Shear Capacity of Open Sandwich Steel Plate-Concrete Composite Slab: Experimental and Analytical Studies by Lili Wu, Lipei An, Jiawei Li

“…Because of the combination effect of steel plate, the actual shear force sustained by the concrete in the composite slab was 1.27 to 2.22 times greater than that of the calculated value through the Chinese Design Code for Concrete Structures (GB 50010-2010). Furthermore, the shear capacity of the specimen increases by 37% as the shear stud spacing decreases from 250 mm to 150 mm. …”

Site-selective photo-crosslinking for the characterisation of transient ubiquitin-like protein-protein interactions. by Zac Sandy, Zijuan Wang, Deepak Behera, Benjamin M Foster, Finlay A Martin, Kira Brüninghoff, Kathleen M Cain, Wolfgang Dörner, Maria Jose Cabello-Lobato, Josep V Forment, Matthew J Cliff, Igor Larrosa, Perdita Barran, Duncan L Smith, Henning D Mootz, Christine K Schmidt

“…Despite this, they have been historically hard to identify using conventional methods due to their often weak and transient nature. Using genetic code expansion and incorporation of commercially available unnatural amino acids, we have developed a highly accessible method whereby interactions between biotinylated ubiquitin-like protein (UBL) probes and their binding partners can be stabilised using ultraviolet (UV) light-induced crosslinks. …”
