Biophysical approaches for studying viral entry

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Viruses infect all living organisms and have been responsible for major epidemics and pandemics. Their ongoing evolutionary battle with host defenses creates a constant need for improved tools to study viral behavior. Advancing methods to probe viral attachment, fusion, and genome release deepen our understanding of how infections begin and support the

A New Technique for Quality Assessment of Railway Ballast Materials [PDF]

International Journal of Railway Research, 2018
The influence of main quality tests on the overall quality of railway ballast materials is assessed in this study. The need to integrate all acceptance tests in a unified manner for precise evaluation of ballast quality is identified, and a technique of ...

A Novel Approach of Identifying Railway Track Rail’s Modal Frequency From Wheel-Rail Excitation and Its Application in High-Speed Railway Monitoring

IEEE Access, 2019
High-speed railway track defects such as rail corrugation, wheel polygonal wear, and rail fastener clip failure are closely related to the modal frequency of the track structure.

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Determination of the level of separate rail failure using the indicator of their reliability

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
During the operation, the upper railway track structure constantly tends to age, which includes the increasing number of failures. This process is controlled by the track maintenance system, which provides for the current maintenance of the track in a ...

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Modelling stem cell differentiation related processes—A practical overview for biologists

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Stem cell differentiation is complex and difficult to control experimentally. This review introduces suitable computational modelling approaches that can support stem cell research, from mechanistic ODE and abstract models to multiscale and deep learning methods.

Quantifying erasure and interference from adjacent tracks in heat-assisted magnetic recording [PDF]

AIP Advances
With track spacing in heat-assisted magnetic recording approaching the width of the reader and the thermal spot, the areal density capability is significantly penalized by interference and erasure from adjacent tracks.

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Determination of the work scope for removal of speed restrictions related to the track plan

Nauka ta progres transportu, 2012
The greatest number of restrictions is related to the parameters and condition of curvilinear track sections. The technique for determination of cost of reorganization of curves at introduction of high-speed traffic for difficult sections of the track ...
