A novel seismic connector for precast concrete shear walls
Abstract A critical aspect of the seismic performance of precast concrete walls is the deformation capacity of their connections, which can be limited by premature bar fracture, reinforcement buckling, or cyclic instability. This paper introduces and experimentally validates a new ultra‐ductile connector (UltraDC) that provides reliable force transfer ...

REPRODUCING OPERATIONAL LANDSCAPES: The Rock Mining for Indonesia's New Capital City
Abstract Indonesia's new capital city is designed to become a green and sustainable city. In this article, we examine the (un)sustainability of the process through which the city is coming into being. Using the sociospatial theory of planetary urbanization, we trace the dialectical relationship between the new city and sites beyond it to show how ...

Astrocytic gap junctions formed by connexin43 (Cx43) help maintain brain homeostasis. After mild traumatic brain injury (TBI), total cortical Cx43 increases and redistributes toward a soluble, non‐junctional pool with elevated hemichannel activity and increased phosphorylation at serine 368 (pCx43S368).

Development of durable fiber reinforced polymer grouted splice connection [PDF]
Presently, the ease of field assembly offered by precast concrete systems is weighted against the larger numbers of connections that are required in precast concrete systems, which pose a problem.

Rescue of pATOM36‐depleted T. brucei by human MTCH1/2 reveals common features of protein insertases
Human MTCH1 and MTCH2 (with an N‐terminal extension) functionally complement the loss of pATOM36 in T. brucei, indicating that these evolutionarily distant proteins recognize a common set of substrates and share fundamental principles of mitochondrial outer membrane protein insertion. Structural analyses reveal a common hydrophilic cavity, supporting a

SHIP1 regulates TREM2 signalling and macrophage functions in a hiPSC‐derived model
In this study, we characterised the role of SHIP1 in regulating TREM2 signalling and global microglial myeloid functions using human‐induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)‐derived macrophages. Knockout of SHIP1 (SHIP1 KO) in macrophages decreased inflammatory activation and levels of scavenger receptors. SHIP1 KO macrophages also exhibited reduced TREM2

One day of environment‐induced heat stress causes injury to the murine kidney
Abstract Environment‐induced heat stress (EIHS) results from sustained body temperature elevation owing to prolonged exposure to heat and humidity. We hypothesized that EIHS would cause kidney injury and cellular dysfunction. To test this hypothesis, female C57 mice were exposed to EIHS (n = 14; 37.6°C, 42.0% relative humidity) or thermoneutral (TN ...
