Nuclear Quantum Effects in Water Reorientation and Hydrogen-Bond Dynamics

We combine classical and ring polymer molecular dynamics simulations with the molecular jump model to provide a molecular description of the nuclear quantum effects (NQEs) on water reorientation and hydrogen-bond dynamics in liquid H2O and D2O. We show tha ...

Experimental investigation into bond behavior of FRP-to-concrete under mixed-mode I/II loading

Ardalan Hosseini

The main purpose of the current study is to investigate bond behavior of fiber reinforced polymer (FRP)-to-concrete under mixed-mode I/II loading. To attain this end, 150 × 150 × 330 mm concrete prisms were cast and strengthened by carbon fiber reinforced ...

Rayleigh-Taylor instability under curved substrates: An optimal transient growth analysis

François Gallaire, Gioele Mariano Nicolò Balestra, Pierre-Thomas Paul Brun

We investigate the stability of thin viscous films coated on the inside of a horizontal cylindrical substrate. In such a case, gravity acts both as a stabilizing force through the progressive drainage of the film and as a destabilizing force prone to form ...

Bonded sleeve connections for joining tubular GFRP beam to steel member: Numerical investigation with experimental validation

Zhujing Zhang, Yu Bai, Chao Wu

This paper investigates an innovative bonded sleeve connection for joining tubular GFRP and steel members. Experimental results focused on mechanical responses of beam-to-column specimens using bonded sleeve connections and conventional steel angle connect ...

Uranium(IV) Terminal Hydrosulfido and Sulfido Complexes: The Nature of the Uranium–Sulfur Bond

Marinella Mazzanti, Julie Renée Michelle Andrez

Herein, we report the synthesis and characterization of a series of terminal uranium(IV) hydrosulfido and sulfido complexes, supported by the hexadentate, tacn-based ligand framework (Ad,MeArO)3tacn3– (= trianion of 1,4,7-tris(3-adamantyl-5-methyl-2-hydrox ...

Competing Interactions in the Self-Assembly of NC-Ph-3-CN Molecules on Cu(111)

Harald Brune, Marina Pivetta, Giulia Elisabetta Pacchioni

We report on low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy measurements on NC-Ph-3-CN molecules adsorbed at 300 K on a Cu(111) surface. Upon cooling, the molecules form chain and honeycomb structures, incorporating Cu adatoms supplied by t ...

Probing the electronic and geometric structure of ferric and ferrous myoglobins in physiological solutions by Fe K-edge absorption spectroscopy

Majed Chergui, Ursula Röthlisberger, Ivano Tavernelli, Thomas James Penfold, Marco Eli Reinhard, Frederico Alves Lima

We present an iron K-edge X-ray absorption study of carboxymyoglobin (MbCO), nitrosylmyoglobin (MbNO), oxymyoglobin (MbO(2)), cyanomyoglobin (MbCN), aquomet myoglobin (metMb) and unligated myoglobin (deoxyMb) in physiological media. The analysis of the XAN ...

Tension Chord Model Modification for Uniaxial Unloading and Reloading in Elastic and Plastic States

Thomas Keller, Robert Koppitz

The bond properties between concrete and steel reinforcement influence structural stiffness and deformation behavior as a result of tension stiffening. In specific cases, the load-bearing capacity of engineering structures depends on the deformation behavi ...
