced muscle injury through an utrophin‐independent pathway in mice

Physiological Reports
Slower oxidative fibers are more resistant to eccentric contraction (ECC)‐induced muscle damage than fast‐twitch glycolytic fibers, but the mechanisms remain unclear. This study investigated the roles of the exercise‐inducible PGC‐1α isoform PGC‐1α‐b and

Enhancing Fatigue Crack Growth Resistance in Heterostructured Aluminum Bimetals by Tailored Interface Design

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Different Al/Al bimetals with a single engineered interface reveal how mechanical mismatch governs fatigue crack growth under cyclic loading. Additionally, loading–unloading–reloading tests link the microyielding behavior to the fatigue crack growth resistance, while crack‐path analysis reveals toughening mechanisms at the interface, highlighting ...
