Arching in concrete slabs strengthened with near surface mounted fibre reinforced polymers [PDF]

Engineering Structures, 2019
Abstract This paper outlines basalt fibre reinforced polymer (BFRP) and carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) strengthening of laterally restrained concrete floor slabs. In-plane restraint has previously been shown to enhance slab capacity due to the development of internal compressive membrane action (CMA), which is not generally included in ...

Assessment of nonlinear bond laws for near-surface-mounted systems in concrete elements [PDF]

Composites Part B: Engineering, 2013
Abstract This paper presents a numerical plane Finite Element (FE) model for use in simulating the behaviour of different types of Near Surface Mounted (NSM) Fibre Reinforced Plastic (FRP) strengthening systems for concrete elements. Based on a nonlinear bond law for simulating the behaviour of the FRP reinforcement-adhesive-concrete interface, the ...

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

Flow around a cube in a turbulent boundary layer: LES and experiment [PDF]

, 2009
We present a numerical simulation of flow around a surface mounted cube placed in a turbulent boundary layer which, although representing a typical wind environment, has been specifically tailored to match a series of wind tunnel observations.

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.

Improving the flexural behavior of RC beams strengthening by near-surface mounting

Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Materials, 2022
Abstract This article presents the experimental investigations undertaken to evaluate the strengthening and enhancement characteristics of near-surface mounted (NSM) devices using different types of bars. A total of 4 concrete beams (150 mm × 300 mm × 1,500 mm) were reinforced in flexure.

Septin 9 PB domains coordinate centrosome positioning and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Septin 9 polybasic domains couple phosphoinositide‐rich membrane binding to centrosome positioning, Golgi organization, and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity. Their loss disrupts this axis, causing centrosome mispositioning, Golgi fragmentation, reduced microtubule acetylation, and polarity inversion via upregulation of the ...
