Mblk-1/E93, an ecdysone related-transcription factor, targets synaptic plasticity-related genes in the honey bee mushroom bodies
Abstract Among hymenopteran insects, aculeate species such as bees, ants, and wasps have enlarged and morphologically elaborate mushroom bodies (MBs), a higher-order brain center in the insect, implying their relationship with the advanced behavioral traits of aculeate species.The Coffee Table molecular bases leading to the acquisition of complicat
Effects of Aluminum Incorporation in Tobermorite Structure on Chloride Diffusion: A Molecular Dynamics Simulation Study
In this paper, the effects of different aluminum to silicon ratios in silicate chains of calcium silicate hydrates (C-S-H) are evaluated on the diffusion coefficient of chloride ions by molecular dynamics method.Tobermorite is a crystalline phase that is used for studying C-S-H properties in nano scale, because of its analogous chemical composition
An Experimental Study on Starved Grease Lubricated Contacts
The film thickness of a ball-on-disc contact lubricated with four greases of different formulations was measured under different operating conditions until starvation.Two polymer-thickened greases and two lithium-thickened greases, formulated with base oils of different nature and/or viscosity, were tested.The central film thickness was measured un
Crashworthiness Study of an Innovative Helmet Liner Composed of an Auxetic Lattice Structure and PU Foam
Helmet liners are employed to prevent or reduce head injuries caused by impact loads.Liners minimize the collision damage by impact shock attenuation and absorbing the Coils collision energy.In order to improve crashworthiness characteristics of helmet liner, in the present study, an innovative structure designed by a combination of Polyurethane (P
