A study of optimization methods for 3D reconstruction from 2D sketches by Kotlanka Ramakrishna.

“…This dissertation studies a specific process “Optimization of geometric reconstruction” in the problem of converting a 2D line drawing in to a 3D model. The solution being offered consists of two parts: identifying the circuits of edges in the drawing that form true faces of the 3D models, and then reconstruct the geometry using these faces as a basic.…”

Investigation on the non-uniform temperature distribution of large-diameter concrete silos under solar radiation by Zhao, Liang, Yang, Zhiyong, Wang, Lijie

“…In this paper, the temperature distribution of a concrete silo exposed to the sunshine was measured on site. A finite element (FE) model was built to analyze the temperature distribution under the sunshine, and the FE model was validated by comparing the yielded temperature field with that obtained on site. …”

New multi-target based therapeutics against an opportunistic superbug by Premkumar, Jayaraman.

“…The stereo-electronic properties such as HOMO, LUMO and MEP maps of the hybrid compounds calculated using quantum chemical methods, correlate well with identified common pharmacophoric features required for the multi-site interactions. Docking and dynamics simulation studies reveal that the designed hybrid compounds have favourable binding affinity and stability in their respective binding-site cavities by forming strong hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions with key active site residues. …”

Structural study of ribosome : 1) structural basis of EF-G in translocation. 2) molecular mechanism of ribosome-dependent toxin YoeB in mRNA cleavage by Chen, Yun

“…Binding with the ribosome and the GTP analogue facilitate the stabilization of EF-G switch I region, resulting in an ordered model of the active site. The positioning of the catalytic His87 into the active site is coupled to the hydrophobic-gate opening and involves the ribosomal 23S rRNA sarcin-ricin loop as well as domain III of EF-G. …”
