Experimental and design‐oriented research on fiber reinforced concrete segmental tunnel linings: A systematic review

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The use of fiber reinforced concrete (FRC) in precast tunnel segments is among the most established and representative applications of this material. Over the past two decades, numerous tunnel linings were constructed with partial or total substitution of conventional steel reinforcement by fibers, this yielding to quantifiable benefits in ...

Dielectric Breakdown Characteristics of Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene Films: Surface Structures on Thickness Dependence

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Film capacitors, essential for energy storage in power systems, benefit from reduced film thickness to increase capacitance and lower costs. While the inverse power law traditionally links higher electric strength with thinner films, its validity diminishes below a critical thickness.

Water sorption of dental resin composites: Is a new method the future?

European Journal of Oral Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Intraoral, diffusion‐controlled water sorption leads to dimensional expansion and mechanical degradation over time. Measurement of small quantities of water in dental resin composites (RCs) is challenging, as current techniques rely on weighing approaches. Here, we evaluate Karl‐Fischer Titration (KFT) and thermogravimetry (TG) as alternatives

Injuries to the superficial digital flexor tendon branches: Clinical presentation, diagnostic features and outcome

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Background Injury of the superficial digital flexor tendon (SDFT) branch is uncommon and the response to different treatments has not been reported. Objectives The aim of this study was to describe the clinical presentation, diagnostic features, treatment methods, and outcome of horses diagnosed with SDFT branch injuries.

Needle tenoscopy of the digital flexor tendon sheath in four horses

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Background Tenoscopy, performed under general anaesthesia (GA), remains the gold standard diagnostic modality for assessment of the digital flexor tendon sheath (DFTS). A cadaver study described needle tenoscopy of the DFTS in a standing horse model, but the procedure has not been reported in clinical cases.
