Optimization and predictive modeling of reinforced concrete circular columns
(MDPI-Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2022)Metaheuristic optimization techniques are widely applied in the optimal design of structural members. This paper presents the application of the harmony search algorithm to the optimal dimensioning of reinforced concrete ... -
Sensitivity of muscle force response of a two-state cross-bridge model to variations in model parameters
(Sage Publications, 2022)Muscle models based on the cross-bridge theory (Huxley-type models) are frequently used to calculate muscle forces for different contractile conditions. Dynamic and nonlinear characteristics of muscle forces produced during ... -
Optimal dimensioning of retaining walls using explainable ensemble learning algorithms
(MDPI-Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2022)This paper develops predictive models for optimal dimensions that minimize the construction cost associated with reinforced concrete retaining walls. Random Forest, Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), Categorical Gradient ... -
Molecularly imprinted polymer based sensors for SARS-CoV-2: where are we now?
(MDPI-Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2022)Since the first reported case of COVID-19 in 2019 in China and the official declaration from the World Health Organization in March 2021 as a pandemic, fast and accurate diagnosis of severe acute respiratory syndrome ... -
Structures of the Wild-Type and S59L Mutant CHCHD10 ProteinsImportant in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis-FrontotemporalDementia
(American Chemical Society, 2022)The S59L genetic mutation of the mitochondrial coiled-coil-helix-coiled-coil-helixdomain-containing protein 10 (CHCHD10) is involved in the pathogenesis of amyotrophic lateralsclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia ... -
Interpretable machine learning algorithms to predict the axial capacity of frp-reinforced concrete columns
(MDPI-Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2022)Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) rebars are increasingly being used as an alternative to steel rebars in reinforced concrete (RC) members due to their excellent corrosion resistance capability and enhanced mechanical properties. ... -
NFI transcriptionally represses CDON and is required for SH-SY5Y cell survival
(Elsevier, 2022)Nuclear Factor One (NFI) family of transcription factors regulate proliferation and multiple aspects of differentiation, playing analogous roles in embryonic development and various types of cancer. While all NFI family ... -
Ion-imprinted polymer-on-a-sensor for copper detection
(MDPI-Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2022)The accumulation of metal ions in the body is caused by human activities and industrial uses. Among these metal ions, copper is the third most abundant ion found in the human body and is indispensable for health because ... -
The effect of preceramic soldering on fracture resistance of 4-unit zirconia fixed dental prostheses
(Wiley, 2022)Purpose Preceramic soldering of zirconia may deliver better fitting restorations. However, there is not sufficient evidence regarding the influence of preceramic soldering of zirconia restorations on mechanical strength. ... -
Secondary structure dependence of amyloid-beta(1-40) on simulation techniques and force field parameters

Zinc metalloprotease ProA of Legionella pneumophila increases alveolar septal thickness in human lung tissue explants by collagen IV degradation
(Wiley, 2021)ProA is a secreted zinc metalloprotease of Legionella pneumophila causing lung damage in animal models of Legionnaires' disease. Here we demonstrate that ProA promotes infection of human lung tissue explants (HLTEs) and ... -
Microbial peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerases (ppIases): virulence factors and potential alternative drug targets
(Amer Soc Microbiology, 2014)Initially discovered in the context of immunomodulation, peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerases (PPIases) were soon identified as enzymes catalyzing the rate-limiting protein folding step at peptidyl bonds preceding proline ... -
Polyketide synthase (PKS) reduces fusion of Legionella pneumophila-containing vacuoles with lysosomes and contributes to bacterial competitiveness during infection
