Numerical investigation of the edge profile in hot-rolling by Veale, John

“…The results of the analyses were used to investigate the mechanisms which lead to the concave edge profile. In the roll-gap the work-load arches through the ingot; and for roll passes with small reductions a stress pattern occurs which leads to the concave edge profile. …”

A single AKH neuropeptide activating three different fly AKH-receptors: an insecticide study via computational methods by Abdulganiyyu, Ibrahim A

“…The fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, the flesh fly, Sarcophaga crassipalpis, and the oriental fruit fly, Bactrocera dorsalis all have the same AKH that is present in the blowfly, Phormia terraenovae; this AKH has the code-name Phote-HrTH. Binding of the AKH to the extracellular binding site of a G protein-coupled receptor causes its activation. …”
