Experimental results and modelling of corrosion-damaged concrete beams strengthened with externally-bonded composites حسب Elghazy M.

"…The FE models were able to capture the non-linear behavior of the strengthened beams. The interfacial bond stress-slip models at the fabric/matrix and composite/concrete interfaces and the number of composite layers had the most significant impact on the predicted response of the strengthened beams whereas the corrosion level, modeled as a reduction in the steel reinforcement cross-section, showed a slight effect on their performance. …"

Is It Time We Changed How We Measure Length of Stay for Hip and Knee Arthroplasty? حسب McCulloch, Robert

"…Patient length of stay (LOS) for lower limb arthroplasty is a frequently quoted outcome measure. However, the use of mean values in days is prone to being skewed by outliers. …"

Enhancing oil removal from water using ferric oxide nanoparticles doped carbon nanotubes adsorbents حسب Fard, Ahmad Kayvani

"…The loading of Fe2O3 nanoparticles on the negative surface of CNT decreases the negative sign and magnitude of the zeta potential by overcoming the repulsive effects of the electrical double layers to allow the finely sized oil droplets to form larger droplets through coalescence. …"

Insights Into the Role of CircRNAs: Biogenesis, Characterization, Functional, and Clinical Impact in Human Malignancies حسب Nisar, Sabah

"…Because of the structural stability, high expression, availability of microRNA (miRNA) binding sites and tissue-specific expression, circRNAs have become hot topic of research in RNA biology. Compared to the linear RNA, circRNAs are produced differentially by backsplicing exons or lariat introns from a pre-messenger RNA (mRNA) forming a covalently closed loop structure missing 3′ poly-(A) tail or 5′ cap, rendering them immune to exonuclease-mediated degradation. …"

Prediction of biogas production from chemically treated co-digested agricultural waste using artificial neural network حسب Almomani F.

"…An ANN model consists of three layers, 15 neutrons and 260 epochs accurately predict the CMP with 99.1% of data within ±10% deviation of the mean experimental value. The developed model can be used to forecast the CMP as a function of operating temperature, the substrate composition, and chemical dose, and can be used for scaling-up and cost analysis purposes.…"
