Twisting graphene nanoribbons into carbon nanotubes
Although carbon nanotubes consist of honeycomb carbon, they have never been fabricated from graphene directly. Here, it is shown by quantum molecular-dynamics simulations and classical continuum-elasticity modeling, that graphene nanoribbons can, indeed, be transformed into carbon nanotubes by means of twisting. The chiralities of the tubes thus fabricated can be not only predicted but also ext...
متن کاملThe biomechanics of twisting somersaults. Part I: Rigid body motions.
This series of four papers comprises a theoretical investigation into twisting somersaults. Both simple and complex mathematical models are used to provide an understanding of the mechanics of the production and removal of twist in somersaults. Various twisting techniques are evaluated and a method is developed for the partitioning of an actual performance into contributions from these twisting...
متن کاملBody Shape Preferences: Associations with Rater Body Shape and Sociosexuality
There is accumulating evidence of condition-dependent mate choice in many species, that is, individual preferences varying in strength according to the condition of the chooser. In humans, for example, people with more attractive faces/bodies, and who are higher in sociosexuality, exhibit stronger preferences for attractive traits in opposite-sex faces/bodies. However, previous studies have ten...
متن کاملPulling the spindle into shape
Tilt back to turn left perating an eggbeater vertically creates a vortex, but a slight tilt makes fluid move across a bowl. now claim that a similar backward tilting of mouse cilia may create a flow that defines the left side of the embryo. Flow had already been established as a determinant of left–right asymmetry, at least in mice. Leftwards flow is created by a group of ف 30 cilia in the mo...
متن کاملGetting the embryo into shape
Membrane backtracking T he inner membrane of a chloroplast bristles with enzymes and other proteins that are synthesized in the cytoplasm, but how they get into position is uncertain. On page 249, Li and Schnell report that at least some proteins pass through the inner membrane and reenter it from the back side, rather than stopping on the way through. Chloroplasts are swaddled by inner and out...
