One of the recently developed methods for measuring mechanical properties of complex structures, like bone, is back-calculation using finite element models. This has been achieved due to emergence of high computing powers and high resolution CT scanners in ...
The local atomic structure around iron atoms of two synthetic analogues of malarial pigment product is characterized by iron K-edge X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy (XAFS). Malarial pigment, also termed hemozoin, is a condensed phase of ferripr ...
Structural health monitoring (SHM) has the potential to provide quantitative and reliable data on the real condition of structures, observe the evolution of their behaviour and detect degradation This paper presents two methodologies for model-free data in ...
Tensegrities are lightweight space reticulated structures composed of cables and struts. Stability is provided by the self-stress state between tensioned and compressed elements. Tensegrity systems have in general low structural damping, leading to challen ...
We have measured a vibrationally-resolved UV spectrum of doubly-protonated gramicidin S (GS) in the gas phase and, subsequently, a highly-resolved, conformer-specific infrared spectra in the 6 μm fingerprint region, using a cold ion trap in combination wit ...
Telomeres, the physical ends of eukaryotes chromosomes are transcribed into telomeric repeat containing RNA (TERRA), a large non-coding RNA of unknown function, which forms an integral part of telomeric heterochromatin. TERRA molecules resemble in sequence ...
In Europe, low back pain (LBP) affects the quality of life of up to 30% of the active population. Although the origin of LBP is not well identified and is probably not unique, epidemiological studies suggest that the severity of the disease is correlated w ...
A method based on the coupling of high resolution size-exclusion liquid chromatography using a polymer stationary phase with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry was developed to study the interactions of two metallodrugs - cisplatin and RAPTA-T - ...
In the solution of fluid-structure interaction (FSI) problems, partitioned procedures are modular algorithms that involve separate fluid and structure solvers that interact in an iterative framework through the exchange of suitable transmission conditions ...

Coverage-dependent self-assembly of rubrene molecules on different noble metal surfaces, Au(111) and Au(100), Ag(111) and Ag(100), is presented. On Au(111), the homochiral supramolecular assemblies evolve with increasing rubrene coverage from very small st ...
