Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS 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.

Optimisation of Continuous and Pulsed Cooling in Injection Moulding Processes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The concept of pulsed cooling in injection moulding involves cycling the flow of coolant in order that cooling only takes place as and when it is required, as opposed to continuous cooling, where the coolant in run through the channels throughout the ...

Self-optimizing Control of Cooling Tower for Efficient Operation of Chilled Water Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The chilled-water systems, mainly consisting of electric chillers and cooling towers, are crucial for the ventilating and air conditioning systems in commercial buildings. Energy efficient operation of such systems is thus important for the energy saving

Effects of film hole spanwise angle and diameter on flow and heat transfer of impingement/effusion cooling with crossflow diverters

open access: yesCase Studies in Thermal Engineering
This paper studies the blade cooling under the co-effect of external film extraction and internal impingement cooling with crossflow diverters. The influence of spanwise angle (α) and diameter (Df) of film hole on flow and cooling performance are ...

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

The cooling performance of three-row compound angle holes on the suction surface of a rotating turbine blade

open access: yesPropulsion and Power Research, 2021
Experiments were carried out to study the effects of compound angle, hole arrangement, and blowing ratio on the film cooling performance of multiple rows of holes on the suction surface of a turbine blade.

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...
