Sediment size effects on self-organisation behaviour of rip channels
Rip channels are frequently observed morphological pattern on the sandy beach, which are critical to the erosion of beaches as well as the safety of beach visitors. Field observations indicate the wave conditions and sediment characteristics exert the controlling effects on the states of beaches …

Groin-Associated Rip Currents Measured Using a New Digital Current Meter
<p>Rip currents have often been noted in physical model studies of groins and their effectiveness. Nevertheless, detailed field investigations of rip currents along a groin wall have not been heretofore conducted. A new digital current meter system was designed and built to study the …

Implementation of a Mathematical Approach to Rip Saw Arbor Design and Scheduling
… step in the flooring manufacturing process: the rip saw. This step is one of the largest sources of waste in the process. Furthermore, it is highly automated and software driven. Recent technological implementations at the rip saw and the wealth of data recorded during the process, make it an …

Role of NOD2/RIP2 signaling in acute bacterial pneumonia and sepsis
… immune system. Receptor interacting protein 2 (RIP-2) is an adaptor for the nod-like receptors (NLR) NOD1 and NOD2. Nucleotide oligomerisation domain 2 (NOD2) is an intracellular PRR that is shown to be important for host defense against intracellular bacterial pathogens. However, the role of …

A Comparison of Response-Contingent and Response-Independent Autoshaping Trials In Rats
… effective than responseindependent pairings (RIP) in producing vocalizations in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). RIP procedures entail a time-based intertrial interval (ITI) followed by the beginning of a trial, whereas RCP procedures include a response initiation period between …

Spatially-resolved transcriptomic mapping in live cells using peroxidase-mediated proximity biotinylation
… high-throughput methods for mapping the transcriptomes of subcellular compartments. Here, we developed two methods, termed APEX-RIP and APEX-Seq. APEX-RIP combines peroxidase-catalyzed, spatially restricted in situ protein biotinylation with RNA-protein chemical crosslinking, while APEX-Seq …

Ceramide-Induced Alternative Translocation of TM4SF20
… the Regulated Intramembrane Proteolysis (RIP) of the transcriptional factor CREB3L1 (cAMP response element binding protein 3-like 1), a transcription factor synthesized as a membrane-bound precursor. CREB3L1 RIP is induced by several stimuli: ER stress, viral infections, the …

Interrogating regulated intramembrane proteolysis of IGF-1R, and its role in cell migration
… regulated intramembrane proteolysis (RIP). This proteolytic pathway begins with ectodomain shedding, mediated by sheddases, which produces a soluble fragment in the extracellular space. Following ectodomain shedding, a membrane anchored C-terminal fragment (CTF) is produced which is …

Evaluation of a direct processing system for converting no. 3 grade red oak logs into rough dimension parts
… and five-part-sawing) and two cutting sequences (rip-first and crosscut-first) were tested for their effects on dimension yields, cutting lengths, and dollar value recovery. It was found that live-sawing resulted in significantly higher dimension yield than five-part-sawing. If followed by …

Cell Targeted Ribosome Inactivating Proteins Derived from Protein Combinatorial Libraries
… of the bacterial ribosome-inactivating protein (RIP) known as Shiga-like toxin 1 (SLT-1). More precisely, a seven amino acid peptide epitope (PDTRPAP) was inserted between residues 245-246 of its A subunit (SLT-1APDTRPAP) and shown to preserve catalytic function while exposing the epitope. SLT-1 …

Evaluation of color-based machine vision for lumber processing in furniture rough mills
… a yield study using 134 red oak boards. ROMI-RIP, a rip-first simulation program by Thomas (1995), was used to simulate yields for both the manually digitized lumber data and the machine vision scanned lumber data. The color-based machine vision system was evaluated by comparing the optimum …

Quantum Effects of Scalar Fields in Black Hole and Cosmological Spacetimes
… of a cosmological spacetime containing a big rip singularity. The spacetime investigated is that of a spatially flat FRW metric in which the scale factor increases as a power-law with a divergence at some future time $t=t_{\text{rip}}$. Results of analytical and numerical computations of the …

Invasive species: fundamental and applied science
… one such method: the Relative Impact Potential (RIP) metric. Based on the effective Comparative Functional Response method, which highlights damaging IAS by comparing their greater per capita maximum feeding rates relative to trophically analogous natives, it enhances prediction by accounting for …

Regulated intramembrane proteolysis in the control of the Bacillus subtilis anti-sigma factor RsiW.
… of regulated intramembrane proteolysis (RIP). This process involves two site-specific proteolytic cleavage events in the extracytoplasmic part (site-1) and in the transmembrane domain (site-2) of RsiW. In consequence, SigW is released to interact with the RNApolymerase, and the …

The potential for short length lumber in the furniture and cabinet industries
… increasing lumber length. In the significant rip-first relationships total yield decreased as lumber length increased. The variable which showed the strongest and most consistently significant relationship to lumber length was the average volume of parts produced per furniture rough mill …

Lakes and Groundwater of the Rieti Basin, Central Italy: Hydrochemistry, Paleolimnology, and Seismologic Influences
… changes in sediment cores. The lakes, Lungo and Ripasottile (LUN and RIP) have been described as surface outcroppings of the groundwater table, yet the surface-groundwater interactions have not previously been investigated in detail. High discharge springs representing local and regional aquifers …

Investigating new roles of the ubiquitin proteasome system in cell death and innate immune signalling
… by the receptor-interacting protein kinases (RIP). RIP kinases are known to interact with E3 ubiquitin ligases Pellino proteins. Pellino 1 has recently been described to target RIP kinases and regulate necroptosis. Firstly, the roles of the E3 ubiquitin ligases Pellino 2 and Pellino 3 were …
