We investigated the role of the evolutionarily conserved protein Lis1 in cell division processes of Caenorhabditis elegans embryos. We identified apparent null alleles of lis-1, which result in defects identical to those observed after inactivation of the ...
An extended reduced order model is presented and applied to analyze global and regional oscillations in BWRs. Stability and semianalytical bifurcation analyses are performed using this model in conjunction with the bifurcation code BIFDD to determine the s ...
At full load, pump-turbines operating in generating mode may experience a cylindrical cavitation vortex rope caused by the swirling flow in the draft tube cone. Under certain conditions, this vortex rope initiates both pressure and power oscillations. The ...

When nutrients are abundant, S. pombe cells grow as rods, dividing by fission after formation of a medially placed cell wall or division septum. Septum formation is triggered by a group of proteins, called the septation initiation network or SIN, that trig ...
Using a drift flux representation for the two-phase flow, a new reduced order model has been developed to simulate density-wave oscillations (DWOs) in a heated channel. This model is then used to perform stability and semi-analytical bifurcation analysis, ...
Boiling water reactor (BWR) stability analysis is usually carried out using large system codes. However, because of the large computational efforts required, such codes cannot in practice be employed for the detailed investigation of the complete manifold ...
The mechanisms orchestrating spatial cell division control remain poorly understood. In animal cells, the position of the mitotic spindle dictates cleavage furrow placement, and thus plays a key role in governing spatial relationships between resulting dau ...
BACKGROUND: Modulation of microtubule dynamics is crucial for proper cell division. While a large body of work has made important contributions to our understanding of the mechanisms governing microtubule dynamics in vitro, much remains to be learned about ...
We present a method to obtain the frequency spectrum of a signal with a nonlinear dynamical system. The dynamical system is composed of a pool of adaptive frequency oscillators with negative mean-field coupling. For the frequency analysis, the synchronizat ...
The septation initiation network (SIN) triggers the onset of cytokinesis in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe by promoting contraction of the medially placed F-actin ring. SIN signaling is regulated by the polo-like kinase plo1p and by cdc2p, the ...
