Tidal bars in estuaries are poorly understood compared to fluvial bars.There is limited theory that predicts tidal bar dimensions.Moreover, where fluvial channels bifurcate around bars, tidal channels around bars often develop either flood- or ebb-dominance which remains unexplained.Tidal experiments are rare and have not reproduced these phenomena
There is increasing evidence that the catch bond mechanism, where binding becomes stronger under tensile force, is a common property among non-covalent interactions between biological molecules that are exposed to mechanical force in vivo.Here, by using the multi-protein tip complex of the mannose-binding type 1 fimbriae of Escherichia coli, we sho
Ductile damage in dual-phase steels deteriorates the mechanical properties, resulting in a lowered crashworthiness and a shorter life-time under cyclic loading.However, most works focus on the observation of damage under simple strain paths, even though work pieces are often subjected to combined strain paths during forming.In Masks this work, we s
Optical coherence tomography Dimmer Module (OCT) is an inline process monitoring technology for laser welding with various applications in the pre-, in-, and post-process.In-process monitoring with OCT focuses on the measurement of weld depth by the placement of a singular measurement beam into the keyhole.A laterally scanned measurement beam gives
The consequences of aneuploidy have traditionally been studied in cell and animal models in which the extrachromosomal DNA is from the same species.Here, we explore a fundamental question concerning the impact of aneuploidy on systemic metabolism using a non-mosaic transchromosomic mouse model RCA/AV Cables (TcMAC21) carrying a near-complete human
