Numerical investigation on primary and secondary cracks in thick concrete members
Abstract This study investigates the crack formation process in thick reinforced concrete members subjected to imposed deformations, focusing on the development of secondary cracks in addition to geometrically set primary cracks. A validated nonlinear fracture‐plastic finite element model is used to analyze the influence of reinforcement layout, member

Impact of half‐joint failures on RC girder bridges: A robustness quantification study
Abstract The robustness of bridge structures is critical to ensuring safety and service continuity, particularly in aging infrastructure exposed to degradation and unexpected loads. Reinforced concrete (RC) half‐joint bridges—widely built in Italy between the 1950s and 1970s—exhibit specific vulnerabilities due to inspection challenges, durability ...

Strip loading in steel fiber reinforced concrete: Experimental and theoretical investigation
Abstract Fiber reinforced concrete is becoming increasingly popular in engineering practice due to its high robustness, post‐cracking behavior, and crack control. For strip loading, as common, for example, in longitudinal joints of tunnel lining segments, the use of fiber reinforced concrete has the potential to reduce conventional reinforcement ...

Renal cell carcinoma with atypical omental metastasis: A case report and literature review
Abstract Background Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the most common type of kidney cancer in adults, with common metastatic sites including the lungs, bones, liver, and brain. Omental metastasis is exceedingly rare and usually occurs postoperatively. Fumarate hydratase‐deficient (FH‐deficient) RCC, a recently classified and highly aggressive subtype of ...

Large mammals are darted with dart guns to inject drugs or to collect biopsy tissue for capture, research, or veterinary purposes, especially for procedures involving wild and zoo animals. Darting is invasive and associated with risks of trauma, and severe and fatal dart injuries have been reported.

Ungulate substrate use in fauna passages
Fauna passages are increasingly constructed at major roads and railways to mitigate the negative effects of infrastructure and traffic on wildlife. The function of such passages depends on design, including the construction materials, soil, and vegetation.
