Investigation of soil arching evolution in piled embankments with three-dimensional trapdoor tests
This study focused on the mobilisation and degradation of three-dimensional soil arching by adopting a matrix trapdoor test device with 144 individually and electrically controlled movable plates to simulate unreinforced piled embankments at different coverage ratios and fill hei...

Post-processing of 3D-scanned welds for a structural simulation-based fatigue life prediction
Abstract The fatigue life of welded components can be assessed using finite element simulations and fatigue damage parameters. The underlying models are often based on idealized weld geometries, although the real-world geometry of hand-welded seams can deviate substantially from...

Beyond No Alternative: IMF Asymmetrical Adjustment and African Resistance in the 1980s
This article examines how the International Monetary Fund’s (IMF) asymmetrical approach to structural adjustment in Africa became entrenched during the financial turbulence of the 1980s. Drawing upon unpublished IMF Central Files – including Executive Board minutes, internal corr...

Fluorine-Modulated Reactivity Enables One-Pot Kinetic Sequence Programming of Block Copolyesters
Monomer sequence strongly influences copolymer properties, but direct block formation from a monomer mixture requires a large reactivity contrast. Here, fluorination was used to regulate anhydride reactivity in the cesium pivalate-catalyzed ring-opening alternating copolymerizati...

Echinococcosis, a zoonotic infection caused by Echinococcus granulosus , is a parasitic disease that primarily affects the liver and lungs. However, it can also involve other organs, including the head and neck, although this is extremely rare. We report the case of a 19-year-old...

TLR2 mediates cell cycle re-entry and survival of neonatal cardiomyocytes in response to injury
Abstract Unlike adult hearts, neonatal hearts can regenerate and adapt to stress. To identify both cardioprotective and regenerative mechanisms, we compared activated genes and related signaling pathways in the neonatal mouse heart after myocardial infarction (MI) and after expos...

A Gradient-CorrectedPolarizable Continuum Model forImproved Reaction Fields at the SCF Level
Abstract We propose an improved model, termed the gradient-corrected PCM (GCPCM), for improving the energy accuracy of the polarizable continuum model (PCM). Our previous study revealed deficiencies of PCM in describing the reaction field, i.e., the electrostatic potential genera...

Diagnostic significance of ilioinguinal nodal uptake percentages in lower limb lymphoscintigraphy
PURPOSE: This study investigated the significance of ilioinguinal nodal uptake percentages in the evaluation of lower limb lymphoscintigraphy. METHODS: Lymphoscintigraphy studies from 161 patients were retrospectively evaluated. Region-of-interest counts from the injection sites...
