Experimental Study of the Creep Effect on the Mechanical Properties of Concrete

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2019
Available researches regarding the effect of a sustained load on concrete are limited and sometimes contradictory. In the specific context of prestressed concrete and more generally for all other concrete structures, the effect of creep on the residual ...

Navigating AI with pedagogical purpose: Toward an anatomy‐centered framework for AI‐enhanced learning

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Artificial Intelligence (AI) has emerged as a transformative force in medical education, enabling customized, feedback‐rich, and immersive learning experiences. Anatomy education, as a discipline that is simultaneously visual, spatial, and clinically foundational, occupies a distinctive position within this technological landscape.

Creep of refractory concretes

open access: yes, 2018
Uniaxial compressive creep of a 90+% Al(,2)O(,3) and 50+% Al(,2)O(,3) refractory concrete was investigated. The creep behavior was evaluated as a function of aggregate packing, cement composition, and time at temperatures up to 2200(DEGREES)F and stresses up to 2500 psi;Refractory concrete crept more when heated the first time than on subsequent ...

“They say we're a rights‐respecting school but nobody knows what that really means”: Children's rights implementation in a Scottish secondary school

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Education has been an enduring feature of international human rights law since the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in 1948 and is the only human right that is compulsory for children. Appearing in all major human rights treaties, including the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, education is multidimensional and a multiplier of ...

Breaking point: Identifying the factors that predict suspension from school

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract School suspensions are associated with adverse educational and psychosocial outcomes, yet little is known about how structural disadvantage, relational factors, health behaviours, well‐being indicators and school‐level factors jointly predict suspension risk in England.

Bacterial backpacks for targeted delivery of piezoelectric nanoparticles to enhance sonodynamic immunotherapy

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Leveraging bacterial hypoxia targeting, KBTO NPs accumulate at the tumor site. Under the ultrasound irradiation, KBTO NPs produce reactive oxygen species to kill tumor cells and eliminate bacteria, preventing overgrowth and inflammation. The lysed bacteria act as antigens to trigger antitumor immunity and further enhanced by the immune checkpoint ...

Animal empathy reconsidered: a multidimensional profile account

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Empathy is the glue that holds societies together and yet several fundamental questions about empathy persist. What is empathy (the definitional question)? Is it uniquely human and, if not, which nonhuman animals possess empathy (the distribution question)? Which type or quality of empathy is realized in different species (the quality question)

Accelerated Creep of Asphalt Concrete at Medium Temperatures

open access: yesApplied Sciences
In this paper, the accelerated creep under uniaxial tension of hot fine-grained dense asphalt concrete at temperatures of 22–24 °C and stresses from 0.084 MPa to 0.596 MPa is experimentally investigated.
