Abstract:
The objective of the present paper is to show that predictions of the conventional strain gradient theories do not coincide with some general physical expectations when large strains and geometry changes should be considered. As an alternative, it is proposed to use strain rate gradient theories of plasticity. One possible theory of this type is formulated as a formal modification of a strain gradient theory of plasticity. The problem of hollow sphere expansion at large strains is solved for both the strain gradient and strain rate gradient theories of plasticity. Comparison of these solutions

This research note reports on a study that examined the psychological strains among migrant workers in China, and the potential negative life impact of these strains. It was hypothesized that psychological strains, resulting from social and psychological conflicts (value strain, aspiration strain, deprivation strain and coping strain), would be associated with greater psychological distress. Most of the sampled migrant workers experienced at least one of four types of strain. Independently, greater levels of all four types of strain were related to elevated self-reported psychological distress

Abstract:
The recent epidemic in the Americas caused by Zika virus (ZIKV), Asian lineage, spurred the research towards a better understanding of how ZIKV infection affects the host immune response. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of Asian and East African ZIKV strain infection on the induction of IFN and proinflammatory and Th2 cytokines in human PBMC. We reported a slight modulation of type II IFN in PBMC exposed to Asian strain, but not to African strain, and a complete lack of type I and III IFN induction by both strains, suggesting the ability of ZIKV to evade the IFN system not on

Abstract:
Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) of Rhizobium galegae, a symbiotically nitrogen-fixing species of root-nodule bacteria, were isolated by the phenol-water method from strain HAMBI 1461, the LPS of which resembled enterobacterial smooth type LPS, and from strains HAMBI 1174 and HAMBI 1208, the LPSs of which resembled rough type LPS. The results of PAGE analysis of LPSs, Bio-Gel P2 gel filtration of polysaccharide fractions and the presence of deoxysugars and 4-O-methyl-deoxysugar both in the rough and smooth LPSs suggested that rough LPS contained a short O-antigenic polysaccharide for which we propose

This assay relied on detection of polymorphisms in the ribosomal internal spacer region (ISR).

Abstract:
Multiple-strain pathogens often establish mixed infections inside the host that result in competition between strains. In vector-borne pathogens, the competitive ability of strains must be measured in both the vertebrate host and the arthropod vector to understand the outcome of competition. Such studies could reveal the existence of trade-offs in competitive ability between different host types. We used the tick-borne bacterium Borrelia afzelii to test for competition between strains in the rodent host and the tick vector, and to test for a trade-off in competitive ability between these two h

When the MAbs were assayed with five LOS prototype strains by ELISA, all bound to strain 3198 LOS (type III), while six of the MAbs were also reactive with LOSs from strain 1479 (type I), 5657 (type IV), or 7502 (type V).

We introduce a general framework to study the dynamics of multiple strain pathogens that can impart cross–immunity through a variety of structures. We propose two types of immunity and apply them to assess the dynamics of two competing strains. We illustrate this framework using two "visions": the next–to–kin protection (NTKP) approach which assumes that strains confer cross–immunity to next in order (neighboring) strains, while providing no protection against all other strains; and the differential protection (DP) approach assumes that individuals randomly gain partial (may be reinfected) and

Abstract:
In the case of many low-cycle multiaxial fatigue criteria, we encounter a mathematical problem of adding vectors of normal and shear strains. Typically, the problem of defining an equivalent strain is solved by weighting factors. Unfortunately, this ignores the fact that these vectors represent other physical quantities: the normal strain is a longitudinal strain, and the shear strain is a rotation angle. Therefore, the goal of the present work was to propose a method of combining different types of strains by adopting a system of complex numbers. The normal strain was defined as the real part
