Dual potential capacity model for short and deep reinforced concrete members containing steel fibers
Abstract This study presents an analytical model for estimating the shear strength of short and deep steel fiber‐reinforced concrete (SFRC) members with a shear span‐to‐depth ratio less than 2.5. To this end, a dual potential capacity model (DPCM) is developed based on the demand‐capacity approach for evaluating the shear strength of SFRC beams that ...

Abstract The emerging relationship between fintechs and banks has revealed antitrust's antiquation. At one time, scholars predicted that fintechs could democratize banking while providing a critical source of competition. But then banks began to acquire their digital rivals: about 900 acquisitions of fintechs have taken place since 2021.

ABSTRACT The sealing performance of endodontic sealers may be influenced by environmental factors such as pH and blood‐derived proteins. This in vitro study evaluated the effects of pH variation and protein contamination on calcium ion (Ca2+) release and push‐out bond strength (BS) of a calcium silicate‐based sealer (Bio‐C Sealer) and an epoxy resin ...

Abstract This paper presents the first direct evidence of the slags produced during the cementation alloying process of Cu with speiss inside ceramic crucibles, thus representing Cu alloying with As in Middle Kingdom Egypt. The settlement deposits from the Middle Bronze Age were excavated on Elephantine Island, within modern Aswan.

Model‐Based Cost‐Effectiveness of Direct Restorations: Amalgam Dominates
ABSTRACT Objectives A phase‐down of dental amalgam use has been mandated and the feasibility of its phase‐out in England by 2030 is being explored. Amalgam use in English National Health Service (NHS) care still predominates for posterior restorations, though access to this care is increasingly limited.

Formaldehyde Emissions From 2‐Octyl Cyanoacrylate: Quantified Risk for Allergic Contact Dermatitis
This study found that 2‐octyl cyanoacrylate skin adhesives release formaldehyde at levels up to 8.4× above EPA dermal thresholds and up to 2.41× above NIOSH airborne limits, producing exposures sufficient to provoke allergic and irritant contact dermatitis in patients.

ABSTRACT Background Patch test results obtained with the European Baseline Series (EBS) in its current version serve both contact allergy surveillance and (re‐)assessing the diagnostic value of EBS allergens. Objectives To present results of current EBS patch testing, obtained in 59 departments in 14 European countries during 2021 and 2022.
