This paper reviews the best known techniques using circular dichroism spectroscopy such as conventional circular dichroism (i.e. electronic circular dichroism), magnetic circular dichroisms (magnetic vibrational circular dichroism, x-ray magnetic circular dichroism), fluorescence detected circular dichroism, near-infrared circular dichroism, vibrational circular dichroism, Fourier transform inf...

The introduction of Eurocode in Kazakhstan allows for the application modern technological innovations and elimination technical barriers realization international projects. It is significant to study standards design requirements provided Eurocode. This presents a comparative analysis Kazakhstani European approaches geotechnical foundations provides methods considered codes practice. Three dif...

Because of difficulty in inspection and retrofit of foundation in comparison with other elements, the common design philosophy is to avoid any nonlinear deformation in the foundation. This paper shows that by employing controlled foundation nonlinearity, in predetermined sections with arrangements for inspection and retrofit, it is possible to reduce seismic demand on superstructure. Localizing...

Dense granular clusters often behave like macroparticles. We address this interesting phenomenon in a model system of inelastically colliding hard disks inside a circular box, driven by a thermal wall at zero gravity. Molecular dynamics simulations show a close-packed cluster of an almost circular shape, weakly fluctuating in space and isolated from the driving wall by a low-density gas. The de...

The goal of this propos...

This report introduces new design and synthesis techniques that reduce the area and improve the performance of embedded built-in self-test (BIST) architectures such as circular BIST and parallel BIST. Our goal is to arrange the system bistables into scan paths so that some of the BIST and scan logic is shared with the system logic. Logic sharing is possible when scan dependence is introduced in...

Circular RNAs (circRNAs), a novel type of noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs), have been shown to be implicated in biological processes including cancer as gene expression regulators. However, the roles of circRNAs in cancer stem cells (CSCs) have been unexplored. In the present study, we screened the circRNA profile in breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs) using RNA-Sequencing. Here, 27 circRNAs were found to ...
