HYDROLOGICAL AND STABILITY MODELLING OF INITIAL LANDSLIDES TRIGGERING DEBRIS FLOWS IN ASH-FALL DEPOSITS COVERING HILLSLOPES SURROUNDING SOMMA-VESUVIUS (SOUTHERN ITALY). [PDF]

, 2010
Rainfall-induced debris flows involving ash-fall pyroclastic deposits covering steep mountain slopes that surround the Somma-Vesuvius volcano, are natural events representing the main cause of risk for urban settlements located at footslopes.

GelMA‐based 3D spheroids recapitulate transcriptomic and functional hallmarks of myeloid sarcoma

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
GelMA 5% hydrogels support the formation of myeloid leukemia spheroids that recapitulate MS‐specific features, including G1 arrest, apoptosis, and ECM‐driven transcriptomic reprogramming. The 3D model mimicked soft‐tissue‐like stiffness and oxygen conditions, and transcriptomic convergence with primary MS samples confirmed its utility as a preclinical ...

Sediment transport capacity of concentrated flows on steep loessial slope with erodible beds

Scientific Reports, 2017
Previous research on sediment transport capacity has been inadequate and incomplete in describing the detachment and transport process of concentrated flows on slope farmlands during rill development.

Flow slide prediction method: influence of slope geometry

, 1998
A quasi-two-dimensional method is presented for predicting liquefaction flow slides in a slope with saturated loose sand. The initial stresses at the start of the actual flow slide process are predicted assuming completely drained conditions during the ...

Structural and biochemical insights into the thermostable esterase Ta0887 from Thermoplasma acidophilum

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In this study, a novel esterase from the thermoacidophilic archaeon Thermoplasma acidophilum was biochemically and structurally characterized. Our results demonstrate that Ta0887 is a highly thermostable esterase that preferentially hydrolyzes p‐nitrophenyl hexanoate and possesses an α‐helical cap domain that likely contributes to its substrate ...

Stability analysis of an earth embankment subjected to rainfall infiltration - Analisi di stabilità di un rilevato in terra soggetto ad infiltrazione di acque di pioggia [PDF]

, 2013
In the present thesis, an attempt was made to study, with a numerical software, how the rainfall infiltration influences the stresses and the behavior of a soil embankment according to different hydraulic permeability values and rainfall intensities.

Cell surface CD11c as a neutrophil aging marker molecule

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Cell surface CD11chi neutrophils were more aged and had better phagocytic function than CD11c−/lo neutrophils. Transcriptomic analysis of CD11chi neutrophils and CD11c−/lo neutrophils in pediatric population showed that the most difference was seen in infants.

Modeling Soil Organic Carbon Loss in Relation to Flow Velocity and Slope on the Loess Plateau of China

, 2016
Soil organic C (SOC) loss is usually estimated in relation to sediment loss in the long term and at a large scale. Further studies on building a simple SOC prediction model for individual rainfall events are thus needed.

Recent insights into the molecular mechanism of ubiquinol oxidation by cytochrome bc1

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The review reflects on the mechanism of the catalytic reaction in cytochrome bc1: the electron bifurcation that involves the separation of two electrons derived from the quinol oxidation to opposite sides of the enzyme across the membrane. This review summarizes the long‐standing effort to understand the mechanism of quinol oxidation catalyzed by ...
