A Numerical Investigation of the Performance of Damaged Concrete Barriers Under Sequential Vehicular Impacts

open access: yesBuildings
Concrete median barriers are prone to damage from low-velocity impacts. However, there is a limited understanding of how damage from initial impacts affects barriers’ long-term performance and whether they maintain safe continued service or must be ...

Validity of a Wearable Digital Insole for Assessing Gait ON and OFF in Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Gait impairment is a distinctive symptom of Parkinson's disease that negatively impact mobility. We assessed the validity of wearable digital insoles against a validated reference gait analysis system for measuring select gait characteristics in patients with Parkinson's disease. Methods A comparative analysis between digital insoles

Multidimensional Profiling of MRI‐Negative Temporal Lobe Epilepsy Uncovers Distinct Phenotypes

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Although hippocampal sclerosis (TLE‐HS) represents the most frequent cause of temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), up to 30% of patients show no lesion on visual MRI inspection (TLE‐MRIneg). These cases pose diagnostic and therapeutic challenges and are underrepresented in surgical series.

Sesquinary catenae on the Martian satellite Phobos from reaccretion of escaping ejecta

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
The origin of the numerous linear grooves and craters that litter the Martian moon Phobos' surface remains enigmatic. Here, by modelling low-velocity escaping ejecta from impacts to Phobos, the authors show that several of these chains can be explained ...

Innate Immune Reprogramming Mediated by Endogenous Retroelement Dysregulation Drives Multiple Sclerosis Progression

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
Epigenetic reprogramming in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) and downstream myeloid cells, mediated by H3.3 downregulation and endogenous retroelement (ERE) overexpression, contributes to the progression of multiple sclerosis (MS). ABSTRACT Background Skewed myelopoiesis in the bone marrow has been identified as a key driver of multiple ...

Experimental validation of efficient impact simulation methodologies of sandwich structures

open access: yes, 2007
Aircraft design calls for weight efficient shell constructions. Composite sandwich structures satisfy this demand by the combination of two thin, stiff face sheets and an intermediate lightweight core.

Experimental and numerical study of AA5086-H111 aluminum plates subjected to impact [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
An experimental and numerical study of medium-velocity impact (within the range of 120 m/s) has been conducted on thin AA5086-H111 aluminum square plates. Targets with different thicknesses (between 2.5 and 4 mm), stratifications and aluminum alloys have

Calibration of the low‐velocity impact experiments

open access: yesPolymer Composites
AbstractLow‐velocity impact experiments are essential for evaluating the mechanical behavior and impact resistance of composite materials in engineering applications. These experiments are primarily based on the measurement of the force‐time signal and a few parameters, including impact energy, impact velocity, and mass.
