Objective Posttraumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) accounts for nearly 12% of osteoarthritis incidences and often occurs after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear. Ensuring the uptake of preventive treatments for PTOA requires that investigators and clinicians understand factors influencing patients to seek preventive therapies.

Refined Study on Free Vibration of a Cable with an Inertial Mass Damper
To accurately predict the optimum supplemental modal damping ratio of the cable and the corresponding size of the inertial mass damper (IMD), combined effects of the cable sag, the cable flexural rigidity, and the boundary conditions on the control ...

On joint distribution of range and terminal value of a Brownian motion [PDF]
In this note, we present the closed form solution for the joint distribution of the range and terminal value of a Brownian motion. Based on this distribution we build a range scaled terminal value distribution and show the derivation steps of its density, further s-density.

Objective Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a known comorbidity of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and is associated with PsA disease activity. We aimed to explore the association between MetS and radiographic features (peripheral and axial) in PsA. Methods We included patients with PsA followed at our prospective observational cohort for the period between 1978 ...

Meso-scale modelling of 3D woven composite T-joints with weave variations [PDF]
A meso-scale modelling framework is proposed to simulate the 3D woven fibre architectures and the mechanical performance of the composite T-joints, subjected to quasi-static tensile pull-off loading. The proposed method starts with building the realistic

Lap-joint corrosion of precoated materials for building applications
The adoption of designs involving the use of lap joints is becoming increasingly common in the building industry. However, precoated steel sheets assembled by lap joints are prone to suffer durability problems associated with this type of joint, such as the premature deterioration of protective coatings (metallic, organic) and accelerated metallic ...
