Material and geometric nonlinear analysis of reinforced concrete frame structures considering the influence of shear strength complementary mechanisms

open access: yesLatin American Journal of Solids and Structures
A mechanical model for the analysis of reinforced concrete frame structures based on the Finite Element Method (FEM) is proposed in this paper. The nonlinear behavior of the steel and concrete is modeled by plasticity and damage models, respectively.

A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of the Recurrence of Autoimmune Encephalitis

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Autoimmune encephalitis (AE) is a disease with a potential for recurrence, and patients receive immunotherapy to prevent it. However, there is no consensus on the duration of immunotherapy. This study aimed to determine the recurrence rate and identify the risk factors for AE to provide guidance on the duration of immunotherapy ...
