A transverse loading technique to enhance the pressure measurement capability of fibre Bragg gratings [PDF]

, 2008
A fibre optic pressure sensor based on the application of a transverse load onto an epoxy-resin material embedded over a sub-section of a fibre Bragg grating (FBG) is presented.

Experimental and analytical investigation of the lateral load response of confined masonry walls

, 2016
This paper investigates the behavior of confined masonry walls subjected to lateral loads. Six full-scale wall assembles, consisting of a clay masonry panel, two confining columns and a tie beam, were tested under a combination of vertical load and ...

White Matter and Perivascular Imaging Changes in Alzheimer's Disease and Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Peak‐width of skeletonized mean diffusivity (PSMD) and diffusion tensor imaging–analysis along the perivascular space (DTI‐ALPS), reflecting white matter integrity and glymphatic function, are altered in Alzheimer's disease (AD).

Simplified Design Method of Laterally Loaded Rigid Monopiles in Cohesionless Soil

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
This paper presents a simplified design method for laterally loaded rigid monopiles in cohesionless soil. The proposed design method is based on a constant depth of the rotation point and a bi-linear distribution of soil lateral reaction along the ...

Data‐Driven SuStaIn Model of Disability Progression in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To determine whether ordinal Subtype and Stage Inference (SuStaIn) applied to routine ALSFRS‐R item scores can identify reproducible disability progression patterns in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and provide clinically meaningful staging.

Shear Resistance for Lateral Force of Light-frame Wall Sheathed with Structural Particleboard (PB)

BioResources
The shear resistance of a structural particleboard (PB) wall was evaluated as a means to utilize recycled wood and low-grade logs for long periods. The wall was composed of spruce-pine-fir (SPF) lumber, nails, and structural PB, which was developed by ...

Boundary‐Dependent Sleep–Wake Dysregulation in Idiopathic Hypersomnia

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Idiopathic hypersomnia (IH) presents with excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) despite apparently preserved nocturnal sleep, challenging traditional models of hypersomnolence based on sleep loss or fragmentation. We aimed to test the hypothesis that EDS in IH reflects excessive stabilization of the sleep state, consistent with ...

Optimal Shear Wall Placement for Seismic Performance: A Comparative Study of Building Codes [PDF]

Computational Engineering and Physical Modeling
Shear walls are one of the most popular lateral load-resisting methods used in high-rise structures. Major design factors against structural collapse in RC buildings include lateral stresses (wind, seismic).

Cerebrospinal Fluid Over Plasma Links Analytes to Cognitive Decline in Older Adults at Risk for Alzheimer's Disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To identify inflammatory analytes in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and plasma associated with cognitive decline in cognitively normal (CN) older adults at risk for Alzheimer's disease (AD). Methods In a longitudinal study of 118 CN older adults (65–80 years, 54% APOE ε4, 26% preclinical AD), 1331 CSF and 1501 plasma analytes were ...
