Mechanisms of kidney damage

Urologiia, 2019
The results of recent studies on the mechanisms of kidney damage are presented in the review of literature. The role of the immune system in the occurrence, development and outcome of damage to the epithelium of the renal tubules, as well as molecular, genetic and metabolic changes which determine the extent and consequences of renal trauma are ...

Mechanisms of Liver Damage

Seminars in Liver Disease, 1996
The liver is implicated in many processes, and its failure induces severe consequences for metabolism, immune response, detoxification and antimicrobial defenses. The mechanisms involved in liver injury are complex and interactive, and can be artificially separated as chemical and immune injuries.

Experimental Glaucoma Damage Mechanism

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1983
To the Editor. —In the JanuaryArchives(1983;101:94-97) Sossi and Anderson reported the results of an experiment on the mechanism of damage to cat optic nerve by intraocular pressure elevation of four hours, using the degree of axonal transport block as a measure of axonal injury. In some animals, BP was artificially lowered or raised to produce a wide

Material Damage and Continuum Damage Mechanics

2011
Continuum damage mechanics is a mechanical theory for analyzing damage and fracture processes in materials from a continuum mechanics point of view. The present chapter starts with the notion of material damage and that of continuum damage mechanics. Section 1.1 is concerned with the definition of damage, its mechanical aspects observed in different ...

Continuum Damage Mechanics

2015
This chapter introduces the general concept of ductile damage, i.e. the development of microvoids and pores due to large plastic strains and deformations. The general definitions of damage based on a scalar damage variable as the surface damage variable or the void volume fraction are introduced and experimental approaches to measure the quantity of ...

Lumped Damage Mechanics

2015
As aforementioned, buildings in seismic zones must be designed to behave elastically under service loads or earthquakes of small intensity, and they can enter in the plastic range for events of intermediate intensity. Severe earthquakes are defined as those that are improbable but not impossible to happen during the lifetime of the structure.
