Compressibility characteristics and modification effect of coal reservoirs in Longtan Formation, Nanchuan area, southeast Chongqing by Jinxian LIU, Tao GUO, Yatong ZHOU, Dongyang LI, Xiaobo JIN

“…Mudstone roof plates with high clay mineral content are brittle, prone to fracturing, and susceptible to swelling upon water contact, which are the major causes for spalling risks and impact horizontal well drilling rate. (4) Irregular natural fractures can lead to fracture propagation and fracture height control failure, while regular fractures that align with the direction of maximum principal stress facilitate artificial fracture propagation and contribute to effective reservoir modification.…”

Tissue shear as a cue for aligning planar polarity in the developing Drosophila wing by Su Ee Tan, David Strutt

“…Abstract Planar polarity establishment in epithelia requires interpretation of directional tissue-level information at cellular and molecular levels. Mechanical forces exerted during tissue morphogenesis are emerging as crucial tissue-level directional cues, yet the mechanisms by which they regulate planar polarity are poorly understood. …”

Structural basis of SIRT7 nucleosome engagement and substrate specificity by Carlos Moreno-Yruela, Babatunde E. Ekundayo, Polina N. Foteva, Dongchun Ni, Esther Calvino-Sanles, Henning Stahlberg, Beat Fierz

“…The catalytic domain binds at the H3-tail exit site, engaging both DNA gyres of the nucleosome. Contacting H3K36 versus H3K18 requires a change in binding pose, and results in structural changes in both SIRT7 and the nucleosome. …”
