Theory of active self-organization of dense nematic structures in the actin cytoskeleton [PDF]
eLifeThe actin cytoskeleton is remarkably adaptable and multifunctional. It often organizes into nematic bundles such as contractile rings or stress fibers. However, how a uniform and isotropic actin gel self-organizes into dense nematic bundles is not fully ...

Thermal conductivity of compacted Opalinus Clay at different degrees of saturation [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2023 Tunnelling in bedded shale rocks induces damage around the excavation. Consequently, the rock mass in the excavation damaged zone (EDZ) shows different thermo-hydro-mechanical (THM) properties from the intact rock.
