Influence of curing temperature on freeze-thaw resistance of limestone powder hydraulic concrete
Case Studies in Construction Materials, 2022 Limestone powder (LS) is a new environmentally-friendly concrete admixture, and its application in concrete engineering is worth exploring. The curing of LS hydraulic concrete under extreme temperatures will significantly affect the interior ...

Making tau amyloid models in vitro: a crucial and underestimated challenge
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This review highlights the challenges of producing in vitro amyloid assemblies of the tau protein. We review how accurately the existing protocols mimic tau deposits found in the brain of patients affected with tauopathies. We discuss the important properties that should be considered when forming amyloids and the benchmarks that should be used to ...

High temperature rise dominated cracking mechanisms in ultra-ductile and tough titanium alloy
Nature Communications, 2020 Specific titanium alloys combine transformation-induced plasticity and twinning-induced plasticity for improved work hardening. Here, the authors show that these alloys also have an ultra-large fracture resistance and an unexpected fracture mechanism via

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Interaction extracellular vesicles (iEVs) are hybrid vesicles formed through host‐pathogen communication. They facilitate immune evasion, transfer pathogens' molecules, increase host cell uptake, and enhance virulence. This Perspective article illustrates the multifunctional roles of iEVs and highlights their emerging relevance in infection dynamics ...

On the impact of capillarity for strength at the nanoscale
Nature Communications, 2017 Nanoscale crystals can experience lattice instability and a tension-compression asymmetry of their strength. Here, Mameka and colleagues scrutinize the proposition that these phenomena arise from surface-induced stress, finding that the surface tension ...

Biodegradable Behaviors of Ultrafine-Grained ZE41A Magnesium Alloy in DMEM Solution
Metals, 2015 The main limitation to the clinical application of magnesium alloys is their too-fast degradation rate in the physiological environment. Bio-corrosion behaviors of the ZE41A magnesium alloy processed by multi-pass equal channel angular pressing (ECAP ...
