The methodology is defined by the fiber model based on continuous anchored bars and by its implementation into a fiber force-based finite element.
Overall, the results presented in this paper provide quantitative insight into the origin of continuous anchoring transitions triggered by vesicles at protein-decorated LC interfaces and, more broadly, guidance for the design of stimuli-responsive LC systems.
This paper reports on the dynamics of continuous anchoring transitions at interfaces formed between nematic liquid crystals (LCs, 4′-pentyl-4-cyanobiphenyl (5CB)) and immiscible aqueous phases that are induced by either non-specific or specific interactions between phospholipid vesicles and proteins adsorbed at the LC interfaces.
The Program Director will work with each fellow to create an Individual Development Plan to guide training activities and allow for continuous development anchored to the program's mission, goals, objectives, and needs, as well as the fellow's career goals.
Finally, specific binding interactions between the antibody-decorated LC interfaces and vesicles (through antibody-antigen recognition) greatly accelerated the continuous LC anchoring transitions, with dynamics that were measured to scale with the logarithm of the ligand composition of the vesicles (over four orders of magnitude).
Cable news delivered continuous reports, and networks anchored newscasts from Baghdad.
These two kinds of adherent and continuous coatings activated and anchored by the silver seeds, which were both resistant against sonication, were deposited onto PSA fibers with different electrical, magnetic, electromagnetic shielding, and corrosion resistance properties.
A new type of conical anchor with novel continuous-fiber-reinforced load transfer component (LTC) was proposed to overcome shortcomings of conventional anchors.
Inaugurations are long, the coverage is continuous, and the prattle that anchors and commentators have to deliver in a steady stream can at times get trite and tiresome.
