Strain Rates in Prestressed Concrete Sleepers and Effects on Cracking Loads
Prestressed concrete sleepers (PCSs) play an essential role in structural response and performance of ballasted railway tracks. Due to defects in track or train components, high magnitude dynamic loads may generate at the rail head and transfer to the ...

Maternal Ethnic‐Racial Enculturation: Implications for Social Skill Development in Early Childhood
ABSTRACT The influence of maternal enculturation on the social skill development of ethnically and racially diverse young children remains understudied. Because social skills reflect culturally situated norms, evaluations of competence may vary depending on which skills are privileged within an evaluative framework.

Numerical investigation of the dynamic compressive behaviour of rock materials at high strain rate [PDF]
The dynamic compressive strength of rock materials increases with the strain rate. They are usually obtained by conducting laboratory tests such as split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) test or drop-weight test.

Novel Sulfur‐Rich Polymers from Inverse Vulcanization as Functional Building Blocks for Photonics
Isopropenyl aromatic comonomers, in particular novel 2,7‐diisopropenylfluorene and 2,8‐diisopropenyldibenzothiophene, synthesized by sustainable, facile, single‐step SMCCR from available brominated substrates are exploited in the Inverse Vulcanization process to obtain functional Sulfur‐rich macromolecular materials.

Multiple Roles of Protamine Kinase SRPK1 and Phosphatase PP1γ in Sperm Development
ABSTRACT Protein phosphorylation regulates key events of male germ cell differentiation. In the testis, SRPK1 and PP1γ are involved in protamine phosphorylation and dephosphorylation, respectively, and their deregulation is linked to defective chromatin structure and male infertility.

Dynamic increase factors for progressive collapse analysis of steel structures considering column buckling [PDF]
Progressive or disproportionate collapse of structures may have severe socio-economic consequences. Aiming at buildings that can withstand such events, one solution is to prevent or minimize the propagation of damage that may lead to progressive collapse

ABSTRACT Aim Current estimates suggest that about 1.7% of the general population meets criteria for clinical high‐risk for psychosis (CHR), but Latinx individuals are more likely to be at higher risk due to factors that could inflate rates of symptomatology.
