The Departing Body: Creation of the Neutral in-between Sensual Bodies

open access: yesAsian Studies, 2011
This paper investigates the Japanese concept of ma/aida, the space in-between, discussed by French author Roland Barthes as the Neutral, not signifying the medium of the opposite poles but the bare existence.

Passivity-Based Control for Small Hydro-Power Generation With PMSG and VSC

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
This paper presents a passivity-based control method for a small hydro-power system that consists of a permanent magnet synchronous generator (PSMG) connected to the grid through a back-to-back converter.

Golgi enzymes are retrieved from the plasma membrane to the trans‐Golgi network

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Golgi enzymes are traditionally considered resident proteins retained within the Golgi apparatus. Here, we demonstrate that a subset transiently reaches the cell surface and is subsequently retrieved to the trans‐Golgi network via retrograde transport. Using a nanobody‐based toolkit, we uncover a dynamic trafficking cycle of several Golgi enzymes.

SPECIFICITY OF THE PASSIVE STATE OF IRON IN SLIGHTLY ALKALINE AQUEOUS MEDIA WITH DIFFERENT ANIONIC COMPOSITION

open access: yesКонденсированные среды и межфазные границы, 2017
A comparative analysis of the effect of anionic composition and hydrodynamic conditions on the passivation of iron in a borate buffer (pH 8.4) and hydrocarbonate (pH 8.3 с(NaHCO3) = 0.075 М) aqueous solutions was carried out.

Functional comparison of EncB and EncC cargo proteins in iron storage within the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Encapsulins are protein nanocompartments that play an important role in iron storage. In the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin system, two cargo proteins called EncB and EncC contribute to iron mineralization. Here, we show that EncB and EncC generate iron‐containing minerals with distinct chemical compositions, suggesting that the composition of stored ...

Ultrafine Grain 316L Stainless Steel Manufactured by Ball Milling and Spark Plasma Sintering: Consequences on the Corrosion Resistance in Chloride Media

open access: yesMetals
This paper reports experimental results concerning the corrosion of 316L austenitic stainless steels produced by ball milling and spark plasma sintering in NaCl electrolyte. Specimens with grain sizes ranging from 0.3 µm to 3 µm, without crystallographic

‘Guide and Prejudice’— How Argonautes recognize targets across domains of life

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Argonaute proteins use short nucleic‐acid guides to locate and regulate specific targets across all domains of life. Despite striking diversity—from human gene silencing to bacterial immune defence—all Argonautes share a conserved three‐stage recognition logic: guide‐directed sampling, progressive target pairing with a conformational checkpoint and ...

Nonfragile Observer-Based Control With Passivity and H∞ Performance for a Class of Power-Line Inspection Robots With Input Time-Delay

open access: yesIEEE Access
This study introduces a nonfragile observer-based control strategy for power-line inspection robots (PILRs) that adeptly tackles input time delays while integrating passivity and $H_{\infty }$ performance. The research commences with the development of

Fundamental studies of passivity and passivity breakdown [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
We developed and experimentally tested physical models for growth and breakdown of passive films on metal surfaces. These models are ``point defect models,`` in which the growth and breakdown are described in terms of movement of anion and cation vacancies.

Artificial molecular machines and motors—Design and control of nanoscale motion

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Molecules are constantly moving because of thermal fluctuations, but random motion alone cannot be exploited to perform directional tasks. Artificial molecular machines use chemical, electrical, or light energy to bias this motion. Molecular shuttles, rotary motors, and supramolecular pumps illustrate how nanoscale movement can be controlled and ...
