An innovative ductile steel connection for precast reinforced concrete frames
Abstract Moment‐resisting frames (MRFs) are vital systems for dissipating seismic energy through plastic hinge formation at beam ends. In conventional MRFs, beams must resist both gravity and seismic forces, making repair after earthquakes difficult, particularly in reinforced concrete (RC) structures.

ABSTRACT Self‐centering rocking structures outperform conventional ones since they show zero post‐earthquake damage and excellent recentering; however, their applications remain limited due to concerns that rocking is extremely sensitive and nonrepeatable. This paper investigates the repeatability and parasitic out‐of‐plane motion of controlled rocking

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Cervical cancer remains a leading cause of cancer‐related deaths among women in low‐resource settings like Uganda. Screening is essential for early detection and prevention, yet knowledge, attitudes, and uptake among university females are poorly understood.

Created with BioRender.com. ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are widely studied as mediators of intercellular communication, yet their quantitative characterization remains inconsistent. In this study, we investigated how vesicle release rate, cellular proliferation, and tumour origin jointly shape EV‐associated protein output. Using a panel of 19

ABSTRACT In this work, we present an extension of the semi‐discrete Lagrangian‐Eulerian numerical scheme for diffusive‐dispersive conservation law problems, including a jump discontinuous flux function. As in the one‐dimensional scalar hyperbolic case, the no‐flow curves also organize the geometry of the method.
