Investigation on permanent deformation of unbound granular material base for permeable pavement: Laboratory and field study

International Journal of Transportation Science and Technology, 2023
Unbound Granular Materials (UGM) base is widely used in permeable pavement structure for infiltration, water storage, and load bearing. However, because of large void content, UGM base easily deforms under repeated loads, resulting in surface rutting and

Requirements for Pavement Base Layers with Unbound Granular Material [PDF]

Slovak Journal of Civil Engineering, 2019
Abstract Pavement structures, layers, and parameters must meet the strict requirements of applicable standards and regulations. The thickness of layers and the choice of materials depend on the factors involved, i.e., the traffic load and climatic factors (changes in temperature, water, rain, snow); they are also dependent on the ...

Strains Comparisons of Unbound Base/Subbase Layer Using Three Elasto-Plastic Models under Repeated Loads

Applied Sciences, 2021
The constitutive model is the crucial part for the finite element analyses. To study the elasto-plastic properties of unbound granular materials (UGMs) under repeated vehicular loads, an elasto-plastic constitutive model called revised spatially ...

Photodoping in Wide‐Bandgap Perovskite Solar Cells With MXenes

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Ultrafast tandem spectroscopy and DFT modeling reveal the separate dynamics and the imbalance of electrons and holes in wide bandgap perovskite solar cells with MXene incorporation. The enhanced photoconversion performances of the devices are traced to photodoping, with selective hole trapping and suppressed recombination of electrons.

A Pollen‐Enhanced Bionic Mechanoreceptor Induced by Asymmetric Ionic Convection in Hydrogel for Sensory‐Augmented Prostheses

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work proposed a pollen‐enhanced bionic mechanoreceptor based on ionic convection. Leveraging the ion anchoring effect of the pollen particle, the output performance could be ∼12 times higher than the original state. By employing deep learning models as AI brains, the feasibility of a sensory‐augmented prosthesis consisting of a pollen‐enhanced ...

Multimodal Imaging Reveals Rapid Catecholamine Uptake and Release by Neutrophils

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We show that immune cells (neutrophils) synthesize, uptake, and store catecholamine neurotransmitters such as dopamine or adrenaline. They also release them in response to specific stimuli (serotonin), which we directly visualize using fluorescent nanosensors. We further demonstrate that catecholamines affect neutrophil functions (NETosis) and platelet

Intramolecular Interactions between Folded and Disordered Regions Shape Ubiquilin Structure and Function

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Ubiquilin (UBQLN), like many other human proteins, contains both well‐folded and disordered regions. Here, we show that intramolecular interactions between disordered regions and folded domains modulate between open and closed topologies of UBQLN proteins, altering their structure and function.

Concrete block pavements in urban and local roads: Analysis of stress-strain condition and proposal for a catalogue

Journal of Traffic and Transportation Engineering (English ed. Online), 2019
Although the construction of block pavements has grown fast in the last decades, there is still a need for simple tools that could be applied to design them.

A Biomimetic Dual‐Targeting Nano‐APA‐Editor Reprograms the 3'UTR Landscape for Tongue Squamous Cell Carcinoma Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study unveils a pathogenic axis in oral cancer where NUDT21 suppresses a tumor suppressor network, prominently PTEN, via 3'UTR lengthening. To exploit this transcriptomic vulnerability, we developed a biomimetic Nano‐APA‐editor. By delivering CRISPR/Cas9, we reprogrammed the global 3'UTR landscape, restoring multi‐target tumor suppression and ...
