INSTABILITY OF A PRE-STRESSED SOLID–FLUID MIXTURE [PDF]
Waves and Stability in Continuous Media, 2006 A solid-fluid mixture is generally modelled assuming that the state of stress in the reference configuration is identically equal to zero. However, such an assumption is not always appropriate to take into account some instability phenomena occuring in Nature.

Early Impact of Childhood Opportunity on Neurocognitive Outcomes in Sickle Cell Disease
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Neurocognitive impairment is a well‐recognized complication of sickle cell disease (SCD) that begins early in childhood and persists across development. While cerebrovascular injury contributes substantially to risk, neurocognitive deficits are also observed in children without overt or silent cerebral infarctions, suggesting ...

Influence of changes in the prestress force on dynamic specifications of the prestressed concrete beam [PDF]
Numerical Methods in Civil Engineering, 2020 Pre-stress techniques tend to increase cross-sectional capacity and optimize design. Such features have made these techniques rather popular. Over time, these structures tend to fail, and the reduction of pre-stress force over the lifetime of the ...

Mechanism Analysis of RC Slabs Strengthened with Pre-stressed and Non Pre-stressed FRP [PDF]
, 2016 The behaviour of un-strengthened RC column-slabs and RC column-slabs strengthened with non-prestressed and prestressed FRP sheets are evaluated by use of experimental tests and numerical analyses. The results show a significant increase in the ultimate load capacity for the RC column-slab strengthened with non-prestressed FRP in comparison with the un ...
