Lipid Nanodomains Change Ion Channel Function

August 22, 2017
Author(s)
Michael NMN Weinrich, David Worcester, Sergey M. Bezrukov
Signaling proteins and neurotransmitter receptors associate with cholesterol-rich fractions of cell membranes--lipid rafts. The different lipid environment in rafts can modulate protein function, but evidence for modulation of ion channels is lacking. Here

Modelling and Influencing Human Behaviour in Fire

August 22, 2017
Author(s)
Steve Gwynne, Erica D. Kuligowski, Michael Kinsey, Lynn Hulse
The purpose of this article is to present a conceptual model of human behaviour in fire and its impact on evacuation modelling, life safety analyses, and evacuation procedures. This model is based on a theoretical framework of individual decision-making

Quantitative Scanning Probe Microscopy for Nanomechanical Forensics

August 22, 2017
Author(s)
Frank W. DelRio, Robert F. Cook
Scanning probe microscopy techniques—in particular atomic force microscopy (AFM)—provide a means for imaging objects and measuring mechanical properties at the nano- and micro-scales in a non-destructive manner. In this paper, the previous use of AFM in

A serum small molecule biosignature of radiation exposure from total body irradiated patients

August 21, 2017
Author(s)
Evagelia C. Laiakis, Evan L. Pannkuk, Siddheshwar Chauthe, Yi-Wen Wang, Ming Liang, Tytus Mak, Christopher A. Barker, Giuseppe Astarita, Albert J. Fornace
The potential of radiological accidents and nuclear terrorism have increased the need for development of new rapid biodosimetry methods. In addition, in a clinical setting the issue of an individual's radiosensitivity should be taken into consideration

Blunt scratch strength of polycrystalline alumina

August 21, 2017
Author(s)
Robert F. Cook
A model for the fracture strength of brittle materials controlled by blunt (spherical) scratches is developed and compared with measurements on a polycrystalline alumina. The model is based on a residual stress-intensity factor for median cracks at

Developing an Assessment Methodology for Community Resilience

August 21, 2017
Author(s)
Maria Dillard
Communities can be characterized as complex systems, with resilience as an emergent property. Complex systems are systems composed of interconnected parts that exhibit emergent properties that arise from the collective and cannot be derived from the

Strain Measurement of 3D Structured Nanodevices by EBSD

August 20, 2017
Author(s)
William A. Osborn, Lawrence H. Friedman, Mark D. Vaudin
We present a new methodology to accurately measure strain magnitudes from 3D nanodevices using Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD). Because the dimensions of features on these devices are smaller than the interaction volume for backscattered electrons
