Finite Element Modeling of a Thermoplastic Polyurethane Ball for Rolling Seismic Isolation

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Elastomeric‐Ball Pendulum (EBP) system, which consists of an elastomeric ball rolling on a spherical concrete surface, has been proposed as an isolation system for lightweight structures. Experimental tests have shown that the mechanics of such a rolling ball are remarkably complicated because the vertical load changes the shape of the ...

A novel semiautomated method for the estimation of free fatty acid in serum or plasma

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1978
A modification of the semiautomated assay method of Antonis (1965. J. Lipid Res. 6: 307–312) for free fatty acid is presented. Free fatty acids are extracted from serum or plasma into di-n-butyl ether–2-methoxyethanol; the extract is almost free from ...

HARP: a database of structural impacts of systematic missense mutations in drug targets of Mycobacterium leprae

open access: yesComputational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2020
Computational Saturation Mutagenesis is an in-silico approach that employs systematic mutagenesis of each amino acid residue in the protein to all other amino acid types, and predicts changes in thermodynamic stability and affinity to the other subunits ...

Teledermatology (Live Video Conferencing) Network Devoted to Competition Swimmers in France

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Dermatology was one of the medical specialties that pioneered telemedicine. Store‐and‐forward and live video conferencing (LVC) solutions have been developed throughout the world in response to structural challenges (e.g. medical deserts) or situational needs (e.g. COVID‐19 pandemic).

Multiview System for Tracking a Fast Moving Object Against Complex Backgrounds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Tracking the real world coordinate of a fast moving object against a complex background is very challenging. When designing a multi-view system for this purpose, one key consideration is the arrangement of the cameras such that the object can be ...
