Assessing Delayed Collapse Risks in Load-Bearing Reinforced Concrete Walls Exposed to Parametric Fires: A Numerical Investigation by Guergah Cherif, Baghdadi Mohamed, Dimia Mohamed Salah, Antonio Marcos de Oliveira Siqueira, Júlio César Costa Campos

“… This study delves into the thermo-mechanical analysis of structures exposed to fire, focusing on the evolution of gas temperatures, thermal distribution in structural members, and mechanical behavior during fire scenarios. Traditional prescriptive approaches assume a monotonically increasing temperature, while contemporary performance-based designs incorporate both heating and cooling phases for a more realistic fire resistance assessment. …”

Opioidergic tuning of social attachment: reciprocal relationship between social deprivation and opioid abuse by Julia A. Galiza Soares, Samantha N. Sutley-Koury, Matthew B. Pomrenze, Matthew B. Pomrenze, Jason M. Tucciarone

“…This review addresses the apparent bidirectional causal relationship between social deprivation and opioid addiction susceptibility, investigating the role of opioid transmission in attachment bond formation and prosocial behavior. We propose that early social deprivation disrupts the neurobiological substrates associated with opioid transmission, leading to deficits in social attachment and reinforcing addictive behaviors. …”
