Enhancing Akt Imaging through Targeted Reporter Expression by Limin Zhang, Mahaveer S. Bhojani, Brian D. Ross, Alnawaz Rehemtulla

“…Using changes in Akt activation status with small molecule inhibitors of Akt, we demonstrated that the membrane-targeted Akt reporter was more sensitive and quantitative. In addition, inhibition of upstream signaling kinases such as epidermal growth factor receptor and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase activity resulted in changes in Akt activity that were quantitatively monitored by bioluminescence imaging. …”

Correlation Between Involute Profile Waviness and Gear Transmission Performance by Zhou Yuansheng, Yue Huijun, Wu Xiangkai, Shi Zhaoyao

“…The results show that the fluctuation amplitude of transmission error is sensitive to the amplitude change of tooth profile waviness; the periodicity of tooth profile waviness is related to the order component of transmission error; with the increase of the number of waviness fluctuation periods, the order amplitude of the corresponding multiple of the number of teeth increases significantly; the magnitude of tooth surface contact stress is mainly affected by the amplitude of profile waviness. …”
