Published today in Scientific Reports 6, Article number: 29627 (2016). This work presents a theory that describes the stiffness of curved thin sheets with simple equations in terms of the longitudinal and transversal curvatures. The theory predicts experimental results with a macroscopic cantilever sheet as well as numerical simulations by the finite element method. The results shed…
European Research Council grants Dr. Calleja with 2,47 million euro to develop a high throughput spectrometric technique addressing single proteins from complex samples while in physiological conditions. The ERC Consolidator grant LIQUIDMASS proposes a new concept for protein spectrometry, by characterizing not only the mass, but also the hydrodynamic radius, geometry and stiffness of single…
