Experimental investigation of reinforced concrete members subjected to reversed cyclic axial loading

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper presents an experimental campaign of five reinforced concrete members subjected to cyclic axial loading alternating between tension and compression. Fiber optical sensors and digital image correlation, in combination with automated crack detection and measurement, were used to investigate, among other aspects, the development of ...

Subjective Visual Vertical Can be an Effective Tool to Evaluate Vestibular Function of Stapedotomy

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate if the subjective visual vertical/horizontal (SVV/SVH) can be used to evaluate the otolith organ of otosclerosis and stapedotomy. Design A total of 19 patients who were diagnosed with otosclerosis and underwent surgical treatment in our hospital were collected.

Imaging gas in a combustion engine with high‐energy X‐ray Compton scattering

Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.
Compton‐scattering imaging has been applied to a combustion engine under operation for the first time. With a time‐resolved technique, a crank‐angle dependency of Compton‐scattered X‐ray intensity is obtained at different positions in a combustion chamber.We have developed a time‐resolved Compton‐scattering imaging technique for visualizing gas ...

Fatigue behaviour of root filled teeth: The role of endodontic sealers and restorative techniques

European Journal of Oral Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract This in vitro study aimed to evaluate the fatigue behaviour of root canal treated teeth, filled with either AH Plus Jet (AHP) or AH Plus Bioceramic Sealer (AHPB) and rehabilitated with either mesio‐occlusal‐distal (MOD) restorations (direct resin composite) or endocrowns (indirect resin composite).

Flow‐controlled expiration improves gas exchange in anaesthetised horses undergoing orthopaedic surgery

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Flow‐controlled expiration (FLEX) has been shown to significantly enhance oxygenation in horses under laboratory conditions. Objective This study aims to corroborate these findings by evaluating the effects of FLEX on gas exchange in a randomised clinical trial involving a large population of clinical horses undergoing orthopaedic ...

Full-link optical differential piston-sensing strategy towards extremely large segmented telescopes

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Explorations of Earth-like exoplanets mostly rely on the large segmented telescopes, which allow a larger primary-mirror diameter. Such segmentation requires a piston-monitoring procedure with successive steps from coarse-phasing to fine-phasing control in order to provide the high-resolution scientific image for stringent science operations ...

Effect of sintering cycle on the strength and translucency of multilayered zirconia

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose A newly introduced sintering protocol promises to offer higher translucency while not significantly compromising the flexural strength of the material. However, the effect of the novel sintering protocol has not been thoroughly validated.

Pressed lithium disilicate glass ceramics: Microstructural characterization, in vitro and in silico nonlinear dynamic analysis for biaxial flexural strength

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate the mechanical properties of lithium disilicates, and to assess the predictive capability of in silico models for biaxial flexural strength (BFS). Materials and Methods Specimens of four heat‐pressed lithium disilicates (IPS e.max Press, Rosetta SP, LiSi Press, Vintage Prime Press) were obtained.
