Hippocampal volume and declarative memory function in combat-related PTSD

Marie Schaer

The proposition that declarative memory deficits are systematically related to smaller hippocampal Volume was tested in a relatively large sample (n = 95) of U.S. military veterans with and without combat-related posttraumatic stress disorder. This correla ...

ConMat'09 - 4th International Conference on Construction Materials

The purpose of this paper is to investigate experimentally the UHPFRC time-dependent behavior under sustained tensile loading and to determine the effect of the stress level on the creep response. Uniaxial tensile creep tests were performed at various stre ...

Right anterior cingulate cortical volume covaries with respiratory sinus arrythmia magnitude in combat veterans

Marie Schaer

Existing data suggest anterior cingulate cortex plays a role in autonomic regulation. In persons with posttraumatic stress disorder, autonomic regulation appears impaired, and smaller mean anterior cingulate cortex volume has been reported. This study exam ...

Effective Stress Concept in Unsaturated Soils: Clarification and Validation of an Unified Framework

Lyesse Laloui, Mathieu Nuth

The effective stress principle, conventionally applied in saturated soils, is reviewed for constitutive modelling purposes. The assumptions for the applicability of Terzaghi’s single effective stress are recalled and its advantages are inventoried. The pos ...

Fracture prediction during sawing of DC cast high strength aluminium alloy rolling slabs

Jean-Marie Drezet

The semicontinuous direct chill (DC) casting of large cross-section rolling sheet ingots of high strength aluminium alloys (2xxx and 7xxx series) gives birth to high residual (internal) stresses generated by a non-uniform cooling. These stresses must be re ...

Molecular dynamics modeling of cavity strengthening in irradiated iron

Seyed Masood Hafez Haghighat

One of the most important problems in the ﬁeld of nuclear industry is the relationship between irradiation-induced damage and the resulting induced mechanical response of the target metal and in particular ferritic base steels. In this work molecular dynam ...

On Development of Suitable Stress Fields for Structural Concrete

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz

Strut and tie models and stress fields are methods that can be used for the dimensioning and detailing of reinforced and prestressed concrete structures as well as for the check of existing ones. This paper presents an innovative approach towards the autom ...

Low stress acrylated hyperbranched polymers

Lars Schmidt

The objective of this study was to investigate the behavior of highly functional acrylates, during isothermal ultraviolet (UV) curing. The materials included a pentafunctional acrylate and two acrylated hyperbranched polymers, one with a stiff polyester co ...

Decreased anterior cingulate volume in combat-related PTSD

Marie Schaer

Background Neuroanatomical data point to functional relationships between the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) and subcortical centers regulating fear, in particular, the amygdala. Functional brain imaging has disclosed divergent patterns of ACC activation ...
