  2. 1. Ensemble methods for protein structure prediction

    Author : Marcin J. Skwark; Arne Elofsson; Michael Tress; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; protein structure prediction; model quality assessment; contact prediction; homology modeling; ab-initio prediction; consensus prediction; structural bioinformatics; bioinformatics; protein structure; biokemi; inriktning teoretisk kemi; Biochemistry with Emphasis on Theoretical Chemistry;

    Abstract : Proteins play an essential role in virtually all of life's processes. Their function is tightly coupled to the three-dimensional structure they adopt.Solving protein structures experimentally is a complicated, time- and resource-consuming endeavor. READ MORE

  4. 2. Transmembrane Proteins and Protein Structure Prediction : What we can learn from Computational Methods

    Author : John Lamb; Arne Elofsson; Paolo Marcatili; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; protein structure prediction; contact prediction; transmembrane protein; topology prediction; machine learning; Biochemistry towards Bioinformatics; biokemi med inriktning mot bioinformatik;

    Abstract : A protein’s 3D-structure is essential to understand how proteins function and interact and how biochemical processes proceed in organic life. Despite the advancement in experimental methods, it remains expensive and time-consuming to determine protein structure experimentally. READ MORE

  5. 3. Vibrations induced by surface roughness in nonlinear rolling contacts

    Author : Oskar Erik Lundberg; Ines Lopez Arteaga; Svante Finnveden; Will Graham; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Rolling contact; nonlinear contact; contact stiffness; contact filter; state-dependent method; relative displacement; wheel-rail contact; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Abstract : For efficient transportation in either trains, busses or passenger cars, rolling elements such as wheels, tyres, bearings and transmission elements are fundamental. The energy efficiency and the generation of noise and vibrations in rolling contacts depend on the surface roughness of contacting bodies. READ MORE

  6. 4. From Sequence to Structure : Using predicted residue contacts to facilitate template-free protein structure prediction

    Author : Mirco Michel; Arne Elofsson; Erik Lindahl; Johannes Söding; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; protein bioinformatics; protein structure prediction; contact prediction; machine learning; Biochemistry towards Bioinformatics; biokemi med inriktning mot bioinformatik;

    Abstract : Despite the fundamental role of experimental protein structure determination, computational methods are of essential importance to bridge the ever growing gap between available protein sequence and structure data. Common structure prediction methods rely on experimental data, which is not available for about half of the known protein families. READ MORE

  7. 5. Modelling of Dynamic Contact - Exemplified on the Tyre/Road Interaction

    Author : Krister Larsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; tyre dynamics; rolling noise; rolling contact; dynamic contact; tyre road noise; tyre road interaction;

    Abstract : Noise is a severe problem in modern society. Road traffic noise is a substantial contributor and the tyre/road interaction is the main noise source for normal driving conditions. Despite more than 30 years of research, there is a lack of quantitative tyre/road noise prediction models. READ MORE
