Intelligent Speed Assistance: an on-road evaluation

open access: yesTraffic Safety Research
Although approximately 29% of traffic fatalities involve excessive speed, individual vehicle technology that can reduce speeding has not been widely studied or implemented in the United States (U.S).

The impact of driving conditions on light-duty vehicle emissions in real-world driving

open access: yesTransport, 2020
To accurately estimate the effect of driving conditions on vehicle emissions, an on-road light-duty vehicle emission platform was established based on OEM-2100TM, and each second data of mass emission rate corresponding to the driving conditions were ...

Tribological Properties of Cylinder Block/Valve Plate Interface of Axial Piston Pump on the Tribometer

open access: yesChinese Journal of Mechanical Engineering, 2021
The tribological properties of cylinder block/valve plate is an important consideration in the design of axial piston pump. The effect of materials and heat treatment on friction and wear properties has been studied in depth. Engineering experiences show

Vibration Suppression of Railway Vehicle Carbody with Piezoelectric Elements

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Mechanical Design, Systems, and Manufacturing, 2007
Piezoelectric elements, which are electrically connected to external shunt circuits, are introduced to suppress bending vibration of a scale model of a railway vehicle. The authors proposed two types of shunt circuits aiming at practical use. One circuit

Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.

Automated Vehicles are Expected to Increase Driving and Emissions Without Policy Intervention [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Researchers at UC Davis explored what an automated vehicle future in the San Francisco Bay Area might look like by simulating:1) A 100% personal automated vehicle future and its effects on travel and greenhouse emissions.2) The introduction of an ...

Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

PARP inhibition and pharmacological ascorbate demonstrate synergy in castration‐resistant prostate cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Pharmacologic ascorbate (vitamin C) increases ROS, disrupts cellular metabolism, and induces DNA damage in CRPC cells. These effects sensitize tumors to PARP inhibition, producing synergistic growth suppression with olaparib in vitro and significantly delayed tumor progression in vivo. Pyruvate rescue confirms ROS‐dependent activity.
