DESIGN AND ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING OF ELASTIC METAMATERIALS WITH 3D LEVER-TYPE INERTIAL AMPLIFICATION MECHANISMS FOR MITIGATION OF LOW-FREQUENCY VIBRATION

Design and additive manufacturing of elastic metamaterials with 3D lever-type inertial amplification mechanisms for mitigation of low-frequency vibration

This paper proposes a three-dimensional lever-type inertial amplification metamaterial for the mitigation of low-frequency vibration.This metamaterial was developed as a small, stiff, and single-phase structure that can inhibit the transmission of vibration in a certain frequency range below 100 Hz.An analytical model was developed to derive analyt

Structural and functional divergence of growth hormone-releasing hormone receptors in early sarcopterygians: lungfish and Xenopus.

The evolutionary trajectories of growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) receptor remain enigmatic since the discovery of physiologically functional GHRH-GHRH receptor (GHRHR) in non-mammalian vertebrates in 2007.Interestingly, subsequent studies have Body Gift Set described the identification of a GHRHR(2) in chicken in addition to the GHRHR and t

Assessing the feasibility and effectiveness of household-pooled universal testing to control COVID-19 epidemics.

Outbreaks of SARS-CoV-2 are threatening the health care systems of several countries around the world.The initial control of SARS-CoV-2 epidemics relied on non-pharmaceutical interventions, such as social distancing, teleworking, mouth masks and contact tracing.However, as pre-symptomatic transmission remains an important driver of the epidemic, co

CVE2ATT&CK: BERT-Based Mapping of CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques

Since cyber-attacks are ever-increasing in number, intensity, and variety, a strong need for a global, standardized cyber-security knowledge database has emerged as a means to prevent and Handbags fight cybercrime.Attempts already exist in this regard.The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) list documents numerous reported software and hardw

Copper delivery to an endospore coat protein of Bacillus subtilis

A family of cytosolic copper (Cu) storage proteins (the Csps) bind large quantities of Cu(I) via their Cys-lined four-helix bundles, and the majority are cytosolic (Csp3s).The presence of Csp3s in many bacteria appears inconsistent with the current dogma that bacteria, unlike eukaryotes, have evolved not to maintain intracellular pools of Cu due to
