A 3D analysis of yeast ER structure reveals how ER domains are organized by membrane curvature

M West, N Zurek, A Hoenger, GK Voeltz - Journal of Cell Biology, 2011 - rupress.org
We analyzed the structure of yeast endoplasmic reticulum (ER) during six sequential stages
of budding by electron tomography to reveal a three-dimensional portrait of ER organization …

Discrete mechanics and variational integrators

JE Marsden, M West - Acta numerica, 2001 - cambridge.org
This paper gives a review of integration algorithms for finite dimensional mechanical systems
that are based on discrete variational principles. The variational technique gives a unified …

Simulating the evolution of soot mixing state with a particle‐resolved aerosol model

N Riemer, M West, RA Zaveri… - Journal of Geophysical …, 2009 - Wiley Online Library
The mixing state of soot particles in the atmosphere is of crucial importance for assessing
their climatic impact, since it governs their chemical reactivity, cloud condensation nuclei …

The PyCBC search for gravitational waves from compact binary coalescence

…, HP Pfeiffer, PR Saulson, M West… - … and Quantum Gravity, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
We describe the PyCBC search for gravitational waves from compact-object binary
coalescences in advanced gravitational-wave detector data. The search was used in the first …

Variational integrators and the Newmark algorithm for conservative and dissipative mechanical systems

…, JE Marsden, M Ortiz, M West - International Journal for …, 2000 - Wiley Online Library
The purpose of this work is twofold. First, we demonstrate analytically that the classical
Newmark family as well as related integration algorithms are variational in the sense of the …

Detecting extinction risk from climate change by IUCN Red List criteria

…, CC Simpson, R Tingley, CR Tracy, M West… - Conservation …, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
Anthropogenic climate change is a key threat to global biodiversity. To inform strategic actions
aimed at conserving biodiversity as climate changes, conservation planners need early …
