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 ...

Numerical Modelling of Integral Abutment Bridges

open access: yes, 2021
Integral Abutment Bridges (IABs) are well known for their lower construction and maintenance costs by eliminating expansion joints and bearings. The flexible piles supporting the end-span abutments offer the possibility of this expansion and contraction ...

An Integral Abutment Bridge with Precast Concrete Piles;TR-438, May 2007 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The use of precast, prestressed concrete piles in the foundation of bridge piers has long been recognized as a valuable option for bridge owners and designers. However, the use of these precast, prestressed concrete piles in integral abutment bridges has

Immunoinflammatory Mechanisms and Biocompatibility of Bioactive Dental Biomaterials: From Fundamental Insights to Clinical Translation

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Surface‐host dialogue at the implant interface governs biological fate and osseointegration. Surface physicochemical properties of titanium (Ti) dental implants, including microgrooves, nanopatterns, nanotopography, roughness, and wettability, modulate the initial adsorption of proteins and the formation of a dynamic biointerface.

Soil Structure Interaction of Integral Abutment Bridges

open access: yes, 2022
n/aIntegral abutment bridges (IABs) are monolithically rigid structures distinguished by eliminating the use of expansion and bearing joints. This leads to enhanced structural performance and reduced maintenance costs. However, the complex soil-structure

G3BP1 Succinylation at K413 is Critical for Cardiac Function by Modulating PI3K‐AKT‐mTOR Signal Axis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Schematic illustrating the impact of G3BP1 succinylation at K413 on cardiac function. In the healthy human heart, G3BP1 succinylation maintains homeostatic mTOR signaling. In patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and heart failure (HF), G3BP1 de‐succinylation induces RagA expression and disrupts the binding of the TSC1/2 complex, leading to the ...

Oral Motion‐Powered Smart Dental Implant Abutment for In Situ Antibacterial and Cell Adhesion Through Piezoelectric Effect

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We proposed a method based on the piezoelectric effect and fabricated an implant abutment on the basis of piezoelectric ceramic. Under physiological occlusal pressure, the oral motion‐powered smart dental implant abutments interacted with water and oxygen, promoting the formation of reactive oxygen species and achieving a synergistic and highly ...

Soil-structure interactions due to cyclic translations of integral abutment

open access: yes, 2022
The primary objective of this thesis is to investigate soil-structure interactions due to cyclic abutment translations and the mechanisms causing soil settlement/heave and escalation of lateral earth pressure behind the integral abutment.
