Ambient Vibration Based Model Updating Effects on the Earthquake Response of Tall Buildings [PDF]
, 2016 The study investigates ambient vibration based model updating effects on the seismic behaviour of a RC tall building subjected to far and near-fault ground motions. A 17-storey building built in Giresun, Turkey is selected as an application.

Centrifuge modeling of rocking-isolated inelastic RC bridge piers [PDF]
, 2014 Experimental proof is provided of an unconventional seismic design concept, which is based on deliberately underdesigning shallow foundations to promote intense rocking oscillations and thereby to dramatically improve the seismic resilience of structures.

Integration of circadian and hypoxia signaling via non‐canonical heterodimerization
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.CLOCK, BMAL1, and HIFs are basic helix‐loop‐helix and Per‐Arnt‐Sim domain (bHLH‐PAS) proteins, which function as transcription factors. bHLH‐PAS proteins are designated in two classes. Many class I proteins are regulated by environmental signals via their PAS domains, but such signals have not been identified for all.

Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2016 Near-fault ground motion is a key to understanding the seismic hazard along a fault and is challenged by the ground motion prediction equation approach. This paper presents a developed stochastic-slip-scaling source model, a spatial stochastic model with

Deep test hole drilled near fault
Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1980 In an effort to answer troublesome questions about stresses on the San Andreas fault, a team of U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) researchers is compiling data from in situ measurements in the deepest hole ever drilled, for scientific purposes, on or near the San Andreas fault.Headed by Mark Zoback, the team recently finished drilling the 1‐km hole, made ...

Finite Fault Source Model for Ground Motion near Fault Zone
IABSE Congress Reports, 2022 <p>Ground motion is categorized into near fault zone and across fault zone where impulsive component is included. The impulsive component usually causes larger damage than that by far-fault ground motion. To build a Benchmark model platform for cable-stayed bridges across-fault region for comparative analysis, the paper proposes a way combining ...

Multiple ETS family transcription factors bind mutant p53 via distinct interaction regions
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Mutant p53 gain‐of‐function is thought to be mediated by interaction with other transcription factors. We identify multiple ETS transcription factors that can bind mutant p53 and found that this interaction can be promoted by a PXXPP motif. ETS proteins that strongly bound mutant p53 were upregulated in ovarian cancer compared to ETS proteins that ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.

Sequence determinants of RNA G‐quadruplex unfolding by Arg‐rich regions
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We show that Arg‐rich peptides selectively unfold RNA G‐quadruplexes, but not RNA stem‐loops or DNA/RNA duplexes. This length‐dependent activity is inhibited by acidic residues and is conserved among SR and SR‐related proteins (SRSF1, SRSF3, SRSF9, U1‐70K, and U2AF1).

Influence of model parameters on synthesized high-frequency strong-motion waveforms [PDF]
, 2010 Waveform modeling is an important and helpful instrument of modern seismology that may provide valuable information. However, synthesizing seismograms requires to define many parameters, which differently affect the final result.
