Mapping deformations and inferring movements of masonry arch bridges using point cloud data
Many historic masonry arch bridges experience damage due to support movements during their lifetime. This damage may influence the performance of the bridge and reduce its load carrying capacity. This paper proposes a new method...
Mono-ADP-ribosylation of histone 3 at arginine-117 promotes proliferation through its interaction with P300
Feng Ling, Yi Tang, Ming Li, Qing-Shu Li, Xian Li, Lian Yang, Wei Zhao, Cong-Cong Jin, Zhen Zeng, Chang Liu, Cheng-Fang Wu, Wen-Wen Chen, Xiao Lin, Ya-Lan Wang, Michael Threadgill
Aug 18, 2017
Relatively little attention has been paid to ADP-ribosylated modifications of histones, especially to mono-ADP-ribosylation. As an increasing number of mono-ADP-ribosyltransferases have been identified in recent studies, the...
Discrepancy and Synergy between China and the International Criminal Court
Cong-rui QIAO
Mar 27, 2018
International legal scholarship pays much attention to normative interpretations of China’s stance toward international criminal justice, which contributes little to the potential synergy between the two. This article develops...

On the relaxation approach for wave absorption in numerical wave tanks
In CFD modelling, relaxation methods are widely used in numerical wave tanks (NWTs) for wave absorption; however, this method can be very expensive as part of the NWT must be dedicated to a relaxation zone. In this short...
A 3D parallel Particle-In-Cell solver for wave interaction with vertical cylinders
In this paper, the Particle-In-Cell (PIC) based PICIN solver is extended to three spatial dimensions and parallelised using the Message Passing Interface (MPI) approach. The PICIN solver employs both Eulerian grid and Lagrangian...
The influence of swash-based reflection on surf zone hydrodynamics
A detailed understanding of the behaviour of waves in the nearshore is essential for coastal engineers as these waves cause beach erosion, coastal flooding and damage to coastal structures. Significantly, the influence of...
