Impact of the intermediate principal stress on the strength of heterogeneous rock [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2002
A numerical model simulating a granular material has been used to study the impact of the intermediate principal stress on rock strength. While maintaining the minimum principal stress at zero, the model predicts strength to increase with increasing constant ratios of σ2/σ1.

Cell wall target fragment discovery using a low‐cost, minimal fragment library

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
LoCoFrag100 is a fragment library made up of 100 different compounds. Similarity between the fragments is minimized and 10 different fragments are mixed into a single cocktail, which is soaked to protein crystals. These crystals are analysed by X‐ray crystallography, revealing the binding modes of the bound fragment ligands.

Unloading Mechanics and Energy Characteristics of Sandstone under Different Intermediate Principal Stress Conditions

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2021
The TRW-3000 true triaxial rock testing machine was used to conduct loading and unloading tests of sandstone under different σ2, and the true triaxial lateral unloading mechanics and energy characteristics of sandstone under different σ2 were studied ...

Nonlinear morphoelastic plates II: exodus to buckled states [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Morphoelasticity is the theory of growing elastic materials. This theory is based on the multiple decomposition of the deformation gradient and provides a formulation of the deformation and stresses induced by growth.

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

A stochastic flow rule for granular materials

open access: yes, 2006
There have been many attempts to derive continuum models for dense granular flow, but a general theory is still lacking. Here, we start with Mohr-Coulomb plasticity for quasi-2D granular materials to calculate (average) stresses and slip planes, but we ...

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Evolution of mining‐induced stress in fully mechanized top‐coal caving under high horizontal stress

open access: yesEnergy Science & Engineering, 2020
In fully mechanized top‐coal caving (FMTC), the effects of coal caving are closely related to the degree of damage to the top‐coal which is determined by the stress state therein.

The multiplicative deformation split for shells with application to growth, chemical swelling, thermoelasticity, viscoelasticity and elastoplasticity

open access: yes, 2019
This work presents a general unified theory for coupled nonlinear elastic and inelastic deformations of curved thin shells. The coupling is based on a multiplicative decomposition of the surface deformation gradient.

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...
