Surface features on the length scale of organelles allow their manipulation. Here, we present observations of an unexpected deformation of nuclei within cells growing on surfaces with micrometer-sized pillars. Our results demonstrate that a microstructured surface can induce strong shape deformations in cells, without harmful consequences, and strongly suggest that these are limited to cancerous cells.

E3D-D2D: EMBEDDING IN 3D, DETECTION IN 2D THROUGH PROJECTIVE INVARIANTS Yasaroglu, Yagiz; Alatan, Abdullah Aydın (2014-10-30) A novel watermarking method is presented in which the data embedded into a 3D model is extracted from an arbitrary 2D view by using a perspective projective invariant. The data is embedded into 3D positions of selected interest points on a 3D mesh. Determining the interest point modification vectors for ensuring watermark detection constitutes an important part of the proposed method. Different watermark embedding schemes based on optimization of the watermark function are implemented and evaluated. Another...
EXTRACTING EMBEDDED DATA IN 3D MODELS FROM 2D VIEWS USING PERSPECTIVE INVARIANTS Yasaroglu, Yagiz; Alatan, Abdullah Aydın (2011-05-18) A 3D-2D watermarking method using perspective projective invariance is proposed. Data is embedded in relative positions of six points on a 3D mesh by translating one of them, and extracted from any 2D view generated as long as the points remain visible. To evaluate the performance of the perspective invariant, a watermarking system with a very simple interest point detection method is implemented. Simulations are made on six 3D meshes with different watermark strengths and view angles. Very promising result...
Topographically induced self-deformation of the nuclei of cells: dependence on cell type and proposed mechanisms Davidson, Patricia M.; Fromigue, Olivia; Marie, Pierre J.; Hasırcı, Vasıf Nejat; Reiter, Guenter; Anselme, Karine (2010-03-01) Osteosarcoma-derived cell lines (SaOs-2, MG63) have recently been shown to deform their nucleus considerably in response to surface topography. Such a deformation had not been described previously. Here we present results on additional cell lines, including cancerous (OHS4, U2OS), immortalized (F/STRO-1(+)A and FHSO6) and healthy cells (HOP). The cancerous cells were found to deform extensively, the immortalized cells showed small deformations, whereas the healthy cells showed deformation only at short incu...
Nanoclay assisted strengthening of the fiber/matrix interface in functionally filled polyamide 6 composites Isitman, Nihat Ali; AYKOL, Muratahan; Kaynak, Cevdet (Elsevier BV, 2010-08-01) This study describes the contribution of a nano-filler, i.e. an organically modified layered silicate, in respect of the fiber/matrix interfacial shear strength (IFSS) of a short glass fiber reinforced and functionally filled polyamide 6, given an exfoliated nanocomposite morphology. Apparent IFSS values are determined using a continuum micromechanical method. Polymer chains in the nanoconfined environment of an exfoliated clay nanocomposite are found to crystallize preferentially in the form of a specific ...
Delamination Analysis of Tapered Composite Laminates using Cohesive Elements Dashatan, Saeid; Parnas, Kemal Levend; Çöker, Demirkan; Poorzeinolabedin, Mohsen (null; 2018-12-01) In this study, the initiation and propagation of delamination in tapered composite laminates are investigated using a finite element modelling with cohesive zone. The structural model with several drop-offs is assumed to be under tension. For this purpose, UD plies of 0-degree orientations are used for each sub-laminate. For a single step drop off, the results show that the delamination failure starts at the interface between ply drop-off and resin pocket. The next delamination generally starts either from ...
