This paper presents a comparative study of the geometrical optimization of mechanical wedge-barrel anchors for prestressed carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) rods. Various anchor configurations were simulated using three-dimensional finite-element (FE) ...
Five years in the making, a massive oil spill of 1 million barrels is imminent in the Red Sea off the coast of Yemen. Emergent action must be taken by the United Nations and its International Maritime Organization (IMO) to remove the oil, despite regional ...
The reaction of cis-blocked, square-planar MII complexes with tetratopic N-donor ligands is known to give metallasupramolecular assemblies of the formula M2nLn. These assemblies typically adopt barrel-like structures, with the ligands paneling the sides of ...
Quantitative information regarding the endmember composition of the gas and oil that flowed from the Macondo well during the Deepwater Horizon oil spill is essential for determining the oil flow rate, total oil volume released, and trajectories and fates o ...
Proteins have the ability to assemble in multimeric states to perform their specific biological function. Unfortunately, characterizing experimentally these structures at atomistic resolution is usually difficult. For this reason, in silico methodologies a ...
The correct assembly of macromolecular protein complexes such as ribosomes or multisubunit membrane channels is essential for their function. Alterations in the process can lead to disease either by loss of function or by acquisition of toxic function. How ...
