Seismic Design of Concrete Dams: An Integrated Risk‐Informed Performance‐Based (RIPB) Framework

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper advances the integration of risk‐informed principles into the seismic design of dams—a domain long guided by standards‐based, largely deterministic approaches. While performance‐based earthquake engineering is well established for buildings and bridges, its systematic adoption in dam engineering remains limited. We first address two

Analysis of numerical models of an integral bridge resting on an elastic half-space

open access: yesStudia Geotechnica et Mechanica
The paper presents three methods of the numerical modeling of a 60 m long integral bridge structure resting on an elastic half-space. For the analysis, three bridge models were built using Abaqus FEA software.

Rapamycin-Reactivated Lipid Catabolism in Eruca sativa Mill. Exposed to Salt Stress

open access: yesCells
Salt stress is one of the most common factors reducing the productivity of crops. We tested the effect of Rapamycin, an mTOR inhibitor and autophagy inducer, for the possible amelioration of high-salinity stress in Eruca sativa.

Simulations of Photovoltaic Systems on Different Types of Ships in Sweden: Solar Energy Generation, Comparison to Energy Consumption, and Reduction of CO2 Emission

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Investigation of the potential of using solar cells on different types of ships, to see how it reduces energy consumption and emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2). From the reduction in fuel consumption, the fuel cost reduction was estimated, and an approximate payback time for the solar cell system was calculated.

Perceived Partner Responsiveness Is Associated With Adolescent Sexual Wellbeing Over 1 Year

open access: yesJournal of Adolescence, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Research on adolescent sexuality is primarily cross‐sectional and often neglects interpersonal factors that may play a key role in promoting their sexual wellbeing, such as perceived partner responsiveness, that is, feeling understood, cared for, and accepted by a partner.

Expanding the genotypic spectrum of PCSK1 deficiency: A novel mutation in severe neonatal diarrhea

open access: yesJPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Among congenital diarrhea and enteropathies (CODEs), proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 1 (PCSK1) deficiency is a rare monogenic disorder, associated with severe neonatal diarrhea and polyendocrinopathies. We report an 18‐day‐old male neonate, born to consanguineous parents, presenting with persistent watery diarrhea, metabolic ...

Statistical Test of Distance--Duality Relation with Type Ia Supernovae and Baryon Acoustic Oscillations

open access: yes, 2018
We test the distance--duality relation $\eta \equiv d_L / [ (1 + z)^2 d_A ] = 1$ between cosmological luminosity distance ($d_L$) from the JLA SNe Ia compilation (arXiv:1401.4064) and angular-diameter distance ($d_A$) based on Baryon Oscillation ...
