Mechano-electro-optical conversion dynamics in mechanoluminescence and its application in remote human–robot interaction

open access: yesPhotoniX
Mechanoluminescence (ML) is bringing a paradigm-shifting for next-generation light-based human–robot interaction. However, the overlooked character of ML temporal dynamic response remains a critical barrier to overcoming the limitation of mechano-optical

Frictional and Particle Emission Behavior of Different Brake Disk Concepts Correlated with Optical Pin Surface Characterization

open access: yesAtmosphere
Brake wear emissions can be reduced by altering the surface of brake disks. A parametric study using a gray cast iron and a laser-cladded brake disk was performed in a pin-on-disk experiment with integrated optical pin surface characterization and ...

Geodesics on an invariant surface [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We study the geodesics on an invariant surface of a three dimensional Riemannian manifold. The main results are: the characterization of geodesic orbits; a Clairaut's relation and its geometric interpretation in some remarkable three dimensional spaces ...

Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.

Production and Tribological Characterization of Tailored Laser-Induced Surface 3D Microtextures

open access: yesLubricants, 2019
The aim of the present study was firstly to determine the manufacturing feasibility of a specific surface 3D-microtexturing on steel through an ultra-short pulsed laser, and secondly to investigate the tribological properties under 2 different ...

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

Design of V-shaped cantilevers for enhanced multifrequency AFM measurements

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Nanotechnology, 2020
As the application of atomic force microscopy (AFM) in soft matter characterization has expanded, the use of different types of cantilevers for these studies have also increased.

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.
