Mixed methods for viscoelastodynamics and topology optimization by Giacomo Maurelli, Nadia Maini, Paolo Venini

“…An additive decomposition of the stress state into a viscoelastic part and a purely elastic one is introduced along with an Hellinger-Reissner variational principle wherein the stress represents the main variable of the formulation whereas the kinematic descriptor (that in the case at hand is the velocity field) acts as Lagrange multiplier. The resulting problem is a Differential Algebraic Equation (DAE) because of the need to introduce static Lagrange multipliers to comply with the Cauchy boundary condition on the stress. …”

L’idée nationale en montagne et dans l’alpinisme : le cas du club alpin austro-allemand (DÖAV) by Michel Mestre

“…The type of club eventually chosen, i.e. an Austrian-German Club, (in other words « Large Germany »), was not asserted by its founders as a political keystone, but much more as a fundamental act symbolizing a cultural specificity.

La Tentation de Saint-Antoine au Chat Noir : un exemple de collaboration multidisciplinaire by Michela Niccolai

Idea: From Realism to Idealism by Piotr Jaroszyński

“…Passing over early-modern and modern “isms” and various meanings of the term “idea,” deep in the past we discover the Proto-Indo-European “id” as the root involving the act of seeing and the object that is seen. Ancient Greek ideín, idéa, eído and eidos, all stemming from that primitive source, were part and parcel of Greek colloquial and literary language. …”

Broad Spectrum Anti-Quorum Sensing Activity of Tannin-Rich Crude Extracts of Indian Medicinal Plants by Varsha Shukla, Zarine Bhathena

“…A screening of tannin-rich medicinal plants was attempted to identify extracts that could interrupt the QS mechanisms in both Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria over a wide range of concentrations and therefore potentially be potent agents that could act as broad spectrum QS inhibitors. Six out of the twelve Indian medicinal plant extracts that were analyzed exhibited anti-QS activity in Chromobacterium violaceum 12472 and in S. aureus strain with agr:blaZ fusion over a broad range of subinhibitory concentrations, indicating that the extracts contain high concentration of molecules that can interfere with the QS mechanisms mediated by AHL as well as AIP.…”
