Influence of Construction Joint and Bridge Geometry on Integral Abutment Bridges

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
Although integral abutment bridges (IABs) have become a preferred construction choice for short- to medium-length bridges, they still have unclear bridge design guidelines.

Comparison of various FEM approaches in analysis of passive earth pressures

open access: yesComputer Assisted Methods in Engineering and Science, 2018
Passive earth pressure is an important element in integral bridge design. Due to the integral connection between bridge deck and abutments, the integral bridge expansion and contraction under temperature action causes abutments to move together with the

Seismic Performance Evaluation of a Fully Integral Concrete Bridge with End-Restraining Abutments

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2019
A fully integral bridge that is restrained at both ends by the abutments has been proposed to form a monolithic rigid frame structure. Thus, the feasible horizontal force effect due to an earthquake or vehicle braking is mainly prevented by the end ...

Unraveling A4GALT Mechanism and Its Modulation With Adamantyl‐Galactosylceramide Analogues: Advancing Fabry Disease Therapeutic Strategies

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A 310‐helix‐mediated conformational switch promotes a front‐face SNi‐like catalysis by human A4GALT. Mechanism‐guided design identifies AdaGalCer as a selective modulator of globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) biosynthesis, opening a clear route toward new Fabry disease therapeutics.

Neuronal Integration in an Abutting-Retinas Culture System

open access: yesInvestigative Opthalmology & Visual Science, 2003
Limited integration is consistently observed between subretinal transplants and host retinas. In the current study, an in vitro model system for studying connections forming between two abutting retinas was developed.Neuroretinas were dissected from normal wild-type (WT) mice and green fluorescent protein (GFP) transgenic mice (obtained at postnatal ...

Osseo integrated finger prosthesis with a custom abutment

open access: yesThe Journal of Indian Prosthodontic Society, 2017
One of the most regularly encountered forms of partial hand loss causing physical, psychosocial and financial burden to an individual is the finger amputation followed by trauma. The prosthetic rehabilitation of amputated finger is a good treatment option, when compared to all other means of complex and unaffordable options.

An innovative steel-concrete joint for integral abutment bridges

open access: yesJournal of Traffic and Transportation Engineering (English ed. Online), 2015
Integral abutment bridges are becoming rather common, due to the durability problems of bearings and expansion joints. At the same time, among short- and medium-span bridges, multi-beam steel-concrete composite deck with hot-rolled girder is an ...

Environment-Induced Performance of End Concrete Diaphragm in Skewed Semi-Integral Bridges

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
Past research has shown that as skewed bridges change temperature, additional lateral movement or forces will occur along with the elongation of the bridge. Even though past research has documented this behavior, lateral movements of semi-integral bridge

Assessment of Integral Abutment Retrofit Performance for Steel Bridges Subjected to Thermal Loading

open access: yesInfrastructures
Integral abutment bridges (IABs) eliminate deck joints by rigidly connecting the superstructure to the abutments, reducing maintenance costs but introducing thermal restraint forces.

Investigation on Flooding-Resistant Performance of Integral Abutment and Jointless Bridge

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2020
Bridge washouts connected to flood events are deemed one of the main reasons for structural collapse. Compared to traditional continuous jointed bridges, integral abutment and jointless bridges (IAJBs) have better lateral stability because there are no ...
