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 ...

Mechanical behavior of HTCE propellant: Dependence on strain rate and temperature

open access: yesPolymer Testing
High-solid-content polymer composites such as solid propellants are widely used in different fields. Although the proportion of polymer components in the material is relatively low, the mechanical influence of polymers on composite materials is crucial ...

Effects of different preservation on the mechanical properties of cortical bone under quasi-static and dynamic compression

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
Introduction: Mechanical properties of biological tissue are important for numerical simulations. Preservative treatments are necessary for disinfection and long-term storage when conducting biomechanical experimentation on materials.

A Degradation Function Consistent with Cocks–Ashby Porosity Kinetics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The load carrying capacity of ductile materials degrades as a function of porosity, stress state and strain-rate. The effect of these variables on porosity kinetics is captured by the Cocks–Ashby model; however, the Cocks–Ashby model does not account for

Two-state shear diagrams for complex fluids in shear flow [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
The possible "phase diagrams'' for shear-induced phase transitions between two phases are collected. We consider shear-thickening and shear-thinning fluids, under conditions of both common strain rate and common stress in the two phases, and present the ...

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

Frequency Domain Simulations of Charge-Density-Wave Strains: Comparison with Electro-Optic Measurements

open access: yes, 2007
We have studied changes in charge-density-wave strain under application of square-wave currents of variable amplitude and frequency by numerically solving the phase-slip augmented diffusion model introduced by Adelman et al (Phys. Rev. B 53, 1833 (1996)).

On probabilistic aspects in the dynamic degradation of ductile materials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Dynamic loadings produce high stress waves leading to the spallation of ductile materials such as aluminum, copper, magnesium or tantalum. The main mechanism used herein to explain the change of the number of cavities with the stress rate is nucleation ...

YAP1::TFE3 mediates endothelial‐to‐mesenchymal plasticity in epithelioid hemangioendothelioma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The YAP1::TFE3 fusion protein drives endothelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EndMT) plasticity, resulting in the loss of endothelial characteristics and gain of mesenchymal‐like properties, including resistance to anoikis, increased migratory capacity, and loss of contact growth inhibition in endothelial cells.

Effects of boundary condition and cell structure on dynamic axial crushing honeycomb

open access: yesMechanical Engineering Journal, 2018
The dynamic axially crushing behavior of metal honeycombs was studied with placing emphasis on the effects of boundary condition and cell structure on its characteristics as an energy absorber. Numerical honeycomb models of some metal foil materials were
