Probing the conformational changes of the yeast mitochondrial ADP/ATP carrier
… the substrate binding site is regulated by salt bridge networks on either side of the central cavity, called the matrix and cytoplasmic salt bridge network. It has been proposed that during transport the salt bridge networks disrupt and form in an alternating way, opening and closing the binding …

Multi-Failure Mode Risk Assessment of the Houston/Galveston Bridge System to Hurricane Threats
… area hurricane risk assessment of bridges for multiple failure modes: bridge deck uplift and bridge scour. Due to recent hurricane damage of bridges, emergency managers need to understand the potential state of the bridge network immediately following a storm for effective …

Wireless sensor data transfer using bluetooth technology
… designed specifically for use in Personal Area Networks (PANs) where up to seven Bluetooth enabled computing devices such as Personal Computers and Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs) can form either a Group ad-hoc Network (GN or Bluetooth Piconet) or a network where one of them acts as a proxy, …

Force-dependent changes in alpha-catenin conformation
… Previous studies found that a cooperative network of salt bridges stabilizes the autoinhibited conformation of the M domain. Studies described in this dissertation established that disruption of salt bridges within the M domain triggers the activation (unfurling) of α-catenin to bind …

Refining computer-aided drug design routes for probing difficult protein targets and interfaces
… as highlighting the role of Arg119 in a salt-bridge network of interactions essential in substrate translocation. Collectively, this work illustrates the advantages of computational workflows in the drug discovery process and provides a framework that can be applied for additional GCPRs, …

Development and application of new system reliability analysis methods for complex infrastructure systems
The failure event of a structure or lifeline network is often described by a complex logical function of multiple component failure events. Despite significant advances in theories on reliability analysis of individual components and their adoption in practice, the critical knowledge and …

Development of An Effective Marketing Communications Network for the Successful Transfer of Technology An Empirical Study Based on the Diffusion of Portable Timber Bridge Technology
… considerable effort in transferring timber bridge technology to private industry. However, much of this effort has focused upon permanent bridge structures for highway or pedestrian use. Little research has been conducted on how to facilitate technology transfer via an information flow …
