Predication of novel ordered phases in Cu-Be system at ambient pressure: Crystal structures, electronic properties, and alloying mechanism

open access: yesResults in Physics
The crystal and electronic structures determine a material's physical and chemical properties. Here, using particle swarm optimization method and first-principles calculations, we conducted a systematically investigation on the ordered CuxBey alloys. Two

Mechanism and function of drosophila capa GPCR: a desiccation stress-responsive receptor with functional homology to human neuromedinU receptor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The capa peptide receptor, capaR (CG14575), is a G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) for the D. melanogaster capa neuropeptides, Drm-capa-1 and -2 (capa-1 and -2). To date, the capa peptide family constitutes the only known nitridergic peptides in insects,

Delivery and utilization of photo‐energy for temperature control using a light‐driven microfluidic control device at −40 °C

open access: yesSmartMat
Low‐temperature energy harvest, delivery, and utilization pose significant challenges for thermal management in extreme environments owing to heat loss during transport and difficulty in temperature control. Herein, we propose a light‐driven photo‐energy

A tissue kallikrein in the synovial fluid of patients with rheumatoid arthritis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
Tissue kallikrein is an enzyme that forms the vasoactive peptide kallidin from an endogenous substrate L-kininogen. Tissue kallikrein has been identified in joint fluids and in inflammatory infiltrates within synovial membranes.

Influence of the grain size and the fluid viscosity on the collapse of submerged sand columns

open access: yes, 2022
Granular flows are ubiquitous in natural phenomena and are also used in various industrial applications. Nonetheless, they exhibit counter-intuitive behaviour as well as complex rheological behaviour, making them challenging to fully understand and model.

Structural and dynamic functional controllability: shared variance between network control metrics limits attribution to distinct domains of intelligence

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience
IntroductionFluid and crystallized intelligence have recently been hypothesized to reflect the brain network’s capacity to facilitate transitions into hard-to-reach, high-energy states, measured via modal controllability, and easy-to-reach, low-energy ...
