Sheet metal bending is one of the important metals forming processes at ambient temperature. The usage high-strength steel stronger materials for construction components in automotive industries. However, complex shapes, cold not always sufficient, and heating workpiece plays a major role manufacturing these shapes. Bendability may increase with increasing temperature currently, hot advanced hi...

background: there are multiple methods for acceleration of bone healing. bone marrow has been shown to contain osteoprogenitor cells.   objective: to determine the effect of percutaneous bone marrow injection on bone healing.   methods: 15 mature, 2-kg-weighing white new zealand rabbits from both sexes were randomized into 3 groups: group i: only osteotomy of right radius was performed and a 5 ...

The distribution of curvature and of bending speed along the cell's growing region are studied during steady state phototropic bending. At the start, elemental bending speed parallels the known axial distribution of growth rate. Hence regional phototropic sensitivity is initially determined by the local growth rate, and unilateral visible light acts proportionally at all levels of the growth zo...

The hoes are widely used in the farms and home gardens in the United States. Many existing hoes are not ergonomically designed because they require a lot of back bending and wrist bending during use. Back bending often causes lower back injuries, and wrist bending often causes carpal tunnel syndrome. It can be very expensive to cure these injuries. The objective of this project is to reduce bac...

DNA-bending flexibility is central for its many biological functions. A new bending restraining method for use in molecular mechanics calculations and molecular dynamics simulations was developed. It is based on an average screw rotation axis definition for DNA segments and allows inducing continuous and smooth bending deformations of a DNA oligonucleotide. In addition to controlling the magnit...

The bending of a flagellum, such as the flagellum which forms the tail of a seaurchin spermatozoon, is the result of active mechanochemical processes occurring within the flagellum itself, which cause it to bend actively throughout its length (Gray, 1955; Machin, 1958). To understand how flagella operate, we must understand not only the mechanisms which generate bending, but also the control me...

The cilia and flagella of eukaryotic cells function by active bending that produces cell movements and fluid flows in their environment. They contain a common cytoskeleton, known as the axoneme, that is the locus of all the enzymes and mechanical components that are required for production of useful bending. The bending of many flagella, and some cilia, is planar, or at least nearly planar. In ...

DNA bending plays an important role in many biological processes, but its molecular and energetic details as a function of base sequence remain to be fully understood. Using a recently developed restraint, we have studied the controlled bending of four different B-DNA oligomers using molecular dynamics simulations. Umbrella sampling with the AMBER program and the recent parmbsc0 force field yie...
