Evaluation of Railway Level Crossing Attributes on Accident Causation in Lagos, Nigeria.
Indonesian Journal of Geography, 2017 The study examines the contribution of Railway Level Crossing (RLC)physical attributes to accident occurrence using the12 major level crossings within the Lagos metropolis. The 48km single track mainline section under consideration which barely make up 1.

Impact of wheel shape on the vertical damage of cast crossing panels in turnouts [PDF]
, 2015 Impact forces generated in the load transfer area of railway crossing panels lead to a range of degradation modes from wear and fatigue of the contacting materials, fatigue of supporting components to ballast/subgrade deterioration.

Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.

Method for a structured identification of suitable safety and securing systems for Level Crossings [PDF]
, 2009 Safety and securing systems for level crossing have a long life time. Once a system reaches a life time when it is no longer conform to applicable regulations, it has to be modernized or replaced.

Beyond the Crossing: A Cognitive Work Analysis of Rail Level Crossing Systems [PDF]
, 2015 Progress is not being made on the longstanding problem of collisions between people and trains at rail level crossings. It has been suggested that this may be, in part, due to a lack of systems thinking during design, crash analysis, and countermeasure ...

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Global k-Level Crossing Reduction
Journal of Graph Algorithms and Applications, 2011 Summary: Directed graphs are commonly drawn by a four phase framework introduced by \textit{K. Sugiyama} et al. in 1981 [IEEE Trans. Syst., Man, Cybern. 11, No. 2, 109--125, (1981)]. The vertices are placed on parallel horizontal levels. The edge routing between consecutive levels is computed by solving one-sided 2-level crossing minimization problems,

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.
