Effect of Reinforced System by Palm Fibers on the Mechanical and Insulation (Thermal and Acoustic) Properties for Polymer Composite Materials [PDF]

Engineering and Technology Journal, 2013
The research aims to prepare composite materials of unsaturated polyester resin reinforced by palm fiber extracted from different locations (Trunk, Petiole (bases leaflet date palm tree), Rachis and Panicle) of the palm tree in Iraq.

Matrigel inhibits elongation and drives endoderm differentiation in aggregates of mouse embryonic stem cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Stem cell‐based embryo models (SCBEMs) are valuable to study early developmental milestones. Matrigel, a basement membrane matrix, is a critical substrate used in various SCBEM protocols, but its role in driving stem cell lineage commitment is not clearly defined.

Boundaries of photosynthesis: adaptations of carbon fixation in extreme environments

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Photosynthesis faces challenges from environmental extremes of temperature, pH, and salinity, limiting gas diffusion, modifying membrane fluidity, and destabilizing photochemical and biochemical reactions. Photosynthetic organisms have evolved unique adaptations overcoming these stresses and maintaining their photosynthetic activity.

The impact of frailty syndrome on skeletal muscle histology: preventive effects of exercise

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Frailty syndrome exacerbates skeletal muscle degeneration via increased ECM deposition and myofiber loss. This study, using a murine model, demonstrates that endurance exercise attenuates these histopathological alterations, preserving muscle integrity. Findings support exercise as a viable strategy to counteract frailty‐induced musculoskeletal decline

Studying the nonlinear properties and strain-rate sensitivity of SiC short fiber-reinforced Al matrix composites

Science and Engineering of Composite Materials, 2017
Stress-strain analysis has been an interesting issue for the mechanical design of composite structures. In this paper, a three-dimensional mechanical model based on generalized method of cells is presented to study the thermal residual stress and loading

Thermal Recirculation Modeling for Power Plants in an Estuarine Environment

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2017
Many power plants require large quantities of water for cooling purposes. The water taken from the source water body (e.g., lakes, estuaries, bays and rivers) circulates through the plant and returns to the source through outfall with a higher ...

Knockout of the mitoribosome rescue factors Ict1 or Mtrfr is viable in zebrafish but not mice: compensatory mechanisms underlying each factor's loss

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Mitochondria contain two mitoribosome rescue factors, ICT1 and MTRFR (C12orf65). ICT1 also functions as a mitoribosomal protein in mice and humans, and its loss is lethal. Although Mtrfr knockout mice could not be generated, knockout zebrafish lines for ict1 and mtrfr were established.

Using Flaming as an Alternative Method to Vine Suckering

Agronomy, 2019
Suckering is the process of removing the suckers that grapevine trunks put out in the spring. Suckering by hand is costly and time consuming and requires constant bending down, getting up and making repetitive motions.

Thermal Supersymmetry in Thermal Superspace [PDF]

arXiv, 1998
Thermal superspace is characterized by Grassmann variables which are time-dependent and antiperiodic in imaginary time, with a period given by the inverse temperature. The thermal superspace approach allows to define thermal superfields obeying consistent boundary conditions and to formulate a ``super-KMS'' condition for superfield propagators.

Profiling the effect of low frequency mechanical vibration on the metabolic and oxidative stress responses of A431 carcinoma

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
20 Hz mechanical vibration induced A431 cancer cells' apoptosis without such effect on other healthy cell lines of L929 and C2C12. Lowered glucose consumption is observed specifically in A431. The expressions of ROS, HMGB1, and HSP1 levels initially increase and subsequently decrease in the cancer cell line, as opposed to L929 and C2C12, which ...
