Changes in rib cage geometry during childhood. [PDF]
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

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
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 ...

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

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