Beyond Surface Modulus: Shape-Aware Crack-Index Assessment of Mass Concrete Foundations Under Early-Age Thermal Stress

Abstract Early-age thermal cracking is a major serviceability and durability concern in mass-concrete foundations, especially under hot-weather construction conditions. Although surface modulus is widely used as a massivity descriptor, its ability to predict stress-based cracking...

Intraspecies genetic diversity and host-associated distribution of Endolimax nana in Sumba Island, Indonesia

Endolimax nana is a common intestinal archamoebid within Evosea (Amoebozoa), alongside genera such as Entamoeba , Iodamoeba , and Mastigamoeba . Despite its frequent colonization of humans, it has received limited attention as a presumed non-pathogenic commensal, and its genetic...
