L. L. Cheng, A. G. Zepeda, C. Wu, R. G. Gonzalez, A. Bielecki, D. Cory MGH/Harvard Med School, Boston, MA, United States, MIT, Cambridge, MA, United States Synopsis. Applying high resolution magic angle spinning (HRMAS) NMR spectroscopy to investigate cellular metabolism of diseases has encouraged exploration of slow spinning methodologies to better preserve tissue pathology structures against ...

High-resolution NMR of samples in the solid state is typically performed under mechanical sample spinning around an axis that makes an angle, called the magic angle, of 54.7 degrees with the static magnetic field. There are many cases in which geometrical and engineering constraints prevent spinning at this specific angle. Implementations of in-situ and ex-situ magic angle field spinning might ...

It is shown that high-resolution (1)H NMR spectra of intact excised tissues and organs can be obtained by rotating the sample slowly about an axis at the magic angle of 54 degrees 44' with the external magnetic field. In this way tissue and cellular damage invoked by standard magic angle spinning (MAS) experiments, where spinning speeds of several kHz are typically employed, are minimized. Spec...

The generalized Killing equations for the configuration space of spinning particles (spinning space) are analysed. Solutions of these equations are expressed in terms of Killing-Yano tensors. In general the constants of motion can be seen as extensions of those from the scalar case or new ones depending on the Grassmann-valued spin variables. Spinning particles, such as Dirac fermions, can be d...

Silk fibroin exists in a number of different states, such as silk I and silk II, with different properties largely defined by differences in secondary structure composition. Numerous attempts have been made to control the transitions from silk I to silk II in vitro to produce high-performance materials. Of all the factors influencing the structural compositions, pH and some metal ions play impo...

To enhance the production efficiency of ring spinning and reduce the tension in the spinning process, the system which installed the balloon control ring on the ring spinning machine to control the balloon configuration of the yarn in the spanning process and control the tension in the spinning process was designed in the article. The system is the automatic control system based on PLC (Program...

A process to produce fibers from Poly(m-phenyleneisophthalamide)(PMIA) solution in an ionic liquid via wet-spinning technology are described. The spinning process was investigated on a small laboratory scale. Ionic liquid spinning solutions were first prepared for PMIA fibers, followed by wet spinning. In the course of this research, the physical properties of the PMIA fibers were estimated. We...

Spinning-wing decoys are strong attractants to ducks and increase kill rates over traditional decoying methods. However, it is unknown whether all duck species are attracted similarly to spinning-wing decoys and whether the effectiveness of these decoys changes with latitude. We examined the effectiveness of spinning-wing decoys for 9 species of dabbling ducks during 545 experimental hunts in C...

abstract: in this paper, nonlocal euler–bernoulli beam theory is employed for transverse vibration analysis of an initially pre-stressed size-dependent rotating nanotube. the nonlocal eringen theory takes into account the effect of small size, which enables the present model to become effective in the analysis and design of nanosensors and nanoactuators. governing equations are derived through ...
