Computational modeling of reinforced concrete dapped‐end beams

Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract The structural response of reinforced concrete dapped‐end beams is simulated through finite element analysis. The case study consists in experimental tests performed in the framework of an Italian research project on bridges. The study assesses both the local and global behavior of the beam and characterizes the damage patterns.

Characteristics of oral mucosal pressure injuries in children with orotracheal intubation in intensive care units: An observational study

Nursing in Critical Care, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Tracheal intubation can be used for ventilation to ensure an unobstructed respiratory tract, and it is the most common respiratory support technique used in paediatric intensive care unit (PICU) patients. Orotracheal intubation is usually the preferred method of tracheal intubation. However, it can cause stress‐related damage to the

Evaluation of the effect of elective percutaneous intervention to left coronary artery disease on left ventricular functions: an echocardiography and tissue Doppler study

Al-Azhar Assiut Medical Journal, 2018
Background and Aim Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of death worldwide. After acute myocardial infarction (AMI), CAD is a serious and common ailment that can influence a patient’s prognosis and quality of life. Aim of the study The aim

The Dual‐Edged State Paradox: Fighting for Justice When the State is Unreliable

Sociological Inquiry, EarlyView.
Sociological theories of collective resistance offer insights into how communities mobilize against oppression but often overlook the complexities when the state, an entity relied upon for justice, also acts as an agent of betrayal. Based on 8 years of ethnographic research in Palermo (2016–2024), this study examines the relationship between Sicilian ...

Self-referencing photothermal common-path interferometry to measure absorption of Si3N4 membranes for laser-light sails [PDF]

arXiv
Laser-light sails are a spacecraft concept wherein lightweight "sails" are propelled to high speeds by lasers with high intensities. The sails must comprise materials with low optical loss, to minimize the risk of laser damage. Stoichiometric silicon nitride (Si$_3$N$_4$) is a candidate material with low loss in the near infrared, but the precise ...

A deterministic projector configuration interaction approach for the ground state of quantum many-body systems [PDF]

arXiv, 2016
In this work we propose a novel approach to solve the Schr\"{o}dinger equation which combines projection onto the ground state with a path-filtering truncation scheme. The resulting projector configuration interaction (PCI) approach realizes a deterministic version of the full configuration interaction quantum Monte Carlo (FCIQMC) method [Booth, G. H.;

Serial Change and Clinical Impact of Irregular Protrusion in Lesions With Chronic Coronary Syndrome

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 105, Issue 5, Page 1149-1160, April 1, 2025.
ABSTRACT Background The changes over time and effects on long‐term clinical outcomes beyond 1 year of irregular protrusion (IP) in chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) remains unclear. Aims This study aimed to assess the time‐dependent change and long‐term clinical impact of IP in CCS lesions.
