Variational Multisymplectic Formulations of Nonsmooth Continuum Mechanics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
This paper develops the foundations of the multisymplectic formulation of nonsmooth continuum mechanics. It may be regarded as a PDE generalization of previous techniques that developed a variational approach to collision problems.

Improving reservoir permeability by electric pulse controllable shock wave

open access: yesJournal of Petroleum Exploration and Production Technology, 2023
Controllable shock wave (CWS) parameters such as amplitude, operating area and number of operations are easy to control and have received extensive attention as a potential new technology for reservoir permeability enhancement.

Correlation of Global Quantities at Material Characterization of Pressure-Sensitive Materials Using Sharp Indentation Testing

open access: yesLubricants, 2021
Correlation of sharp indentation problems is examined theoretically and numerically. The analysis focuses on elastic-plastic pressure-sensitive materials and especially the case when the local plastic zone is so large that elastic effects on the mean ...

The Mechanics of Spacetime - A Solid Mechanics Perspective on the Theory of General Relativity

open access: yes, 2018
We present an elastic constitutive model of gravity where we identify physical space with the mid-hypersurface of an elastic hyperplate called the "cosmic fabric" and spacetime with the fabric's world volume.

Improving Road Safety: Experimental Analysis of Brake Pad Performance Under Varying Speeds and Fluid Pressure

open access: yesJournal of Engineering
Indonesia faces significant traffic safety challenges, with an increasing number of accidents each year, primarily due to brake system failures. Approximately 80% of accidents in both public and freight transportation are attributed to brake failure and ...

Interplay between circadian and other transcription factors—Implications for cycling transcriptome reprogramming

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This perspective highlights emerging insights into how the circadian transcription factor CLOCK:BMAL1 regulates chromatin architecture, cooperates with other transcription factors, and coordinates enhancer dynamics. We propose an updated framework for how circadian transcription factors operate within dynamic and multifactorial chromatin landscapes ...

In situ molecular organization and heterogeneity of the Legionella Dot/Icm T4SS

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present a nearly complete in situ model of the Legionella Dot/Icm type IV secretion system, revealing its central secretion channel and identifying new components. Using cryo‐electron tomography with AI‐based modeling, our work highlights the structure, variability, and mechanism of this complex nanomachine, advancing understanding of bacterial ...
