Standards guidelines for human comfort tested on timber footbridges

open access: yesSemina: Ciências Exatas e Tecnológicas, 2011
Activities such as walking, running and jumping can produce undesirable dynamic excitations, which are a phenomenon that occurs due to pedestrian-induced dynamic forces whenever a footbridge features a natural frequency within stepping frequency ranges ...

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

Evaluating vibrations on a small-scale model of a timber footbridge

open access: yesMaderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2011
In Brazil, the study of pedestrian-induced vibration on footbridges has been undertaken since the early 1990s, for concrete and steel footbridges. However, there are no recorded studies of this kind for timber footbridges.

Ultimate and serviceability limit state optimization of cold-formed steel hat-shaped beams

open access: yes, 2009
Cold-formed steel hat-shaped beams are commonly used in light-weight steel construction systems, such as residential housing structures. The ultimate strength of these sections is affected by their complex stability behavior (e.g. local, distortional and

Reliability assessment of ultimate and serviceability limit states of underground rock caverns

open access: yes, 2012
Both the stress-induced and structurally controlled instabilities are investigated by means of the Distinct Element program UDEC. The Factor of Safety is used as the criterion for the Ultimate Limit State and the volume of rock mass displaced into the ...

Organizing the interface—Plasma membrane architecture and receptor dynamics in virus‐cell interactions

open access: yesFEBS 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 ...

Epigenetic blind spots – the role of DNA methylation dynamics in stem cell‐based models of embryogenesis

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.

Evaluating vibrations on a small-scale model of a timber footbridge

open access: yesMaderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2014
In Brazil, the study of pedestrian-induced vibration on footbridges has been undertaken since the early 1990s, for concrete and steel footbridges. However, there are no recorded studies of this kind for timber footbridges.

Parametric analysis of serviceability limit state verifications in reinforced concrete elements subjected to bending

open access: yes, 2022
This study is focused on the serviceability limit states (SLS) of stress limitation, cracking control and deflections of reinforced concrete (RC) beams.

Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...
