Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePreliminary Experimental and Finite-Element Numerical Assessment of the Structural Performance of SMA-Reinforced GFRP SystemsFilipe Amarante dos Santos, Chiara BedonIn this study, the feasibility and potentiality of a novel design concept is explored by means of small scale experimental tests and Finite-Element numerical simulation. Taking advantage of the intrinsic potentiality of Shape-Memory Alloys wires able to work as adaptive actuators when subjected to joule heating, a 'smart-GFRP' concept consisting in Glass-Fiber-Reinforced-Polymer (GFRP) structural members with a SMA reinforcement is … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 27 Sep 2016 · 8,289 accessesView PDFCite

El-Tayeb, B. F. Yousif, P. V. BrevernNowadays, there is an increase interest in polymeric composite materials for high-performance in many industrial applications. In other words, the tribo-studies on polymeric materials are growing fast to enhance the polymeric products such as bearings, seals, ring and bushes. The current work presents an attempt to study the correlation between the type of counterface material and frictional heating at the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2005 · 7,023 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNumerical Study on Coupling Beam Retrofitted Using CFRP and GFRP SheetsSaeideh Hakimi, Rahmat MadandoustOne of the most useful way to resist against earthquake is using coupling beam of steel shear walls. The steel shear wall’s behavior depends on several factors such as stiffness, ductility, strength and so on. But, it has the shear cracks in coupling beam. In this paper, the effect of Carbon Reinforced Fiber Polymer (CFRP) on coupling beams has been … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 6 Aug 2018 · 7,723 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPredictive Analysis of BMI and Liver Size on Kidney Function in Young Mexican American PopulationOrlando Patricio, Rohitha Goonatilake, Fernando G. Quintana et al.This study aimed todetermine the probability of fatty liver, hepatomegaly, and liver size ≥2SDwith age in each category of BMI percentile. It also aimed to investigate therelationship between GFR, BMI percentile, liver size, Blood Pressure (BP), andright kidney volume among overweight and obese boys and girls and to identifythe predictors of GFR. 763 records of boys and girls visiting a … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 9 Sep 2022 · 5,540 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRenal Actions of Neutral Endopeptidase Inhibition in Rats with Chronic Heart FailureAmr M. Abbas, Ayman Z. Elsamanoudy, Adel ZalataProblem statement: We aim to evaluate the effects of acute and chronic inhibition of Neutral EndoPeptidase (NEP), by ONO-9902, on plasma and renal NEP gene expression, hemodynamic and renal parameters in rats with Chronic Heart Failure (CHF) following left Coronary Artery Ligation (CAL). Approach: Forty eight male Sprague-Dawley rats (220-240 g) were divided into sham and CAL groups. Myocardial infarction … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 11 · 8 Nov 2010 · 7,087 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsGynaecologic NephrologyNaheed Ansari, Jolina Santos, Fuad Spath, Srujana PolsaniRenal issues are commonly encountered in females. They can occur both in pregnant and nonpregnant females. Many physiologic changes occur during pregnancy to accommodate the growing fetus. Pregnancy is characterized by changes in blood pressure and expansion of total body volume which results in high glomerular filtration rate. The common renal problems seen in pregnant females are hypertension, proteinuria with … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 4 Aug 2012 · 7,314 accessesView PDFCite
