THEORETICAL AND NUMERICAL INVESTIGATION OF REDUCTION OF VISCOUS FRICTION IN CIRCULAR AND NON-CIRCULAR JOURNAL BEARINGS USING ACTIVE LUBRICATION

Theoretical and Numerical Investigation of Reduction of Viscous Friction in Circular and Non-Circular Journal Bearings Using Active Lubrication

Reducing friction losses is one of the most common ways to improve fluid film bearings, whose adjustable design provides additional opportunities to improve their dynamic and tribological properties.Previous studies have shown the possibility of reducing viscous friction in actively lubricated bearings by adjusting the rotor position.This work prov

The fifth adaptor protein complex.

Adaptor protein (AP) complexes sort cargo into vesicles for transport from one membrane compartment of the cell to another.Four distinct AP complexes have been identified, which are present in most eukaryotes.We report the existence of a fifth AP complex, AP-5.Tagged AP-5 localises to a late endosomal compartment in HeLa cells.AP-5 does not sling b
