Proceedings ArticleDOI

Numerical investigation on the efficiency of a plasma actuator for turbine applications

TL;DR: In this paper, a numerical plasma model via steady-state RANS turbulence modeling simulations was developed for axial turbine engines, and reasonable agreement has been observed in the calibration of the numerical model to experimental data.
Book ChapterDOI

Energy Harvesting from Flows Using Piezoelectric Patches

TL;DR: The highly nonlinear phenomenon of fluid-structure interaction is discussed in this paper, including examples drawn from nature and early work on aircraft flutter, and the practical implications of such systems in the future are discussed.

Enhancing acute kidney injury regeneration by promoting cellular dedifferentiation in zebrafish

TL;DR: Investigating the regenerative mechanisms of PTBA in zebrafish models of larval renal injury and adult cardiac injury provides key mechanistic insights into how PTBA enhances tissue repair in models of acute injury and lays the groundwork for translating this novel HDI into the clinic.
Journal ArticleDOI

UV-DDB stimulates the activity of SMUG1 during base excision repair of 5-hydroxymethyl-2'-deoxyuridine moieties

TL;DR: In this paper, a non-canonical role for UV-damaged DNA-binding protein (UV-DDB) in the processing of 8-oxoG, by stimulating OGG1, activity 3-fold, MUTYH activity 4-5-fold and APE1 activity 8-fold.
