- Insect molecular biology
- 1 August 2004
Two haemolymph proteins that are processed rapidly and specifically in response to exposure to bacteria have been identified from Anopheles gambiae. Both proteins, Anopheles gambiae… Expand
Preparation of Pectin–ZnO Nanocomposite
- L. Shi, S. Gunasekaran
- Materials Science, Medicine

- 21 October 2008
Pectin–ZnO nanocomposite was prepared in the aqueous solution condition at room temperature. The Fourier transform infrared, X-ray diffraction, and transmission electron microscope (TEM) measurements… Expand
Directed percolation phase transition to sustained turbulence in Couette flow
- G. Lemoult, L. Shi, K. Avila, Shreyas V. Jalikop, M. Avila, B. Hof
- Physics
- 1 March 2016
Decades-old speculation that the transition to turbulence belongs to the directed percolation universality class is confirmed with experimental and numerical data for flow through a… Expand
Interpretation of IR and Raman line shapes for H2O and D2O ice Ih.
- L. Shi, S. Gruenbaum, J. L. Skinner
- Chemistry, Medicine
- The journal of physical chemistry. B
- 31 October 2012
Noticeable differences between the vibrational (IR and Raman) spectra of neat H(2)O and D(2)O ice Ih are observed experimentally. Here, we employ our theoretical mixed quantum/classical approach to… Expand
Reparametrized E3B (Explicit Three-Body) Water Model Using the TIP4P/2005 Model as a Reference.
- C. Tainter, L. Shi, J. L. Skinner
- Chemistry, Medicine
- Journal of chemical theory and computation
- 6 April 2015
In this study, we present the third version of a water model that explicitly includes three-body interactions. The major difference between this version and the previous two is in the two-body water… Expand
Large Eddy Simulations of Model-Scale Turbulent Atmospheric Boundary Layer Flows
- L. Shi, Donghun Yeo
- Geology
- 1 September 2017
AbstractThis paper presents large eddy simulations (LES) of model-scaled neutrally stratified atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) flows for structural engineering applications and examines their stati...
The universality class of the transition to turbulence
- L. Shi, G. Lemoult, K. Avila, S. Jalikop, M. Avila, B. Hof
- Physics
- 13 April 2015
Turbulence is one of the most frequently encountered non-equilibrium phenomena in nature yet characterising the transition that gives rise to it has remained an elusive task. Although in recent… Expand
Hydrogen Bonding and OH-Stretch Spectroscopy in Water: Hexamer (Cage), Liquid Surface, Liquid, and Ice.
- C. Tainter, Y. Ni, L. Shi, J. L. Skinner
- Chemistry, Medicine
- The journal of physical chemistry letters
- 3 January 2013
We present a unified picture of how OH-stretch spectroscopy in water can be understood in terms of hydrogen bonding for the four systems listed in the title. To understand the strength, and hence… Expand
Robustness of Frequency, Transition Dipole, and Coupling Maps for Water Vibrational Spectroscopy.
- S. Gruenbaum, C. Tainter, L. Shi, Y. Ni, J. L. Skinner
- Chemistry, Medicine
- Journal of chemical theory and computation
- 21 June 2013
Infrared spectroscopy of the water OH stretch provides a sensitive probe of the local hydrogen-bonding structure and dynamics of water molecules. Previously, we have utilized a mixed… Expand
