Dynamics of vitrimers: defects as a highway to stress relaxation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We propose a coarse-grained model to investigate stress relaxation in star-polymer networks induced by dynamic bond exchange processes. We show how the swapping mechanism, once activated, allows the network to reconfigure, exploring distinct topological ...

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

Experimental study on rheological properties of serrate discontinuity under stepwise loading

open access: yesScientific Reports
Serrate discontinuity creep and stress relaxation tests are conducted to analyze the differences and relationships between creep, relaxation, and long-term strength using the same normal stress and shear stress levels.

Stress relaxation behavior of sandstone considering thermal-damage after loading–unloading histories [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Advances
The time-dependent behavior of rocks is crucial for the long-term stability of geotechnical structures, particularly concerning stress relaxation under coupled thermo-mechanical conditions.

Facilitating relaxation and stress reduction in healthy participants through a virtual reality intervention: study protocol for a non-inferiority randomized controlled trial

open access: yesTrials, 2022
Background Repeated or chronic stress is considered a major source of disease, in terms of both somatic and mental illnesses. The prevention of stress-related disease by interventions for relaxation has thus increased societal relevance.

Contribution to Viscosity from the Structural Relaxation via the Atomic Scale Green-Kubo Stress Correlation Function

open access: yes, 2017
We studied the connection between the structural relaxation and viscosity for a binary model of repulsive particles in the supercooled liquid regime.

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.

Transverse relaxation characteristic and stress relaxation model considering molecular chains of HTPB coating based on pre-strained thermal aging

open access: yesDefence Technology, 2021
In order to accurately describe the transverse relaxation characteristic and stress relaxation modulus of HTPB coating during pre-strain thermal aging process, a one month thermal aging test was carried out at 70 °C with pre-strain of 0%, 3%, 6% and 9 ...

The immediate effects of 10-minute relaxation training on salivary immunoglobulin A (s-IgA) and mood state for Japanese female medical co-workers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
This study examined the effects of relaxation training on salivary IgA (s-IgA) and mood state in Japanese female medical workers. Participants were enrolled and assigned to relaxation or control groups.

Peroxidasin enables melanoma immune escape by inhibiting natural killer cell cytotoxicity

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Peroxidasin (PXDN) is secreted by melanoma cells and binds the NK cell receptor NKG2D, thereby suppressing NK cell activation and cytotoxicity. PXDN depletion restores NKG2D signaling and enables effective NK cell–mediated melanoma killing. These findings identify PXDN as a previously unrecognized immune evasion factor and a potential target to improve
