Experimental Study on Damping Ratio Characteristics of Loose Silty Fine Sand at Different Saturations [PDF]
[Objective] Current research on the damping ratio evolution of silty fine sand under varying saturation conditions remains relatively limited, and in particular, systematic investigations revealing the mechanisms by which saturation variations influence ...

Preliminary findings on the experimental investigation of the small-strain behaviour of Pizzoli silty sand [PDF]
The dynamic properties of soils play a crucial role in solving many geotechnical problems with special attention to earthquake engineering. In particular, the small-strain soil behavior should be accurately reproduced in geotechnical modelling to allow ...

Innovative Triaxial/Resonant Column Equipment [PDF]
The present paper describes a new triaxial apparatus which allows the measurement of low strain stiffness by means of both bender elements and resonant column test. In a previous paper Squeglia et al.

The process of internalization of the Shiga toxin A subunit via formation of a complex with the Shiga toxin B subunit, which specifically binds to the Gb3 receptor. The peptide is designed to act as a carrier of drugs into cancer cells. Here, we explored the potential of peptides derived from the catalytic A subunit of Shiga toxin (STxA) to be drug ...

Influence of gas hydrate morphology on the seismic velocities of sands
This paper reports the results of a series of resonant column tests on specimens where gas hydrate has been formed in sands using an “excess water” technique.

Structural and biochemical analysis of a B12 superbinder
BtuG proteins are vitamin B12 scavengers in Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, a dominant human gut bacterium. We present crystal structures of three BtuG homologs bound to cobalamin and its precursor cobinamide, revealing picomolar binding affinities, among the highest known for any natural protein.

The novel styrylquinazolinone‐based molecule W1B effectively suppresses glioblastoma by inhibiting IGF1R and EGFR. In high‐glucose microenvironments driving tumor resistance, W1B acts synergistically with the EGFR inhibitor dacomitinib. This combination safely blocks compensatory survival signaling in zebrafish xenograft models. Showcasing promising in

Seismic response of deep soft soil sites with varying shear wave velocities
The variations in seismic response between deep soft soil sites with different shear wave velocities were not fully understood. This study focuses on the seismic response of deep soft soil sites in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, China.
