TL;DR: This work uses single-molecule force-clamp spectroscopy with an atomic force microscope along with molecular dynamics and steered molecular dynamics simulations to resolve the molecular mechanisms underlying catch bond formation and the role of Ca(2+) ions in this process.
Abstract: Cadherins are calcium-dependent adhesion molecules that can form catch bonds, characterized by longer lifetimes at higher force. Here, Manibog et al. determine the mechanism of catch bond formation, whereby tension induces hydrogen bond formation between opposing extracellular domains in a calcium-dependent manner.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that a recently developed approach for optimizing atomic structures is very effective for attacking the Thomson problem of finding the lowest-energy configuration of point charges on a unit sphere.
Abstract: We demonstrate that a recently developed approach for optimizing atomic structures is very effective for attacking the Thomson problem of finding the lowest-energy configuration of $N$ point charges on a unit sphere. Our approach uses a genetic algorithm, combined with a "cut and paste" scheme of mating, that efficiently explores the different low-energy structures. Not only have we reproduced the known results for $10l~Nl~132$, this approach has allowed us to extend the calculation for all $Nl~200$. This has allowed us to identify series of "magic" numbers, where the lowest-energy structures are particularly stable. Most of these structures are icosahedral, but we also find low-energy structures that deviate from icosahedral symmetry.

TL;DR: The results of this study indicate that the extent to which cations in Class F PC fly ash can be leached by naturally occurring fluids is very limited.
Abstract: Coal utilization byproducts (CUB), such as fly ash, contain cations that may be released during exposure to fluids such as acid rain or acid mine drainage. Researchers at the Department of Energy's National Energy Technology Laboratory (DOE/NETL) have conducted a long-term column leaching study of 32 Class F fly ash samples from pulverized coal (PC) combustion, and quantified the release of 19 cations in four leachants with a pH between 1.2 and 12. The relative solubility (M(L/T)) of each cation was defined as the total mass leached (M(L)) relative to the concentration (M(T)) of that element in the fly ash sample. A frequency distribution of relative solubility values was computed with ranges defined as insoluble, slightly soluble, moderately soluble, and very soluble. On the basis of this sample set, Ba, Cd, Fe, Pb, Sb, and Se in PC fly ash are insoluble. The elements Al, Be, Ca, Co, Cr, Cu, K, Mg, Mn, Na, Ni, and Zn are slightly to moderately acid soluble. Only Ca and Na are water soluble; As and Ca are soluble in the basic solution, The results of this study indicate that the extent to which cations in Class F PC fly ash can be leached by naturally occurring fluids is very limited.

TL;DR: In this paper, the root moment sensor fault detection and isolation issue for three-bladed wind turbines with horizontal axis is investigated based on the residuals generated by dual Kalman filters.
Abstract: This paper aims at the blade root moment sensor fault detection and isolation issue for three-bladed wind turbines with horizontal axis. The underlying problem is crucial to the successful application of the individual pitch control system, which plays a key role for reducing the blade loads of large offshore wind turbines. In this paper, a wind turbine model is built based on the closed loop identification technique, where the wind dynamics is included. The fault detection issue is investigated based on the residuals generated by dual Kalman filters. Both additive faults and multiplicative faults are considered in this paper. For the additive fault case, the mean value change detection of the residuals and the generalized likelihood ratio test are utilized respectively. For multiplicative faults, they are handled via the variance change detection of the residuals. The fault isolation issue is proceeded with the help of dual sensor redundancy. Simulation results show that the proposed approach can be successfully applied to the underlying issue. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
