Effects of Shrinkage Reducing Agent and Expansive Additive on Plastic Shrinkage of Mortar at Different Temperatures [PDF]
In the construction, it is inevitable to perform plaster work in hot weather which causes the dehydration and rapid shrinkage on the paste during the early age. This research shows the studies of reducing the plastic shrinkage of mortar during the early age with such additives as the Shrinkage Reducing Agent (SRA), the Expansive Additive (EX), and the ...

AT1 Receptor Antagonism to Reduce Aortic Expansion in Marfan Syndrome [PDF]
Marfan syndrome is an inherited autosomal dominant disorder of the connective tissue caused by mutations in the gene encoding fibrillin-1 ( FBN1 ).1,2 This disease has affected the ATVB community with the loss of 1 of our highly respected members, David Williams.3 The most devastating health issues of patients with Marfan syndrome are dissection and ...

Subsystem eigenstate thermalization hypothesis for entanglement entropy in CFT
We investigate a weak version of subsystem eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH) for a two-dimensional large central charge conformal field theory by comparing the local equivalence of high energy state and thermal state of canonical ensemble.
