Experimental study on the disintegration of granite residual soil under the combined influence of wetting–drying cycles and acid rain

open access: yesGeomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2019
Granite residual soil has obvious disintegration characteristics, resulting in serious water and soil losses in South China. There is a lack of studies on the disintegration of granite residual soil.

Nonequilibrium Wet–Dry Cycling Acts as a Catalyst for Chemical Reactions

open access: yesThe Journal of Physical Chemistry B
Recent experimental studies suggest that wet-dry cycles and coexisting phases can each strongly alter chemical processes. The mechanisms of why and to which degree chemical processes are altered when subject to evaporation and condensation are unclear. To close this gap, we developed a theoretical framework for non-dilute chemical reactions subject to ...

Reliability Study on FRP Composites Exposed to Wet-Dry Cycles [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2018
Due to lack of research data on the rates of deterioration of FRP properties under a harsh environment exposure, it was pointed out in the design guidelines that the durability of FRP needs to be further developed. Therefore, in this study, 48 FRP samples were tested under wet-dry cycles exposure.

THE EFFECTS OF WATER CONTENT VARIATION ON ADHESION FACTOR OF PILE FOUNDATION IN EXPANSIVE SOIL [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Seasonal change causes variations in soil moisture content. On expansive soil, this condition influences soil moisture content in the active zone, which is approximately in five meters depth.

Cell geometry and membrane protein crowding constrain Escherichia coli growth rate, overflow metabolism, respiration, and maintenance energy

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The physical dimensions and shape of bacterial cells define the surface area available to acquire nutrients and the volume available for synthesizing proteins and DNA. Here, we use computational systems biology to decode the importance of cell geometry as a major determinant of prokaryotic phenotype, including growth rate and metabolic efficiency. This

Attenuation Rate of Unconfined Compressive Strength Due to Drying-Wetting Cycle of a Clayey Soil

open access: yes, 2019
There are different climatic regions of soil that are often influenced by a lot of drying-wetting cycles due to seasonal variations. Such seasonal disparity in water content is termed as a drying-wetting cycle.

Mycobacterial cell division arrest and smooth‐to‐rough envelope transition using CRISPRi‐mediated genetic repression systems

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
CRISPRI‐mediated gene silencing and phenotypic exploration in nontuberculous mycobacteria. In this Research Protocol, we describe approaches to control, monitor, and quantitatively assess CRISPRI‐mediated gene silencing in M. smegmatis and M. abscessus model organisms.

PARP inhibitors induce a senescence phenotype in non‐small cell lung carcinoma cell lines

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Talazoparib is the most potent inducer of senescence among different PARP1 inhibitors in human NSCLC cells. In the absence of PARP, no senescence phenotype was observed, demonstrating that PARP1 is necessary for the induction of senescence by this inhibitor.

Durability of reactive magnesia-activated slag-stabilized low plasticity clay subjected to drying–wetting cycle

open access: yes, 2015
The strength characteristics and hydration products of reactive magnesia (MgO)-activated ground-granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBS) cement and concrete have been extensively investigated in previous studies.
