Recent developments in acoustic emission for better performance of structural materials
Acoustic emission (AE) is casually used for characterization of materials and structures. The damage mechanisms emit elastic signals with distinguishable characteristics allowing their identification as has been verified in all types of cementitious ...

The hydration kinetics of sesame seed varieties were assessed at temperatures of 35–55°C. The Peleg model can adequately fit for simulating the hydration of sesame seed varieties at various temperatures. The rate of water absorption for sesame seed was significantly influenced by the temperature range evaluated.

Differences in secondary free carnitine (C0) deficiency and biochemical phenotypes related to genotype (ACADM) and age are reported. C0 deficiency occurred earlier and more frequently in c.985A>G homozygotes compared to other pathogenic genotypes. No patient carrying c.199C>T developed C0 deficiency.

Abstract Glutaric aciduria type 1 is a rare inherited neurometabolic disorder of lysine metabolism caused by pathogenic gene variations in GCDH (cytogenic location: 19p13.13), resulting in deficiency of mitochondrial glutaryl‐CoA dehydrogenase (GCDH) and, consequently, accumulation of glutaric acid, 3‐hydroxyglutaric acid, glutaconic acid and ...

Sensor Size Effect on Rayleigh Wave Velocity on Cementitious Surfaces
Concrete properties and damage conditions are widely evaluated by ultrasonics. When access is limited, the evaluation takes place from a single surface. In this case, the sensor size plays a crucial role due to the “aperture effect”. While this effect is
