Tracking degradation of argillaceous rocks using bender elements

open access: yes, 2011
The results of a comprehensive experimental program focused on the study of progressive degradation processes on a low permeability argillaceous rock induced by hydraulic cycles is presented in the paper. Relative humidity cycles were applied with vapour transfer technique, and bender elements were used to evaluate the evolution of shear stiffness ...

A light‐triggered Time‐Resolved X‐ray Solution Scattering (TR‐XSS) workflow with application to protein conformational dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Time‐resolved X‐ray solution scattering captures how proteins change shape in real time under near‐native conditions. This article presents a practical workflow for light‐triggered TR‐XSS experiments, from data collection to structural refinement. Using a calcium‐transporting membrane protein as an example, the approach can be broadly applied to study ...

Single‐molecule DNA flow‐stretch assays for high‐throughput DNA–protein interaction studies

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We describe an optimised single‐molecule DNA flow‐stretch assay that visualises DNA–protein interactions in real time. Linear DNA fragments are tethered to a surface and stretched by buffer flow for fluorescence imaging. Using λ and φX174 DNA, this protocol enhances reproducibility and accessibility, providing a versatile approach for studying diverse ...

Dealing with disruptions in railway track inspection using risk-based machine learning

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Unplanned track inspections can be a direct consequence of any disruption to the operation of on-board track geometry monitoring activities. A novel response strategy to enhance the value of the information for supplementary track measurements is thus ...

Hybrid Bayesian-Wiener process in track geometry degradation analysis

open access: yes, 2017
Attoh-Okine, Nii O.Globally, track-caused accidents are a major factor of train derailments. Rail fatigue, rail wear, and track geometry defects are examples of track failure mechanisms.

Long‐term hippocampal alterations and cognitive impairment in a murine model of surgical sepsis

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Using a mouse model of surgical sepsis, we tested long‐term memory and analyzed the transcriptome of single cells isolated from the hippocampus. Survivor mice showed worse memory, loss of certain brain cell subpopulations, and abnormal immune cell activity—suggesting that post‐sepsis brain alterations may be linked to cognitive deficits.

Ballast Contamination Mechanisms: A Criterial Review of Characterisation and Performance Indicators

open access: yesInfrastructures, 2020
Across the world, ballasted railway tracks are utilised extensively due to their cost efficiency, ease of drainage, and capacity to withstand cyclic imposed loadings from heavy trains.

Prediction of Track Geometry Degradation by Artificial Neural Networks

open access: yes, 2019
Accurate prediction of track geometry degradation is essential for an efficient track geometry maintenance planning and scheduling. Track geometry prediction is a complex task as many quantitative and qualitative parameters affect track geometry ...
