Recent advances in engineering characteristics of near-fault ground motions and seismic effects of building structures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Severe damages of civil infrastructures under near-fault ground motions have impelled the community of earthquake engineering to pay intensive attention and investigation to their engineering characteristics and structural seismic effects.

Patient‐Level Barriers and Facilitators to Inpatient Physical Therapy in Adolescents and Young Adults With a Hematological Malignancy: A Qualitative Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Despite their increased risk for functional impairment resulting from cancer and its treatments, few adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with a hematological malignancy receive the recommended or therapeutic dose of exercise per week during inpatient hospitalizations.

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Simulation of Strong Earthquake Ground Motions Based on the Phase Derivative

open access: yesBuildings
A physical method for modeling the phase spectrum of earthquake ground motion is derived by defining relationships between the envelope delay and Fourier amplitude.

Rotational Motions Recorded at Hualien During the 2012 Wutai, Taiwan Earthquake

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2013
It is widely accepted that the effects of rotational motions on seismic waves can be neglected when ground motion is small and might be underestimated in near-fault and/or with extremely large ground motions.

By dawn or dusk—how circadian timing rewrites bacterial infection outcomes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The circadian clock shapes immune function, yet its influence on infection outcomes is only beginning to be understood. This review highlights how circadian timing alters host responses to the bacterial pathogens Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes, and Streptococcus pneumoniae revealing that the effectiveness of immune defense depends not only

Modeling and identification in structural dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
Analytical modeling of structures subjected to ground motions is an important aspect of fully dynamic earthquake-resistant design. In general, linear models are only sufficient to represent structural responses resulting from earthquake motions of small ...

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 ...

Local and global effects of forward directivity

open access: yesGrađevinar, 2013
Previous studies have revealed that near-fault ground motions perpendicular to the fault slip are very destructive for structures. Due to the common use of moment resisting frames and the importance of near-fault strong motions, the local and global ...
