Background and Purpose Episodic ataxia type 1 (EA1) is an autosomal dominant neurological disorder caused primarily by loss‐of‐function mutations in the voltage‐gated potassium channel Kv1.1 (KCNA1). Small molecules that restore Kv1.1 activity hold promise as targeted therapies for EA1, yet current pharmacological strategies remain limited ...

Abstract I‐sections dominate conventional steel construction but exhibit direction‐dependent stability behavior, and in fire the steel's modulus of elasticity decreases rapidly. We therefore investigate a composite load‐bearing system in which the web cavities of I‐section beams are infilled with timber elements made of spruce glulam (GLT‐S) and beech ...

Applied Element Modelling of Out‐Of‐Plane Instability in Boundary Elements of Thin RC Walls
ABSTRACT Recent earthquakes in Chile (2010) and New Zealand (2011) caused extensive damage to buildings featuring reinforced concrete (RC) structural walls, with observed failure modes including out‐of‐plane instability of slender walls. This buckling‐type response under combined in‐plane and out‐of‐plane loading has also been documented in ...

Validity of Design Standards in Shear Strength of CFRP Concrete Member Without Shear Reinforcement
The shear design of concrete members reinforced with Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) bars remains a key hurdle for engineers. This study experimentally investigates the shear behavior of normal-strength concrete members reinforced with CFRP bars ...

Pull-Out Resistance Capacity of a New Perfobond Shear Connector for Steel Pile Cap Strengthening
This study proposes a new type of the perfobond shear connector, which can be used to strengthen the steel pile cap embedded into the structure foundation, and evaluates its pull-out resistance capacity by performing a test on ten specimens.

Effects of Wall‐to‐Floor Interactions on Seismic Response of Platform‐Type CLT Buildings
ABSTRACT Platform‐type cross‐laminated timber (CLT) buildings feature discontinuous wall segments supported by CLT floors. In practice, CLT floors are often treated as rigid diaphragm, yet the wall‐to‐floor interactions (WFIs) associated with flexibility of floors remain insufficiently investigated during seismic performance assessment.
