Effect of geometric characteristics of helical piles on the lateral displacement in sandy slopes by loading surcharge by Mir abas Bahri, Mahyar Arabani

“…Laboratory results also reveal that the vertical load increases by 34, 20, and 12 %, respectively by increasing the helix depth, decreasing the helix pitch, and installing the piles in a slanted manner. Furthermore, considering the results of verification through numerical analysis, the vertical load on the slope crest when reinforced with helical piles was up to 47 % higher than when reinforced with cylindrical piles with the same shaft diameter. …”

Genomic Analysis of miR-21-3p and Expression Pattern with Target Gene in Olive Flounder by Ara Jo, Hee-Eun Lee, Heui-Soo Kim

“…The PPIL2 gene showed high expression levels in testis tissue of the olive flounder, whereas miR-21-3p showed rather ubiquitous expression patterns except in testis tissue, indicating that miR-21-3p seems to control the PPIL2 gene expression in a complementary repression manner in various tissues of olive flounder. Taken together, this current study contributes to infer the target gene candidates for the miR-21-3p using bioinformatics tools. …”

Giant and flexible toroidal circular dichroism from planar chiral metasurface by Shijie Kang, Haitao Li, Jiayu Fan, Jiusi Yu, Boyang Qu, Peng Chen, Xiaoxiao Wu

“…With the introduction of a displacement, or bilayer offset, between the opposite layers, we experimentally achieve giant chiral responses with the intrinsic circular dichroism (CD) reaching 0.69 in measurements, and the CD can be quantitatively manipulated in a simple manner. The giant intrinsic chirality primarily originates from distinct excitations of in-plane toroidal dipole moments under circular polarized incidences, and the toroidal chiral response is quantitatively controlled by the bilayer offset. …”
