Extrapancreatic actions of incretin-based therapies on bone in diabetes mellitus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Diabetes mellitus is correlated with modifications in bone microarchitectural and mechanical strength, leading to increased bone fragility. The incretin hormones, with a classical effect to increase insulin secretion following food ingestion, are now

STEEL FIBER CURVATURE IN CONCRETE COMPOSITES: MODULUS PREDICTIONS USING EFFECTIVE STEEL FIBER PROPERTIES [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Applied Sciences, 2014
Results in the literature demonstrate that substantial improvements in the mechanical behavior of concrete have been attained through the addition of steel fibers as a reinforcing phase. We have developed a model combining finite element results and micromechanical methods to determine the effective reinforcing modu-lus of hook-ended steel fibers. This

Mechanical Properties and Development of Steel Fiber, Polypropylene Fiber and Steel-Polypropylene Fiber Concrete Structures

open access: yesHighlights in Science, Engineering and Technology, 2023
Fibre concrete is a commonly improved concrete. Compared with ordinary concrete, it has more excellent characteristics and has been widely used in engineering structures and other fields. This paper describes the mechanical properties of polypropylene fibres, steel fibres, and hybrid fibres (steel fibres and polypropylene fibres); it discusses the use ...

Corrosion effects on pullout behavior of hooked steel fibers in self-compacting concrete [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Fiber reinforced concrete structures are subjected to chloride and carbonation penetration that could initiate corrosion of steel fibers, with eventual pernicious consequences in terms of structural and durability performance.

Lightweight SFRC benefitting from a pre-soaking and internal curing process [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The presented research program is focused on the design of a structural lightweight fiber-reinforced concrete harnessing an internal curing process. Pre-soaked waste red ceramic fine aggregate and pre-soaked artificial clay expanded coarse aggregate were

Steel fiber/polyethylene terephtalate composites

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2021
Abstract Currently, lightweight materials with high performance have been strongly needed to meet the requirements of advanced structural materials. One of the promising lightweight materials is the metals fiber reinforced plastic composite, which usually gives good specific strength and high toughness.

Mechanical behavior of entangled fibers and entangled cross-linked fibers during compression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Entangled fibrous materials have been manufactured from different fibers: metallic fibers, glass fibers, and carbon fibers. Specimens have been produced with and without cross links between fibers. Cross-links have been achieved using epoxy spraying. The

Experimental Studies on Bond Performance of BFRP bars reinforced Coral Aggregate Concrete [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
As part of this study, has been developed a numerical method which allows to establish abacuses connecting the normal force with bending moment for a circular section and therefore to predict the rupture of this type of section.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...
