Advancements in high-performance computing and in nonlinear dynamic structural simulation software such as ABAQUS have made it possible to virtually test potential designs prior to building and testing expensive prototypes. These tools alone, however, still require an engineer to develop a design based on intuition and numerous time-consuming and error-prone iterations. The next level of advanc...

BACKGROUND The current study utilized a Bleomycin-induced model of skin fibrosis to investigate the neo-epitope CO3-610 (KNGETGPQGP), a fragment of collagen III released during matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP9) degradation of the protein, we have previously described as a novel biomarker for liver fibrosis. The aim was to investigate CO3-610 levels in another well characterised model of fibrosi...

the present study was aimed to construct a fusion plasmid harboring the extracellular domain of the influenza a m2-protein (m2e), which was fused to the n-terminus of the truncated hsp70 (hsp70359–610) molecule as a new approach for future vaccine research against influenza a. the amplified fragments, m2e and hsp70359-610 genes, were gel-purified. the products were then single digested with bam...

Abstract Experimental investigation of RCC beam provide an important understanding on its flexural properties. The stages involved from the design to casting, curing, testing and interpretation results is time consuming involves economy labour. To reduce above said challenges, numerical seems be alternate without involvement money Preliminary equation which are provided by basic experiments con...

Abstract: Hybrid III dummies are among the most frequently used dummies in both industry and academia for vehicle crash safety. Abaqus is one of most widely applied finite element codes in the world. To meet the needs of crash safety analysis and to exploit the potential of the Abaqus/Explicit code, a family of HIII dummies, including HII 50th male, 5th female and 95th male dummies, were develo...

A unified framework is presented that enables coupled multiscale analysis of composite structures and associated graphical pre and post processing within the Abaqus/CAE environment. The recently developed, free, Finite Element Analysis Micromechanics Analysis Code (FEAMAC) software couples NASA's Micromechanics Analysis Code with Generalized Method of Cells (MAC/GMC) with Abaqus/Standard and /E...
