Changes in rib cage geometry during childhood. [PDF]

open access: yesThorax, 1984
Age related changes in rib cage geometry were found from measurements made on chest radiographs from 38 individuals aged from 1 month to 31 years and on computed tomography (CT) scans in another 28 individuals, aged from 3 months to 18 years. Chest radiographs were taken for minor respiratory symptoms or fever and only films showing no abnormality were

Variability of Child Rib Bone Hounsfield Units using in vivo Computed Tomography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The variability assessment of the rib bone mechanical properties during the growth process is still missing. These properties could not be obtained in vivo on children.

On the effectiveness of shear reinforcement type in GFRP‐reinforced concrete beams: Experimental study

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigated the shear performance of concrete beams with GFRP stirrups vs. traditional steel stirrups. Longitudinal glass fiber‐reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars were used to doubly reinforce the tested beams at both the top and bottom of their cross sections. To accomplish this, several stirrup spacings were provided.

The influence of casting position and depth of concrete pour on bond strength

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Bond strength of steel bars cast near the top of a concrete pour may be lower than that of bars cast close to the bottom due to an increase in water content, to consolidation of fluid concrete below the bar, or to both. Current design codes typically require increases of 20%–40% in anchorage and lap lengths in “poor” bond conditions to allow ...

Development and Validation of a Musculoskeletal Model of the Fully Articulated Thoracolumbar Spine and Rib Cage.

open access: yesJournal of Biomechanical Engineering, 2015
We developed and validated a fully articulated model of the thoracolumbar spine in opensim that includes the individual vertebrae, ribs, and sternum. To ensure trunk muscles in the model accurately represent muscles in vivo, we used a novel approach to ...

Erving Goffman at 100: A Chameleon Seen as a Rorschach Test within a Kaleidoscope

open access: yesSymbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
The 100th anniversary of Erving Goffman's birth was in 2022. Drawing on his work, the Goffman archives, the secondary literature, and personal experiences with him and those in his university of Chicago cohort, I reflect on some implications of his work and life, and the inseparable issues of understanding society.

A Novel Technique for the Measurement of Chest Wall Kinematics Using Low Cost Stretch Sensors

open access: yesSukkur IBA Journal of Emerging Technologies
Measurement of breathing patterns and thoracoabdominal movement (chest wall kinematics) is essential in studying patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD), patients with neuromuscular diseases, critical patients in intensive care units

Art as a Channel and Embodiment of Symbolic Interaction Between Migrants and Non‐Migrants

open access: yesSymbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
Many non‐migrant politicians, journalists, and scholars in migrant‐ destination societies often represent migrants with self‐interested objectives and in specific instrumental ways based on stereotypes. Yet research on symbolic interaction reveals migrants are not passive victims.

Association between ribs shape and pulmonary function in patients with Osteogenesis Imperfecta

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Research, 2020
The aim of the present study was to test the hypothesis that ribs shape changes in patients with OI are more relevant for respiratory function than thoracic spine shape.
