A helical inner scaffold provides a structural basis for centriole cohesion

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg, Davide Gambarotto, Paul Guichard, Virginie Hamel

The ninefold radial arrangement of microtubule triplets (MTTs) is the hallmark of the centriole, a conserved organelle crucial for the formation of centrosomes and cilia. Although strong cohesion between MTTs is critical to resist forces applied by ciliary ...

The zaojing: review of a unique wooden construction typology

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Jingxian Ye

The zaojing is an ancient Chinese construction system consisting of a dome-shaped assembly of interlocked wooden pieces. These structures are placed above live performance spaces to enhance sound diffusion while creating background scenery. Existing zaojin ...

Force and Shape Control Strategies for Minimum Energy Adaptive Structures

Gennaro Senatore, Arka Prabhata Reksowardojo

This work presents force and shape control strategies for adaptive structures subjected to quasi-static loading. The adaptive structures are designed using an integrated structure-control optimization method developed in previous work, which produces minim ...

New insights on the structure of alpha-synuclein fibrils using cryo-electron microscopy

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg, Dongchun Ni, Ricardo Cesar Guerrero Ferreira

Fibrils of alpha-synuclein are significant components of cellular inclusions associated with several neuropathological disorders including Parkinson’s disease, multiple system atrophy and dementia with Lewy bodies. In recent years, technological advances i ...

Experimental Testing of a Small-Scale Truss Beam That Adapts to Loads Through Large Shape Changes

Ian Smith, Gennaro Senatore, Arka Prabhata Reksowardojo

Adaptive structures have the ability to modify their shape and internal forces through sensing and actuation in order to maintain optimal performance under changing actions. Previous studies have shown that substantial whole-life energy savings with respec ...

Restoration of ancient Chinese opera spiral wooden domes, accounts of field practice

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Jingxian Ye

The zaojing is a wooden construction system that covers opera stages for rain protection and sound control. Zaojings in China display a diverse range of geometric expressions, delicate manufacturing, structural behaviours, and acoustic qualities. Despite t ...
