Abstract:
An approach is proposed to evaluate the confidence factor implicit in structures over an interval of time, considering that the structural capacity and structural demand vary simultaneously over time. A new closed-form mathematical expression of the confidence factor over a time interval is used, assuming that the structural capacity degradation is represented by a second degree polynomial function in the total interval. This formulation is made in accordance with the demand and capacity factor design format. Confidence factors at the ends of different time intervals are evaluated for an old t

Abstract:
Corticosteroids, efficient drugs for the treatment of severe asthma, may have numerous side effects. We investigated the effects of 7 days of treatment with triamcinolone (1.2 mg x kg(-1) x day(-1)) on the epithelial structure, tracheal smooth muscle cross-sectional area and contractility in the rat. The corticosteroid-injected rats were compared to pair-fed, and pair-weighed animals. Histological studies were performed on transverse sections of glutaraldehyde-fixed tracheal blocks embedded in plastic. In the preparations taken from corticosteroid-injected, pair-fed and pair-weighed animals, p

Abstract:
SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus uses for entry to human host cells a SARS-CoV receptor of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE2) that catalyzes the conversion of angiotensin II into angiotensin (1-7). To understand the effect of ACE2 missense variants on protein structure, stability, and function, various bioinformatics tools were used including SIFT, PANTHER, PROVEAN, PolyPhen2.0, I. Mutant Suite, MUpro, SWISS-MODEL, Project HOPE, ModPred, QMEAN, ConSurf, and STRING. All twelve ACE2 nsSNPs were analyzed. Six ACE2 high-risk pathogenic nsSNPs (D427Y, R514G, R708W, R710C, R716C, and R768W) were found t

As to the random sonic fatigue problem of thin walled structure of aerospace flight vehicle, estimation method for fatigue life based on Von Mises stress peak probability density is investigated. Assuming that Von Mises stress process satisfies three-parameter Weibull distribution, the peak probability density function of Von Mises stress is derived through the threshold crossing analysis and the peak distribution analysis of stationary random process. According to the Miner linear cumulative damage theory, the method for estimating the fatigue life in the frequency domain is established with

Abstract:
Myc is a transcription factor driving growth and proliferation of cells and involved in the majority of human tumors. Despite a huge body of literature on this critical oncogene, our understanding of the exact molecular determinants and mechanisms that underlie its function is still surprisingly limited. Indubitably though, its crucial and non-redundant role in cancer biology makes it an attractive target. However, achieving successful clinical Myc inhibition has proven challenging so far, as this nuclear protein is an intrinsically disordered polypeptide devoid of any classical ligand binding

Abstract:
Scaling Bayesian optimisation (BO) to high-dimensional search spaces is a active and open research problems particularly when no assumptions are made on function structure. The main reason is that at each iteration, BO requires to find global maximisation of acquisition function, which itself is a non-convex optimization problem in the original search space. With growing dimensions, the computational budget for this maximisation gets increasingly short leading to inaccurate solution of the maximisation. This inaccuracy adversely affects both the convergence and the efficiency of BO. We propose

Abstract:
Allometric scaling is closely related to the morphology, function and behavior of trees, which are of great significance to the study of ecology. However, most of the traditional allometric scaling studies used the scalar attributes of trees, without considering the 3D vector mode of tree growth. In order to investigate the allometric relationships between branch lengths in 3D vector mode, in this study, an accurate and detailed quantitative structure model was used to reconstruct tree architectures from 3D point cloud data collected by terrestrial laser scanning and extract the structural par

‘Inner mitochondrial membrane peptidase 2 like’ (IMMP2L) is a nuclear-encoded mitochondrial peptidase that has been conserved through evolutionary history, as has its target enzyme, ‘mitochondrial glycerol phosphate dehydrogenase 2’ (GPD2). IMMP2L is known to cleave the mitochondrial transit peptide from GPD2 and another nuclear-encoded mitochondrial respiratory-related protein, cytochrome C1 (CYC1). However, it is not known whether IMMP2L peptidase activates or alters the activity or respiratory-related functions of GPD2 or CYC1. Previous investigations found compelling evidence of behavioura

Abstract:
This work is aimed at studying the problem of maintaining the sustainability of a cooperative solution in an n-person hybrid differential game. Specifically, we consider a differential game whose payoff function is discounted with a discounting function that changes its structure with time. We solve the problem of time-inconsistency of the cooperative solution using a so-called imputation distribution procedure, which was adjusted for this general class of differential games. The obtained results are illustrated with a specific example of a differential game with random duration and a hybrid c

Projection pursuit is a classical exploratory data analysis method to detect interesting low-dimensional structures in multivariate data. Originally, projection pursuit was applied mostly to data of moderately low dimension. Motivated by contemporary applications, we here study its properties in high-dimensional settings. Specifically, we analyze the asymptotic properties of projection pursuit on structureless multivariate Gaussian data with an identity covariance, as both dimension p and sample size n tend to infinity, with p/n→γ∈[0,∞]. Our main results are that (i) if γ=∞, then there exist p

The epidemic threshold corresponds to the phase transition where a giant strongly connected component appears. It is obtained by using the method of the probability generation function.

Navier–Stokes turbulence subject to solid-body rotation is studied by high-resolution direct numerical simulations (DNS) of freely decaying and stationary flows. Setups characterized by different Rossby numbers are considered. In agreement with experimental results strong rotation is found to lead to anisotropy of the direct nonlinear energy flux, which is attenuated primarily in the direction of the rotation axis. In decaying turbulence the evolution of kinetic energy follows an approximate power law with a distinct dependence of the decay exponent on the rotation frequency. A simple phenomen

In order to ensure the reliability of the structural design, it is necessary to know the external loads acting on the structure. In this paper, we propose a novel method to identify the dynamic loads based on function principles in the time domain. Assuming the external load remains constant within one micro segment, we establish a linear relationship between external load and structural response in the micro segments based on the mechanical energy conservation law. Next, the external load is obtained by solving the inverse problem in each micro-segment. Finally, the external load in the whole
