Simulations of vibrated granular medium with impact velocity dependent restitution coefficient [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We report numerical simulations of strongly vibrated granular materials designed to mimic recent experiments performed both in presence or absence of gravity.

Diabetes‐induced vascular calcification is associated with low pyrophosphate and its oral supplementation prevents calcification in diabetic mice

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Induction of diabetes in three different mouse strains uniformly resulted in an increase in TNAP activity and a reduction in pyrophosphate (PPi) in the circulation. Inhibition of TNAP restored plasma PPi. Diabetes‐induced calcification in the media layer of the aorta was detected only in the Abcc6−/− strain, which is predisposed to ectopic ...

Dynamical approach to weakly dissipative granular collisions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Granular systems present surprisingly complicated dynamics. In particular, nonlinear interactions and energy dissipation play important roles in these dynamics.

Evaluation of in vitro toxicity of common phytochemicals included in weight loss supplements using 1H NMR spectroscopy

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We investigated the toxicity of 12 active compounds commonly found in herbal weight loss supplements (WLS) using human liver and colon cell models. Epigallocatechin‐3‐gallate was the only compound showing significant toxicity. Metabolic profiling revealed protein degradation, disrupted energy and lipid metabolism suggesting that the inclusion of EGCG ...

DEFINITION OF COFFICIENTS RECOVERY SPEEDS AT IMPACT OF THE STRIKER ON THE TOOL AT THE NODES OF CONSTRUCTION AND MINING MACHINES

open access: yesВестник СибАДИ, 2018
The processes of value changing of the restitution coefficient in a direct сentral impact of deformable bodies are presented, because values of the  restitution coefficient are necessary for calculation the  striker dynamics and  the tool in the ...

Rolling as a continuing collision

open access: yes, 2002
We show that two basic mechanical processes, the collision of particles and rolling motion of a sphere on a plane, are intimately related. According to our recent findings, the restitution coefficient for colliding spherical particles \epsilon, which ...

Coefficient of Restitution Interpreted as Damping in Vibroimpact [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Mechanics, 1975
During impact the relative motion of two bodies is often taken to be simply represented as half of a damped sine wave, according to the Kelvin-Voigt model. This is shown to be logically untenable, for it indicates that the bodies must exert tension on one another just before separating.

dUTPase is essential in zebrafish development and possesses several single‐nucleotide variants with pronounced structural and functional consequences

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
dUTPases are involved in balancing the appropriate nucleotide pools. We showed that dUTPase is essential for normal development in zebrafish. The different zebrafish genomes contain several single‐nucleotide variations (SNPs) of the dut gene. One of the dUTPase variants displayed drastically lower protein stability and catalytic efficiency as compared ...

The influence of the restitution coefficient and multiple impacts on the force exerted by ISO tapping machines

open access: yesActa Acustica
ISO tapping machines serve as absolute standards to describe the sensitivity of buildings and building elements in terms of impact noise. They consist of five hammers with a mass of 500 g each.
