Nonstationarity analysis in wind-rain-induced vibration of stay cables

Journal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2012
Wind and wind-rain-induced cable vibration are usually nonstationary. Based on the field measured wind data from the Dongting Lake Bridge (DLB) in China, a wavelet-based method was developed to investigate the wind characteristics of wind-rain-induced ...

Parametric study of the along-wind and across-wind responses of tall RC chimneys using the frequency domain analysis [PDF]

Journal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2017
Tall industrial chimneys are sensitive structures to dynamic wind loads. Design codes generally provide approximate equations to estimate the wind-induced response of tall structures.

Modeling the Kinematic Response of Rice under Near-Ground Wind Fields Using the Finite Element Method

Agronomy, 2023
Plant protection drones are commonly encountered in agricultural fields. Their downwash airflow can agitate flexible crops (e.g., rice and wheat) or even cause wind-induced losses.

Research on UAV Downwash Airflow and Wind-Induced Response Characteristics of Rapeseed Seedling Stage Based on Computational Fluid Dynamics Simulation

Agriculture
Multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are increasingly prevalent due to technological advancements. During rapeseed’s seedling stage, UAV-generated airflow, known as wind-induced response, affects leaf movement, tied to airflow speed and ...

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 ...

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 ...

Ligand‐dependent transcriptional heterogeneity in cell cycle gene expression delays G1/S entry

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
EGF and HRG induce distinct G1/S progression programs in ErbB2‐amplified BT474 breast cancer cells. Despite activating the potent ErbB2–ErbB3 heterodimer, HRG does not accelerate cell‐cycle entry. Instead, EGF promotes earlier restriction‐point passage via ERK–FOS signaling, whereas HRG activates the AKT–MYC axis, driving transcriptional heterogeneity ...

Functional comparison of EncB and EncC cargo proteins in iron storage within the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Encapsulins are protein nanocompartments that play an important role in iron storage. In the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin system, two cargo proteins called EncB and EncC contribute to iron mineralization. Here, we show that EncB and EncC generate iron‐containing minerals with distinct chemical compositions, suggesting that the composition of stored ...
