Understanding the Burden of Orofacial Involvement and Patient Treatment Preferences in Systemic Sclerosis: Results From a Large International Survey

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Orofacial manifestations are significantly impactful in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) yet remain understudied, with no dedicated clinical guidelines to inform their management. Methods An international online survey comprised38 questions addressing orofacial manifestations of SSc, including patients’ confidence in their treating ...

Study on the Road Performance of Recycled Asphalt Mixture with High RAP Percentage Based on Precision Separation Technology

Zhongwai Gonglu
The variability of recycled asphalt pavement (RAP) is one of the key factors limiting its high-content use in recycled asphalt mixtures (RAM). Although the RAP variability and clustering phenomenon can be effectively reduced by the precision separation ...

A Numerical–Experimental Approach for Multi‐Matrix Fiber‐Reinforced Plastics Characterization Using Finite Element Model Updating

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A numerical–experimental framework is developed for characterizing multi‐matrix fiber‐reinforced polymers (MM‐FRPs) combining epoxy and polyurethane matrices. Harmonic bending tests are integrated with finite element model updating (FEMU) to simultaneously identify elastic and viscoelastic material parameters.

Research on Performance Optimisation and Viscosity-Reduction Mechanisms of Warm-Mix Rubber Asphalt Pavement Materials in Cold and Arid Regions

Applied Sciences
In cold and arid regions, the durability of asphalt pavement materials is often inadequate, and the hot mixing process further accelerates pavement ageing and releases harmful gases.

Thermomechanical Fatigue and Creep–Fatigue Interaction of Inconel 718 Additively Manufactured by Laser Beam Powder Bed Fusion

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Thermomechanical fatigue tests of laser beam powder bed fusion (PBF‐LB) Inconel 718 show that the additively manufactured material reaches almost the lifetimes of conventionally‐rolled material under no‐dwell conditions. Introducing dwell times at the maximum temperature markedly reduces the lifetimes due to pronounced grain boundary sliding associated
