Shear-thinning and shear-thickening emulsions in shear flows [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics of Fluids, 2021
We study the rheology of a two-fluid emulsion in semiconcentrated conditions; the solute is Newtonian while the solvent is an inelastic power-law fluid. The problem at hand is tackled by means of direct numerical simulations using the volume of fluid method.

A sheared stylet [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ Case Reports, 2010
Neonatal intubating stylets (figure 1) are frequently used to assist intubation of preterm infants. Complications have been reported before.1 We report an episode in which the plastic sheath of …

INFLUENCE OF SHEAR RATE ON THE SOIL'S SHEAR STRENGTH

open access: yesEnvironmental Engineering - Inženjerstvo okoliša, 2021
One of the most important mechanical properties is shear strength. It is conditioned by the value of the maximum shear stress that the soil can withstand before failure. Exceeding the shear strength causes one particle to slide next to another, causing the failure of soil.

Load-Bearing Performance of Non-Prismatic RC Beams Wrapped with Carbon FRP Composites

open access: yesSensors, 2023
This study investigated the influence of CFRP composite wrapping techniques on the load–deflection and strain relationships of non-prismatic RC beams. A total of twelve non-prismatic beams with and without openings were tested in the present study.

Shear-banding and microstructure of colloids in shear flow [PDF]

open access: yesFaraday Discussions, 2002
We shall discuss the following phenomena found in various colloidal systems in shear flow. We recently observed shear-banding in suspensions of fd-virus in a cylindrical shear cell. Small angle light scattering experiments revealed that the shear-banding transition is preceded by a relatively fast process (minutes) of nematic-to-paranematic phase ...

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

EEG for Diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder

open access: yesPediatric Neurology Briefs, 2018
Investigators from Boston University and the University of San Francisco evaluated whether EEG could be reliably used as an early biomarker for diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder.

Loss of proton‐sensing TDAG8 increases tumor progression in mouse models of colon cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Loss of the pH‐sensing receptor TDAG8 accelerates colorectal cancer progression in mice. Animals lacking TDAG8 expression had increased tumor growth, DNA damage, and recruitment of tumor‐associated immune cells, including macrophages, neutrophils, and monocytes.

Single‐molecule DNA flow‐stretch assays for high‐throughput DNA–protein interaction studies

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We describe an optimised single‐molecule DNA flow‐stretch assay that visualises DNA–protein interactions in real time. Linear DNA fragments are tethered to a surface and stretched by buffer flow for fluorescence imaging. Using λ and φX174 DNA, this protocol enhances reproducibility and accessibility, providing a versatile approach for studying diverse ...

Vascular adaptation model from force balance: Physarum polycephalum as a case study

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2023
Understanding vascular adaptation, namely what drives veins to shrink or grow, is key for the self-organization of flow networks and their optimization.
