How Stress Can Reduce Dissipation in Glasses [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review B 84, 174109 (2011), 2011
We propose that stress can decrease the internal friction of amorphous solids, either by increasing the potential barriers of defects, thus reducing their tunneling and thermal activation that produce loss, or by decreasing the coupling between defects and phonons.

PTSD, depression, and anxiety among Palestinian women victims of domestic violence in the Gaza Strip [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: Domestic violence is a universal phenomenon which affects all family members and specially children and women. Common reactions to domestic violence are post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, and anxiety.

Caseness and comorbidity of probable (complex) post-traumatic stress disorder and depression in survivors of genocide against Tutsi in Rwanda: the role of social determinants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
<jats:p> Numerous studies have been conducted among survivors of the genocide against the Tutsi on the prevalence of depression and post-traumatic stress disorder. However, thus far, no studies provide information on the frequency of comorbidity of

Subthreshold Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder [PDF]

open access: yesPsikiyatride Güncel Yaklaşımlar, 2015
Post-traumatic stress disorder is a very broad category among mental disorders. Since its inclusion in DSM-III, the diagnostic criteria of post-traumatic stress disorder has undergone a number of changes.

The emergence of Airy stress function in two-dimensional disordered packings of particles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The packing of hard-core particles in contact with their neighbors offers the statically determinate problem which allows analytical investigation of the stress tensor distribution. We construct the stress probability functional and derive the complete set of equations for the tensor components in two-dimensions.

The Stress Transmission Universality Classes of Periodic Granular Arrays [PDF]

open access: yesPhysica A 292,No.1-4, 167-174 (2001), 1998
The transmission of stress is analysed for static periodic arrays of rigid grains, with perfect and zero friction. For minimal coordination number (which is sensitive to friction, sphericity and dimensionality), the stress distribution is soluble without reference to the corresponding displacement fields.

The epidemiology of post-traumatic stress disorder after disasters.

open access: yesEpidemiologic Reviews, 2005
Traumatic experiences are relatively common. More than two thirds of persons in the general population may experience a significant traumatic event at some point in their lives, and up to one fifth of people in the United States may experience such an ...

The Reward System and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder: Does Trauma Affect the Way We Interact With Positive Stimuli?

open access: yesChronic Stress, 2021
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a highly prevalent disorder and a highly debilitating condition. Although anhedonia is an important construct of the disorder, the relationship between PTSD and reward functioning is still under-researched.

Coordinated Stress-Structure Self-Organization in Granular Packing [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
During quasi-static dynamics of granular systems, the stress and structure self-organise, but there is currently no quantitative measure or understanding of this phenomenon. Such an understanding is essential because local structural properties of the settled material are then correlated with the local stress, which calls into question existing linear ...
