  2. Sliding filament theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sliding_filament_theory

    Cross-bridge theory states that actin and myosin form a protein complex (classically called actomyosin) by attachment of myosin head on the actin filament, thereby forming a sort of cross-bridge between the two filaments. The sliding filament theory is a widely accepted explanation of the mechanism that underlies muscle contraction.

  3. Anrep effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anrep_effect

    This process aligns actin and myosin filaments for efficient cross-bridge formation while also recruiting myosin heads from dormant states into contraction-ready configurations. [ 6 ] [ 10 ] Additionally, stretching the sarcomeres sensitizes the thin (actin) filaments to calcium, promoting stronger and more sustained contractions. [ 6 ]

  4. Diverging diamond interchange - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diverging_diamond_interchange

    A diverging diamond interchange (DDI), also called a double crossover diamond interchange (DCD), [1] [2] is a subset of diamond interchange in which the opposing directions of travel on the non-freeway road cross each other on either side of the interchange so that traffic crossing the freeway on the overpass or underpass is operating on the ...

    The western bridge carries High Speed 1 (HS1), the high-speed rail link that connects London with the Channel Tunnel. The rail viaduct is a 1.3 km (0.81 mi) long structure that spans the River Medway , Wouldham Road and Burham Roads in Borstal .

  6. Deoxyadenosine triphosphate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deoxyadenosine_triphosphate

    In cardiac myosin, dATP is an alternative to ATP as an energy substrate for facilitating cross-bridge formation. [6] [7] See also. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP)

  9. Plate girder bridge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plate_girder_bridge

    In a plate girder bridge, the plate girders are typically I-beams made up from separate structural steel plates (rather than rolled as a single cross-section), which are welded or, in older bridges, bolted or riveted together to form the vertical web and horizontal flanges of the beam. In some cases, the plate girders may be formed in a Z-shape ...
