Simulating Local Buckling-Induced Softening in Steel Members Using an Equivalent Nonlocal Material Model in Displacement-Based Fiber Elements

Dimitrios Lignos

Fiber-based elements are commonly used to simulate steel beam-columns because of their ability to capture P-M interactions and spread of plasticity. However, when mechanisms such as local buckling result in effective softening at the fiber scale, conventio ...

Time-Continuous Phosphorus Flows in the Indian Agri-Food Sector: Long-Term Drivers and Management Options

Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer

Phosphorus (P) is a major agricultural nutrient and, in its mineable form, a potentially scarce resource. Countries with limited physical access to P should hence develop an effective national P governance. This requires analyses of trends and variations i ...

Physiological Adaptations to Sugar Intake: New Paradigms from Drosophila melanogaster

Bruno Lemaitre, Wen Bin Chng

Sugars are important energy sources, but high sugar intake poses a metabolic challenge and leads to diseases. Drosophila melanogaster is a generalist fruit breeder that encounters high levels of dietary sugars in its natural habitat. Consequently, Drosophi ...

Transforming Growth Factor beta/Activin signaling in neurons increases susceptibility to starvation

Bruno Lemaitre, Xiaoxue Li, Wen Bin Chng

Animals rely on complex signaling network to mobilize its energy stores during starvation. We have previously shown that the sugar-responsive TGF beta/Activin pathway, activated through the TGF beta ligand Dawdle, plays a central role in shaping the post-p ...

Bile acids deoxycholic acid and ursodeoxycholic acid differentially regulate human beta-defensin-1 and-2 secretion by colonic epithelial cells

Kristina Schoonjans, Alessia Perino

Bile acids and epithelial-derived human beta-defensins (H beta Ds) are known to be important factors in the regulation of colonic mucosal barrier function and inflammation. We hypothesized that bile acids regulate colonic H beta D expression and aimed to t ...

Three-dimensional microfabrication through a multimode optical fiber

Demetri Psaltis, Christophe Moser, Donald Benjaman Conkey, Nicolino Stasio, Edgar Emilio Morales Delgado

3D printing based on additive manufacturing is an advanced manufacturing technique that allows the fabrication of arbitrary macroscopic and microscopic objects. Many 3D printing systems require large optical elements or nozzles in proximity to the built st ...

Radiative characterization of random fibrous media with optically large long cylindrical fibers

Sophia Haussener

Radiative heat transfer is analyzed in participating media consisting of long cylindrical fibers with a diameter in the limit of geometrical optics. The absorption and scattering coefficients and the scattering phase function of the medium are determined b ...
