Chronic corticosterone aggravates behavioral and neuronal symptomatology in a mouse model of alpha-synuclein pathology

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Hilal Lashuel, Johannes Burtscher, Anass Chiki, João Pedro de Matos Rodrigues, Jean-Christophe Copin

Debilitating, yet underinvestigated nonmotor symptoms related to mood/emotion, such as depression, are common in Parkinson's disease. Here, we explore the role of depression and of the amygdala, a brain region robustly linked to mood/emotion, in synucleino ...

Durability of adhesively bonded joints between pultruded GFRP adherends under hygrothermal and natural ageing

Thomas Keller, Joào Pedro Girâo Meireles de Sousa

This paper presents an experimental and numerical study about the durability of adhesively bonded joints between pultruded glass fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP) adherends for civil engineering applications. Single lap joint (SLJ) specimens were manufacture ...

Multi-Modal Acute Stress Recognition Using Off-the-Shelf Wearable Devices

David Atienza Alonso, Amir Aminifar, Adriana Arza Valdes, Fabio Isidoro Tiberio Dell'Agnola, Victoriano Montesinos Canovas

Monitoring stress and, in general, emotions has attracted a lot of attention over the past few decades. Stress monitoring has many applications, including high-risk missions and surgical procedures as well as mental/emotional health monitoring. In this pap ...

Modeling of fatigue behavior based on interaction between time- and cyclic-dependent mechanical properties

Thomas Keller, Anastasios Vassilopoulos

A general constitutive equation was established using the theory of viscoelasticity in order to consider the interaction of the time- and cyclic-dependent mechanical properties of laminated composites. This equation was solved for two specific loading patt ...

Adaptation of waterborne echovirus to warm habitats enhances disinfection resistance

Tamar Kohn, Anna Carratala Ripolles, Virginie Bachmann

Because of their high mutation rate, enteric virus populations excreted from a host are not clonal, but rather consist of a mutant cloud with many different genetic variants. Among these variants, the susceptibility to environmental stressors (e.g., temper ...

The mechanics of crack-tip dislocation emission and twinning

Predrag Andric

Dislocation emission from a crack tip is a necessary mechanism for crack tip blunting and toughening. A material is intrinsically ductile under Mode I loading when the critical stress intensity

K_{Ie}

for dislocation emission is lower than the critical s ...

A new variational line tension model for accurate evaluation of the stress effect on cross-slip energy barrier in face-centered cubic metals

Xiao Zhou, Hui Liu

The present work developed a new variational line tension model (LTM) that accounts for contributions from the local line energy, long-range interaction among dislocation segments, and interplay between dissociated partials. This new LTM has been shown to ...

Atomistic modeling of fracture

William Curtin, Predrag Andric

Atomistic modeling of fracture is intended to illuminate the complex response of atoms in the very high stressed region just ahead of a sharp crack. Accurate modeling of the atomic scale fracture is crucial for describing the intrinsic nature of a material ...

Effects of spatial variation of cluster entry friction on hydraulic fracture propagation in multistage fracturing

Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion, Dmitry Nikolskiy

In this contribution, we explore different aspects of the multi-stage fracturing process such as stress interaction between growing hydraulic fractures, perforation and near-wellbore tortuosity effects as well as the wellbore flow dynamics using a fit-for- ...

Development of prestressed unbonded and bonded CFRP strengthening solutions for tensile metallic members

Alain Nussbaumer, Ardalan Hosseini, Masoud Motavalli, Elyas Ghafoori

In this study, a novel unbonded mechanical clamping system was developed for the strengthening of tensile metallic members using prestressed carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) plates. The system clamps a pair of prestressed CFRP reinforcement to a meta ...
