Paul, C.E. (author), Hanefeld, U. (author), Hollmann, F. (author), Qu, Ge (author), Yuan, Bo (author), Sun, Zhoutong (author)Contemporary Biocatalysis heavily relies on enzyme engineering as natural enzymes frequently lack the requisite attributes for effective organic synthesis. The inherent limitations in stability, catalytic activity, and selectivity of wild-type enzymes often hinder their suitability for chemical synthesis. Over the past 25 years, there has...journal article 2024

Li, Tianzhi (author), Chen, Jian (author), Yuan, Shenfang (author), Zarouchas, D. (author), Sbarufatti, Claudio (author), Cadini, Francesco (author)Fatigue damage prognosis always requires a degradation model describing the damage evolution with time; thus, the prognostic performance highly depends on the selection of such a model. The best model should probably be case specific, calling for the fusion of multiple degradation models for a robust prognosis. In this context, this paper...journal article 2024

(author)SARS-CoV-2 transmission in indoor spaces, where most infection events occur, depends on the types and duration of human interactions, among others. Understanding how these human behaviours interface with virus characteristics to drive pathogen transmission and dictate the outcomes of non-pharmaceutical interventions is important for the...journal article 2024

Yuan, Tianyun (author), Song, Yu (author), Goossens, R.H.M. (author), Kraan, G.A. (author)Studies on finger kinematics, especially the range of motion (RoM) measurements, are essential to understand the use of finger joints and the pathology of related disease. Limited literatures compared the active RoM (A-RoM) of finger joints with either their functional RoM (F-RoM) or passive RoM (p-RoM) using different measuring protocols and...book chapter 2024

Yuan, T. (author)The thumb finger is indispensable for an independent daily life. Implant replacement, which aims to restore joint mobility and functionality, is one of the surgical treatments for patients with osteoarthritis at the thumb-base. However, current designs and the biomechanical understanding of the thumb-base joint are inadequate. Small bone size,...doctoral thesis 2023
