Advanced Multi-Body Modelling of DCCSS Isolators: Geometrical Compatibility and Kinematics
Buildings, 2021 The effectiveness of Double Concave Curved Surface Sliders (DCCSS), which initially spread under the name of Double Friction Pendulum (DFP) isolators, was already widely proven by numerous experimental campaigns carried out worldwide.

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis commonly experience reduced physical function, fatigue, poor sleep quality, and impaired health‐related quality of life. Intradialytic exercise has been proposed as a non‐pharmacological strategy to improve these outcomes.

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Hyperlipidemia is a major risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Although statins are the cornerstone of lipid‐lowering therapy, their use may be limited in some patients by adverse effects. This study evaluated the possible impact of non‐drug treatment using double‐filtration plasmapheresis (DFPP) on CD14+

The Comparison of the IDA and ET on Steel Structures Rehabilitated by Isolators [PDF]
Journal of Rehabilitation in Civil Engineering, 2014 Endurance time (ET) method is a relatively new performance-based earthquake method for structural evaluation and design. In this method, the structure is subjected to a gradually intensifying accelorogram(s) and its performance is assessed based on the ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

Shock isolation systems incorporating Coulomb friction
, 2012 This study investigates a novel approach to the problem of shock isolation. The questions considered are whether friction produces a better performance in terms of reduced response during a shock compared to viscous damping and a lower residual response ...

Analytical Behavior of Multi-Storied Building with Base Isolation Subjected to Earthquake Loading
Journal of Engineering and Sustainable Development, 2013 This study involves analysis of multi-storied building to explain the behavior under seismic earthquake loading in two cases, (i.e. with or without base isolation system).

Influence of Seismic Pounding on RC Buildings with and without Base Isolation System Subject to Near-Fault Ground Motions [PDF]
Journal of Rehabilitation in Civil Engineering, 2013 Building pounding occurs between two adjacent buildings with small gap or without sufficient separation distance. It leads to damage buildings during earthquake due to impact.
