A Modified Theoretical Model to Accurately Account for Interfacial Roughness in Predicting the Interfacial Thermal Conductance

Frontiers in Energy Research, 2018
The acoustic mismatch model and the diffuse mismatch model (DMM) have been widely used to predict the thermal interface conductance. However, the acoustic mismatch model and the DMM are based on the hypothesis of a perfectly smooth interface and a ...

Langmuir-Blodgett transfer from the oil-water interface.

Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 2022
HYPOTHESIS Almost all Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films were prepared with the classical Langmuir film balance, developed more than a century ago. To date, the success of the classical Langmuir film balance and the LB transfer technique is primarily ...

Null/overt subject alternations in L2 Spanish and L2 Greek

Glossa, 2020
This study aims at exploring the omission/expression of subjects in L2 Spanish and L2 Greek. The distribution of subjects is examined in the context of the Interface Hypothesis (IH), which locates the difficulty of acquisition at the syntax-pragmatics ...

2D resistivity model around the rupture area of the 2011 Tohoku-oki earthquake (Mw 9.0)

Earth, Planets and Space, 2023
The 2011 Tohoku-oki earthquake (Mw 9.0) was characterized by a huge fault slip on the shallowest part of the plate interface, where fault behavior had been believed to be aseismic.

Compounding and variational morphology: the analysis of inflection in Spanish compounds

Borealis: An International Journal of Hispanic Linguistics, 2014
This paper analyzes the morphological variation related to gender and number in Spanish compounding such as plural noun in [V+N]ncompounds (ellavaplatos, not el lavaplato; el cazamariposas, not *el cazamariposa), the gender and number asymmetries between

Fitness costs of mutations at the HIV-1 capsid hexamerization interface. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
The recently available x-ray crystal structure of HIV-1 capsid hexamers has provided insight into the molecular interactions crucial for the virus's mature capsid formation.

Interface challenges in online processing: the role of crosslinguistic influence in L2 sentence comprehension

Language and Cognition
The integration of multiple linguistic modules – syntax, semantics and pragmatics – poses a persistent challenge for adult second language (L2) learners, as posited by the interface hypothesis (IH).

Structural and dynamic requirements for optimal activity of the essential bacterial enzyme dihydrodipicolinate synthase. [PDF]

PLoS Computational Biology, 2012
Dihydrodipicolinate synthase (DHDPS) is an essential enzyme involved in the lysine biosynthesis pathway. DHDPS from E. coli is a homotetramer consisting of a 'dimer of dimers', with the catalytic residues found at the tight-dimer interface ...

Valosin‐containing protein counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its ATPase activity in vitro

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Novel concept of a modular hip implant could contribute to less implant failure in THA: a hypothesis

Patient Safety in Surgery, 2018
Background The modularity in total hip arthroplasty (THA) allows orthopaedic surgeons for an exact reconstruction of hip biomechanical parameters especially in revision and tumor arthroplasty. Modular structured femoral stems using taper junctions showed
