Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCyclic Instability of Shape-Memory Alloys in Seismic Isolation SystemsFilipe Amarante dos Santos, Corneliu Cismasiu, Francisco Braz FernandesShape-memory alloys are being progressively introduced as kernel components in seismic retrofitting devices for civil engineering structures. In order to control the instability associated with the first mechanical cycles, a training procedure is usually implemented, which stabilizes the superelastic behavior of the alloy. This paper addresses the characterization of the cyclic behavior of an austenitic NiTi alloy with emphasis on … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 7 Jan 2018 · 6,856 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBio-Inspired Materials: Exhibited Characteristics and Integration Degree in Bio-Printing OperationsAntreas KantarosIn the last decade, additive manufacturing techniques, commonly known under the term "3d printing" have seen constantly increasing use in various scientific fields. The nature of these fabrication techniques that operate under a layer-by-layer material deposition principle features several de facto advantages, compared to traditional manufacturing techniques. These advantages range from the precise attribution of pre-designed complex shapes to the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 29 Nov 2022 · 7,185 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNeuroprotective Effect against Cerebral Ischemia of Passiflora foetidaJintanaporn Wattanathorn, Natcha Sattroopinat, Terdthai Tong-Un et al.Problem statement: Although cerebral ischemia induced by stroke has been regarded as the important problem worldwide, the therapeutic efficacy is still inadequate. Since the free radicals are implicated in the pathophysiology of cerebral ischemia, the prophylactic protection against stroke with neuroprotective agent possessing antioxidant effect has gained much attention. Therefore, this study was designed to determine whether the alcoholic extract … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 16 Feb 2012 · 8,245 accessesView PDFCite
