Delaying the Occurrence of Bar Buckling in RC Columns Confined with SRG Jacketing

Applied Sciences, 2023
This paper investigates experimentally the structural performance of substandard reinforced concrete (RC) short columns confined with steel-reinforced grout (SRG) jackets under monotonically increasing uniaxial compression.

Identification of senescence‐related genes in Parkinson's disease reveals candidate therapeutic targets and pathological processes

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
At the genomic level, a large number of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and aging‐related DEGs have been screened. Ten hub genes, such as IFNγ and IRF7, have been identified and shown potential value in the diagnosis of PD, holding promise as novel biomarkers to facilitate early and precise diagnosis.

A detailed redescription of a skeletally immature ‘Redondasaurus’ suggests ontogenetic transformations in the taxon mirror phytosaurian morphological evolution

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The study of morphological evolution is fundamentally tied to ontogeny, yet studies of these heterochronic processes in the fossil record are rare. Fossils belonging to an ontogenetic series are difficult to assign to an ontogenetic stage due to inconsistent proxies for skeletal ages, challenging to taxonomically assign due to morphological ...

Online Efficiency Optimization of a Switched Reluctance Generator in Single-Pulse Operating Mode

Energies
This paper proposes an online method for efficiency optimization of a switched reluctance generator (SRG) operating in single-pulse mode and connected to an asymmetric bridge converter. The optimal angles are defined as those that minimize total SRG loss

Towards a Socially Inclusive Circular Economy: Evidence From Social Enterprises in Low‐ and Middle‐Income Countries

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Circular economy (CE) and social entrepreneurship (SE) are increasingly recognised as critical pathways for sustainable development, yet CE research often underplays social inclusion, particularly in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs).

A Cyclic {NiII8DyIII4} Cluster Where the DyIII Moments Are Organized by the Transition Metal Spins

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
The synthesis, structural characterisation, and magnetic properties of a cyclic Ni8Dy4 coordination cluster are reported. Ab initio CASSCF and DFT calculations help rationalize the shape of the microSQUID hysteresis and the competing magnetic interactions within the compound. ABSTRACT A series of [Ni8Ln4(CO3)4(L)8(NO3)2(H2O)8 (MeOH)4](NO3)2 (Ln = Dy (1)

Segmentation of Extrapulmonary Tuberculosis Infection Using Modified Automatic Seeded Region Growing

Biological Procedures Online, 2009
In the image segmentation process of positron emission tomography combined with computed tomography (PET/CT) imaging, previous works used information in CT only for segmenting the image without utilizing the information that can be provided by PET.

Diversity and Inclusion Standards: Exploring Drivers and Determinants of Adoption of ISO 30415:2021 and UNI/PdR 125:2022 in Italian SMEs

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the adoption of Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) standards among Italian small and medium‐sized enterprises (SMEs), focusing on the international guideline ISO 30415:2021 and the national certification UNI/PdR 125:2022. Using survey data from 866 SMEs across six manufacturing and service industries and applying descriptive

Innovative Application of SRG for Strengthening Continuous RC Beams

Engineering Reports
This study investigates the effectiveness of steel‐reinforced grout (SRG) for strengthening continuous reinforced concrete (RC) beams. A more sustainable alternative to conventional cementitious mortars, geopolymer mortar was employed in SRG‐strengthened
