Fluctuation phenomena in crystal plasticity - a continuum model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
On microscopic and mesoscopic scales, plastic flow of crystals is characterized by large intrinsic fluctuations. Deformation by crystallographic slip occurs in a sequence of intermittent bursts ('slip avalanches') with power-law size distribution. In the

Down‐regulation of Shh in the hair follicles of mice during chemotherapy‐induced hair loss is mediated by the JAK/STAT1 signaling pathway

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We found that during chemotherapy‐induced alopecia (CIA), Sonic hedgehog (Shh) expression significantly decreased in hair follicle Shh+ cells, whereas the Janus‐activated kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (JAK/STAT1) signaling pathway was markedly activated.

Nanoscale Strain-Hardening of Keratin Fibres

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Mammalian appendages such as hair, quill and wool have a unique structure composed of a cuticle, a cortex and a medulla. The cortex, responsible for the mechanical properties of the fibers, is an assemblage of spindle-shaped keratinized cells bound together by a lipid/protein sandwich called the cell membrane complex. Each cell is itself an assembly of

A non-linear hardening model based on two coupled internal hardening variables: formulation and implementation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
An elasto-plasticity model with coupled hardening variables of strain type is presented. In the theoretical framework of generalized associativity, the formulation of this model is based on the introduction of two hardening variables with a coupled ...

Mycobacterial cell division arrest and smooth‐to‐rough envelope transition using CRISPRi‐mediated genetic repression systems

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
CRISPRI‐mediated gene silencing and phenotypic exploration in nontuberculous mycobacteria. In this Research Protocol, we describe approaches to control, monitor, and quantitatively assess CRISPRI‐mediated gene silencing in M. smegmatis and M. abscessus model organisms.

Multi-stage strain-hardening behavior of dual-phase steels: A review

open access: yesJournal of Materials Research and Technology
Regardless of the abundant studies that have been published on various characteristics of dual-phase (DP) steels, a comprehensive review paper on the strain-hardening behavior of such materials is still lacking.

A material model for warm forming of aluminium sheet [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
A material model has been developed to simulate the warm forming of Al–Mg\ud sheet. Both the hardening behaviour, including temperature and strain rate effects, and the\ud biaxial stress–strain response of the sheet are considered.

On stress resultant plasticity and viscoplasticity for metal plates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In this work we derive elastoplastic and elastoviscoplastic finite element formulations for stress resultant bending analysis of thin metal plates. The principle of maximum plastic dissipation is used to obtain the ingredients of the small strain stress ...

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 ...

Plastic instability in complex strain paths predicted by advanced constitutive equations [PDF]

open access: yes
The present paper aims at predicting plastic instabilities under complex loading histories using an advanced sheet metal forming limit model. The onset of localized necking is computed using the Marciniak-Kuczinslcy (MK) analysis [I] with a physically ...
