An investigation of friction-based tendon sheath model appropriate for control purposes by Tjahjowidodo, Tegoeh, Lau, Michael Wai Shing, Phee, Soo Jay, Do, T. N.

“…A new dynamic friction model that allows accurate description of friction lag and hysteresis behavior in two regimes, i.e. presliding and sliding regimes, for a sheath in arbitrary configuration such as helical and spatial shape has been developed. In both regimes, an advanced set of velocity and acceleration dependent functions in a form of the Stribeck function and the modified normalized Bouc–Wen model are used to model friction characteristics between the tendon and the sheath. …”

Influence of outer membrane c-type cytochromes on particle size and activity of extracellular nanoparticles produced by Shewanella oneidensis by Kjelleberg, Staffan, Cao, Bin, Ng, Chun Kiat, Sivakumar, Krishnakumar, Liu, Xin, Madhaiyan, Munusamy, Ji, Lianghui, Yang, Liang, Tang, Chuyang Y., Song, Hao

“…The metal-reducing bacterium Shewanella oneidensis is capable of reducing various metal(loid)s and produces nanoparticles (NPs) extracellularly, in which outer membrane c-type cytochromes (OMCs) have been suggested to play important roles. The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of the OMCs, that is, MtrC and OmcA, on the size and activity of the extracellular silver NPs (AgNPs) and silver sulfide NPs (Ag2S NPs) produced by S. oneidensis MR-1. …”

Agamben's understanding of time and its implications for Christology by Wright, O

“…Whilst the contemporary reception of Agamben tends to treat these earlier theological discussions as anomalies, it is clear from the relative silence which has greeted the more recent works that a consistent force of theological thinking has not yet been perceived. </p> <p>The facet of “time” that I will investigate is limited to Agamben’s focus, namely time as it is experienced by human life in the present. …”

MAIT cells play a role in liver tissue repair via growth factor secretion by Sayaf, K, Tasin, I, Akther, HD, Garner, LC, Ramamurthy, N, Hackstein, CP, Russo, FP, Klenerman, P

“…These cells express transcriptional signatures associated with tissue repair both in vitro and in vivo, even though the direct mediators of MAIT cell-directed tissue repair in human tissues have not been defined. The aim of our study is to identify such factors and their in vivo relevance, especially in liver injury and regeneration.…”
