Ab initio van der Waals interactions in simulations of water alter structure from mainly tetrahedral to high-density-like [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The structure of liquid water at ambient conditions is studied in ab initio molecular dynamics simulations using van der Waals (vdW) density-functional theory, i.e. using the new exchange-correlation functionals optPBE-vdW and vdW-DF2.

Conditional essentiality of the 11-subunit complex I-like enzyme in strict anaerobes: the case of Desulfitobacterium hafniense strain DCB-2

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
In oxidative phosphorylation, respiratory complex I serves as an entry point in the electron transport chain for electrons generated in catabolic processes in the form of NADH.

A comparison between passive and active case finding in TB control in the Arkhangelsk region [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Circumpolar Health, 2014
Background: In Russia, active case finding (ACF) for certain population groups has been practiced uninterruptedly for many decades, but no studies comparing ACF and passive case finding (PCF) approaches in Russia have been published.

Cost-effectiveness analysis of community active case finding and household contact investigation for tuberculosis case detection in urban Africa. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
INTRODUCTION:Case detection by passive case finding (PCF) strategy alone is inadequate for detecting all tuberculosis (TB) cases in high burden settings especially Sub-Saharan Africa.

Low material loss and dispersion flattened fiber for single mode THz-wave transmission applications

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2018
In the article, a very low loss terahertz (THz) photonic crystal fiber (PCF) has been proposed and investigated precisely. The investigation results have proved that the designed PCF shows very low effective material loss (EML) of 0.03 cm−1 at 1.0 THz ...

Seismic Performance and Design of the Fully Assembled Precast Concrete Frame with Buckling-Restrained Braces

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
Although precast concrete structures have been widely used in building engineering, their application in moderate- and high-seismic zones is restricted because of poor lateral performance. This study proposed a fully assembled precast concrete frame with

Depolarized guided acoustic wave Brillouin scattering in hollow-core photonic crystal fibers

open access: yes, 2015
By performing quantum-noise-limited optical heterodyne detection, we observe polarization noise in light after propagation through a hollow-core photonic crystal fiber (PCF).
