Understanding fast macroscale fracture from microcrack post mortem patterns [PDF]
, 2011 Dynamic crack propagation drives catastrophic solid failures. In many amorphous brittle materials, sufficiently fast crack growth involves small-scale, high-frequency microcracking damage localized near the crack tip.

Performance of Asphalt Rubber Mixture Overlays to Mitigate Reflective Cracking
Materials, 2022 Adequately predicting overlay behaviour is essential for flexible pavement rehabilitation to reach the predicted lifespan. Reflective cracking is one of the main failure mechanisms affecting overlay performance. This failure may occur due to cracks in the lower layers that propagate to the overlay due to traffic loads, temperature variations, shrinkage

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

Laboratory Validation of Surface-Initiated Transverse Cracking of Asphalt Pavement
Applied Sciences, 2020 Field pavement transverse cracking typically can be grouped into two categories, namely thermal cracking that initiates at the surface of the pavement and propagates downward, and reflective cracking that initiates at the pavement layer above the ...

Method of protecting a surface with a silicon-slurry/aluminide coating [PDF]
, 1982 A low cost coating for protecting metallic base system substrates from high temperatures, high gas velocity oxidation, thermal fatigue and hot corrosion is described. The coating is particularly useful for protecting vanes and blades in aircraft and land

Fatigue Damage in Notched Composite Laminates Under Tension-Tension Cyclic Loads [PDF]
, 1985 The results are given of an investigation to determine the damage states which develop in graphite epoxy laminates with center holes due to tension-tension cyclic loads, to determine the influence of stacking sequence on the initiation and interaction of

AAA+ protein unfoldases—the Moirai of the proteome
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.AAA+ unfoldases are essential molecular motors that power protein degradation and disaggregation. This review integrates recent cryo‐electron microscopy (cryo‐EM) structures and single‐molecule biophysical data to reconcile competing models of substrate translocation.

Design Approach for Composite Pavement Structure Incorporating Reflective Crack Considerations
Applied SciencesThe current design methods employed for composite pavement structures predominantly rely on cement concrete slabs, which unfortunately lack established design standards and associated control indicators for determining the appropriate thickness of the ...
