A Method for Analyzing Transverse Stress in Link Slabs of Simply Supported Steel–Concrete Composite Bridges

Buildings
The cracking of link slabs in jointless bridges presents significant challenges due to the complexity of their stress conditions. This study focused on analyzing the transverse stresses in link slabs of jointless steel–concrete composite bridges ...

Casale's tube with VQZ stoma: An alternative to “double Monti”

Indian Journal of Urology, 2019
In situations requiring an ileal segment for performing a Mitrofanoff cathetrisable urinary diversion, occasionally a “Double Monti” is needed to achieve a length for the cathetrisable channel to conveniently reach the abdomen of an adult.

Numerical investigation on primary and secondary cracks in thick concrete members

Structural Concrete, Volume 27, Issue 1, Page 96-110, February 2026.
Abstract This study investigates the crack formation process in thick reinforced concrete members subjected to imposed deformations, focusing on the development of secondary cracks in addition to geometrically set primary cracks. A validated nonlinear fracture‐plastic finite element model is used to analyze the influence of reinforcement layout, member

Sequence and Analysis of the Tomato JOINTLESS Locus [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 2001
Abstract A 119-kb bacterial artificial chromosome from theJOINTLESS locus on the tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) chromosome 11 contained 15 putative genes. Repetitive sequences in this region include onecopia-like LTR retrotransposon, 13 simple sequence repeats, three copies of a novel type III foldback transposon, and four putative ...

Study on Mechanical Behavior of Longitudinal Wet Joints of Prefabricated Assembled Beam

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This study investigates the impact of various interface construction techniques on the bending strength of longitudinal wet joints in bridge superstructures through experimentation. A functional relationship between measured bending strength and theoretical shear strength values is established by finite element simulation.

Construction of an Equivalent Digital Rock Mass Based on CT Scans of Coal and the Control of Joint Dip Angle on Its Mechanical Behavior

International Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The joint dip angle has a significant influence on the mechanical behavior of coal, and revealing its influence mechanism is a scientific premise for analyzing mining‐induced mechanical behavior of coal mining. However, the geometric shape of coal joints is complex, and the previous research methods of artificially prefabricated cracks are difficult to

Tomato flowering depends on overlapping functions of AP1/FUL‐like genes in reproductive meristem specification

New Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 2, Page 1002-1020, October 2025.
Summary AP1/FUL‐clade transcription factors (TFs) are essential for the initiation and regulation of flowering and have clearly separated functions in Arabidopsis. However, how these functions have diverged across eudicots remains unclear. Here, we performed a detailed analysis to unravel the distinct and overlapping functions of the tomato AP1 ...

Genetic Consequences of Tree Planting Versus Natural Colonisation: Implications for Afforestation Programmes in the United Kingdom

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 18, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT The United Kingdom aims to dramatically accelerate the establishment of new woodlands by 2050, yet the impact of different afforestation strategies on landscape genetic diversity and resilience remains unclear. This study integrates environmental data, whole‐genome sequencing and phenotypic assessments to compare bioclimatic envelopes, genetic

Integrated Transcriptomic and Metabolomic Profiling Identifies Candidate Genes and Pathways Associated With Pedicel Abscission Susceptibility in Capsicum annuum

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 7, July 2025.
Capsicum germplasm lines with distinct pedicel abscission behaviors were analyzed via integrated transcriptomics and metabolomics. Differential lignification patterns, hormone signaling, and flavonoid biosynthesis were linked to abscission susceptibility.
