Glucagon‐Like Peptide‐1 Receptor Agonist‐Based Agents and Body Composition: Filling More Gaps

Obesity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The last 2 decades have seen historic advances in the treatment of obesity. We are entering an era of defining obesity not by weight‐based outcomes but by changes in body composition. Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1 RAs) are forming the platform for obesity treatments based on their high level of efficacy. Body composition can

Reducing Ammonia Emission during Food Waste Composting and Enhancing Compost Quality Using Different Additives

ChemistryOpen, EarlyView.
This research successfully reduces the ammonia emission by 45% and achieves good quality compost using additives (lactic acid or acetic acid) and bulking agents (mature compost or sawdust). The study supports Sustainable Development Goals 12 and 13 by promoting waste‐to‐resource option.

Multi‐level fatigue reliability assessment of reinforced concrete railway bridges

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper presents a multi‐level reliability framework for assessing the fatigue life of reinforced concrete (RC) railway trough bridges subjected to cyclic loading. The framework incorporates increasing levels of analytical complexity and real‐world data in four steps. First, an analytical model applies S–N curves and the Palmgren–Miner rule

Reduction in the Estimation Error in Load Inversion Problems: Application to an Aerostructure

Engineering Proceedings
The present work focuses on the inverse identification of loads acting on wing-like geometries, through strain measurements. These loads are considered quasi-static and considered acting at discrete stations across the span of the wing.
