Development and preclinical evaluation of a hybrid stereoelectroencephalographic–laser depth electrode for magnetic resonance imaging‐guided interstitial thermal therapy in drug‐resistant epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study was undertaken to design and validate a hybrid depth electrode combining stereoelectroencephalographic (sEEG) recording and magnetic resonance‐guided laser interstitial thermal therapy (MRgLITT) under real‐time magnetic resonance thermometry, to streamline the transition from invasive localization to focal ablation in ...

Analytical Framework for System‐Level Fragility Surfaces of Reinforced Concrete Bridges Under Mainshock‐Aftershock Sequences

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Conventional single intensity measure (IM) fragility approaches with simplified component dependency assumptions overlook the progressive damage accumulation and evolving inter‐component correlations that govern system behavior under mainshock‐aftershock (MSAS) loading.

Behavior of integral abutment bridges considering seasonal temperature at construction completion

Soils and Foundations
Seasonal temperature-induced cyclic displacements impose repetitive stresses and cumulative deformations on the backfill behind integral abutment bridges, adversely impacting the serviceability of the integral abutment bridge (IAB).

Climate Driven Water Table Changes and Their Influence on Liquefaction Response of Integral Bridges

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Integral abutment bridges (IABs) eliminate bearings and joints but transfer seismic demand directly into the surrounding soil, making their response highly sensitive to groundwater conditions and soil–structure interaction. This study presents a 60 g centrifuge testing programme on single‐span IABs designed to isolate the influence of water ...

Surrogate‐Based Time‐Continuous Seismic Fragility Assessment of Corrosion‐Deteriorated Reinforced Concrete Bridges Under Climate Change

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seismic fragility assessment of reinforced concrete (RC) bridges exposed to corrosive environments must reliably capture time‐dependent deterioration impacts. Climate change compounds this challenge through nonstationary temperature and humidity variations that accelerate bridge corrosion.

Cyclic soil-structure interaction of integral railway bridges

Frontiers in Built Environment
Integral bridges with larger spans experience increased cyclic interaction with their backfill, particularly due to seasonal temperature changes. This can result in a continuous increase of earth pressure (during the summer positions) as well as an ...

Seismic Fragility of Gravity and Semi‐Gravity Retaining Walls and Its Impact on the Functionality Loss of Road Infrastructures

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Retaining walls are key geotechnical components of road infrastructure, whose seismic performance directly affects the resilience of transportation networks. Despite their importance, seismic fragility models for retaining walls available in the literature refer only to specific case studies.

Tectono‐Sedimentary Evolution of the Neogene İnegöl Basin (NW Anatolia): Constraints on Transtensional Basin Development at the Junction of the Western Anatolian Extensional Province and the North Anatolian Fault Zone

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
The study outlines the tectono‐sedimentary evolution of the İnegöl Basin in north‐western Anatolia. Basin formation was controlled by interacting extensional and strike‐slip fault systems linked to uplift of the Uludağ Massif. Terrestrial sedimentation from the Miocene to Pleistocene is reconstructed using abundant fossil mammal assemblages that ...

Experimental verification of numerical model of integral bridge

Budownictwo i Architektura, 2014
The paper presents the results of analyses of displacements for a real reinforced concrete integral bridge. The research consisted of the measurement of vertical displacement in the middle of the span and lateral displacement of the abutment.

Are the detection and dimensions of peri‐implant buccal bone defects influenced by different implant materials and their location? An experimental cone‐beam computed tomography study

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of different implant materials and arrangements within the field of view (FOV) and exomass on the diagnostic accuracy and image quality of cone‐beam computed tomography (CBCT) for the detection of peri‐implant buccal bone defects of various sizes. Methods A total of 120 CBCT scans with
