Out-of-Plane Response of Infill Masonry Walls [PDF]
The in-plane effect of infill walls on the structural response of reinforced concrete frames has been widely acknowledged via numerous experimental and numerical investigations and, as a result, the need to consider their effect on structural response has been acknowledged (indicated) in the latest generation of structural design codes worldwide.

Production of 3D printed biomodels of the canine brain for veterinary neuroanatomy teaching
Abstract Teaching neuroanatomy presents multiple challenges to both students and teachers, as it is a subject with highly dense content that commonly causes the development of aversion by students, a phenomenon referred to as “neurophobia,” which has been documented in human and veterinary medicine students.

Low‐Field MRI as a Multiparametric Tool for Large Engineered Tissue Characterization
ABSTRACT Advances in 3D bioprinting have enabled the fabrication of large and complex engineered tissues, but their increasing size demands non‐invasive tools for monitoring structure, maturation, and perfusion. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) offers unique multiparametric capabilities, yet high‐field systems remain costly and inaccessible for most ...

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Through shear–tensile creep tests and viscoelastic modeling, the fracture evolution of thick soft protective layers is clarified. Results show thickness‐dependent rheological failure modes that govern four types of roof water inrush, providing a mechanism‐based framework for hazard prediction and control. Abstract In the Jurassic coal‐bearing strata of
