Self-locking Fe-based shape memory couplers: Insights into SME and interface contact mechanics by Ali Jafarabadi, Maryam Mohri, Elyas Ghafoori, Eleni Chatzi, Christian Leinenbach, Christoph Czaderski

“…Notably, Fe-based shape memory couplers present an alternative to welded and machined mechanical joints, offering advantages such as self-locking assembly and reduction of stress concentrations. However, further characterization in terms of multiaxial shape memory effect (SME) and, geometrical as well as implementation parameters is crucial for the purpose of reliable strength evaluation. …”

Nanoparticles from grape seed extract inhibit inflammatory cytokines and ameliorate CCl4-induced hepatotoxicity by Neveen Adel Madbouly, Doaa Mohammad Ali, Alyaa Ahmed Farid

“…Conversely, GS extract NPs supplementation potentially ameliorate hepatic functions by normalization of serum ALT, AST and ALP, reduced MDA level, improved antioxidant CAT, regulated liver inflammatory cytokines via maximal reduction of hepatic IL-1β, IL-4, IL-6 and TNF-α. Conclusion GS extract NPs augmented the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of GS extract thereby protecting the liver against oxidative stress induced by CCl4 as hepatic xenobiotic. …”
