Inelastic displacement ratio for rocking buildings subjected to far-field and near-field pulse-like ground motions [PDF]
Journal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2019 Self centering rocking buildings are capable of reducing permanent damage and concentrating damage to replaceable energy dissipation devices. This paper aims to calculate inelastic displacement ratio for self centering rocking buildings under far field ...

Fragility analysis of offshore wind turbine expose to near-field pulse-like ground motion
, 2021 The near field pulse-like ground motion has significant effects on a long-period structure like a wind turbine. Such pulses can be due to source effect (directivity) or site effect (presence of basins), to name a few.

Effects of pulse-like ground motions and wavelet asymmetry on responses of cantilever retaining wall
, 2023 Fault-rupture processes produce pulse-like ground motions in near-fault regions. These motions are characterized as large-amplitude long-period pulsing that can cause severe structural damage.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Time‐resolved X‐ray solution scattering captures how proteins change shape in real time under near‐native conditions. This article presents a practical workflow for light‐triggered TR‐XSS experiments, from data collection to structural refinement. Using a calcium‐transporting membrane protein as an example, the approach can be broadly applied to study ...

Optimizing photoexcitation conditions for time‐resolved X‐ray solution scattering experiments
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Time‐resolved X‐ray solution scattering (TR‐XSS) is a powerful technique to visualize how proteins change their structure in real time after light activation. Selecting the right laser photoexcitation conditions—fluence, excitation geometry, and sample refresh rate—is critical to maximize the experimental signal while avoiding unwanted side effects ...
