Buckling Analysis of Cylindrical Grooved Shell under Axial Load Discs

In this paper, buckling of cylindrical grooved shells under axial load has been examined by theoretical and experimental methods. The shell is made of USA/API – X42 5L steel standards. This material is one of the most common materials used in gas, oil and petrochemical industries. The effect of spiral grooves on cylindrical shell was analyzed, and the results obtained from the Abaqus software w...

Polymer Brushes under High Load

Polymer coatings are frequently used to provide repulsive forces between surfaces in solution. After 25 years of design and study, a quantitative model to explain and predict repulsion under strong compression is still lacking. Here, we combine experiments, simulations, and theory to study polymer coatings under high loads and demonstrate a validated model for the repulsive forces, proposing th...

Actin network growth under load.

Many processes in eukaryotic cells, including the crawling motion of the whole cell, rely on the growth of branched actin networks from surfaces. In addition to their well-known role in generating propulsive forces, actin networks can also sustain substantial pulling loads thanks to their persistent attachment to the surface from which they grow. The simultaneous network elongation and surface ...

Kinesin's backsteps under mechanical load.

Kinesins move processively toward the plus end of microtubules by hydrolyzing ATP for each step. From an enzymatic perspective, the mechanism of mechanical motion coupled to the nucleotide chemistry is often well explained using a single-loop cyclic reaction. However, several difficulties arise in interpreting kinesin's backstepping within this framework, especially when external forces oppose ...
