Universal negative energetic elasticity in polymer chains: Crossovers among random, self-avoiding, and neighbor-avoiding walks Open
Negative energetic elasticity in gels challenges the conventional understanding of gel elasticity; despite extensive research, a concise explanation remains elusive. In this study, we use the weakly self-avoiding walk (the Domb-Joyce model…

Comparison of RNN-LSTM and Kalman Filter Based Time Series Human Motion Prediction Open
Machine-human and machine-machine interaction is inevitable and needs to be considered apart from human-machine interaction. For the safety of machine interaction, the system is required to prevent any unexpected accident. This paper propo…

The interplay of intrinsic disorder and macromolecular crowding on <i>α</i>-synuclein fibril formation Open
α-synuclein (α-syn) is an intrinsically disordered protein which is considered to be one of the causes of Parkinson’s disease. This protein forms amyloid fibrils when in a highly concentrated solution. The fibril formation of α-syn is indu…
