A Simplified Laminar Flow Model for the Pultrusion of Glass Fiber/Polyethylene Terephthalate Commingled Yarns

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A simplified thermoplastic pultrusion model is developed to predict thermal fields in glass fiber/polyethylene terephthalate (GF/PET) composites with reduced computational cost. By combining effective material homogenization, validation against literature data, and Gaussian‐process‐based optimization, the study reveals how heating limits, pulling speed,

Growth cone interactions

open access: yes, 2016
The tips of growing nerve axons flatten into growth cones, which are responsible for the navigation and elongation of the nerve toward the target. These sequences are of interactions between neurite growth cones dissociated from the sea hare, Aplysia ...

Affecting the Properties of Copper–Graphene Electroconductive Composite by Severe Plastic Deformation

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Copper‐based composites enhanced with carbon feature convenient mechanical properties and favorable electric conductivity. Processing via deformation and thermomechanical treatments can introduce advantageous microstructures further enhancing their performance. Herein, copper–graphene powder‐based composites are directly consolidated via rotary swaging

Regulation of growth cone behavior by calcium [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Neuroscience, 1991
Few structures within the nervous system have received more attention than the neuronal growth cone. Initially named by Ramon y Cajal (1890) who recognized its dynamics and importance in histological sections, the growth cone plays essential roles in the development, repair, and modification of neuronal circuitry. Growth cones have a diverse repertoire

Microstructure Evolution of a VMnFeCoNi High‐Entropy Alloy After Synthesis, Swaging, and Annealing

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The synthesis and processing (rotary swaging and annealing) of the novel VMnFeCoNi alloy is investigated, alongside the estimation of the grain size effect on hardness. Analysis of a wide grain size range of recrystallized microstructures (12–210 µm) reveals a low annealing twin density.

Growth cones are actively influenced by substrate-bound adhesion molecules

open access: yes, 1995
As axons advance to appropriate target tissues during development, their growth cones encounter a variety of cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) and extracellular matrix molecules (ECM molecules). Purified CAMs and ECM molecules influence neurite outgrowth in

Current Status and Challenges in Data Collection for Aerospace Coatings Deposited by Plasma Spraying

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
An innovative approach has been integrated into the GRENAT project to optimize plasma spraying and coating performance. Raw materials are accelerated and melted in the plasma generated by torches, creating coatings. Monitoring sensors collect process data which are combined with ex situ characterization data.

β-catenin-α-catenin and actomyosin signaling differentially regulate growth cone contours and axon undulation and branching of retinal ganglion cells in situ

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience
IntroductionCadherin adhesive and actomyosin signaling are key cytomechanical cues required for neuronal circuit formation, but whether they function together to sculpt developing neurons is not known. Previously, we demonstrated that a β-catenin mutant (

Functional analysis of SIRPα in the growth cone [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cell Science, 2006
The `signal regulatory protein' SIRPα is an Ig superfamily, transmembrane glycoprotein with a pair of cytoplasmic domains that can bind the phosphatase SHP-2 when phosphorylated on tyrosine. SIRPα is prominent in growth cones of rat cortical neurons and located, together with the tetraspanin CD81, in the growth cone periphery.
