Ban and coworkers at ETH are step-by-step widening the perspective of the actions on the ribosome (Bingel-Erienmeyer et al., 2008). The last one in the series is the localization of the binding site of peptide deformylase at the mouth of the polypeptide exit tunnel.
We consider the stationary Ginzburg–Landau equations in Rd, d=2,3. We exhibit a class of applied magnetic fields (including constant fields) such that the Ginzburg–Landau equations do not admit finite energy solutions.
A steady state agglomerate model for the MCFC cathode which takes into account the heterogeneous structure of this porous electrode is presented. The resulting model equations are solved by means of the finite element method. Calculations have been performed on two different test structures and include the influence of kinetics, porosity, outer surface area and distribution of electrolyte film. Co
Accounting based measures of exposure to macroeconomic shocks in exchange rates, interest rates and inflation do not capture the economic effects on the corporation of such shocks. We suggest measures that conceptually are coefficients in a multiple regression. The coefficients capture the sensitivity of a firm's real value or cash flows to unanticipated changes in each variable holding other vari
The Kramers-Kronig relations are probably the most well known dispersion relations [1]. These relations relate the real and imaginary parts of the constitutive relations. Summation rules are closely related to dispersion relations, and they ar important for consistency checks as well as deriving various physical bounds. In [2, 3, 4, 5], a summation rule that relates the absorption and scattering c
A method for the prevention of thrombotic, embolic and/or hemorrhagic disorders, such as cerebral infarction (stroke) or myocardial infarction, by administering levosimendan or its metabolite (II) or any of their pharmaceutically acceptable salts to a mammal in need of such prevention
Global public-private partnerships for sustainable development have been framed as new instruments that can increase the democratic credentials and effectiveness of global governance. This article revisits 10 years of scholarship and practice of the 348 Johannesburg partnerships, adopted at the 2002 World Summit on Sustainable Development and reaffirmed at the UN Rio+20 summit in 2012. The article
The perspective in the paper is the coast as a place for health, leisure, and recreation, and it takes its examples from southern Sweden and the city of Malmö. In Malmö the coast has been an essential and integrated part of the city’s business and image for centuries. It has been utilised and physically re-moulded for different purposes. By looking at the city coast from these perspectives, it is
This paper deals with the design of a nonlinear observer for the inverted pendulum. The observer uses the standard structure of the linear observer with the linear model replaced by a nonlinear model. Nominal observer gains are determined from a linearised model. This model is also used to find a compromise between robustness and performance. The stability of the observer is then discussed and con
