Effect of Expansive Admixtures on the Shrinkage and Mechanical Properties of High-Performance Fiber-Reinforced Cement Composites by Won-Chang Choi, Hyun-Do Yun

“…Various replacement ratios (0%, 8%, 10%, 12%, and 14% by weight of cement) of CSA EXA are considered for the design of HPFRCC mixtures reinforced with 1.5% polyethylene (PE) fibers by volume. Mechanical properties, such as shrinkage compensation, compressive strength, flexural strength, and direct tensile strength, of the HPFRCC mixtures are examined. …”

Scattering amplitudes from Euclidean correlators: Haag-Ruelle theory and approximation formulae by Agostino Patella, Nazario Tantalo

“…Abstract In this work we provide a non-perturbative solution to the theoretical problem of extracting scattering amplitudes from Euclidean correlators in infinite volume. We work within the solid axiomatic framework of the Haag-Ruelle scattering theory and derive formulae which can be used to approximate scattering amplitudes arbitrarily well in terms of linear combinations of Euclidean correlators at discrete time separations. …”

Evaluation of Optimal Pore Size of (3-Aminopropyl)triethoxysilane Grafted MCM-41 for Improved CO2 Adsorption by Zhilin Liu, Yang Teng, Kai Zhang

“…The pore-expanded mesoporous MCM-41s showed relatively less structural regularity but significant increments of pore diameter (4.64 to 7.50 nm); the fraction of mesopore volume also illustrated an increase. The adsorption heat values were correlated with the order of the adsorption capacities for pore expanded MCM-41s. …”

Surgical management of a large maxillary non-odontogenic cyst using Le Fort I osteotomy: a short case report by Grzelczyk Lucie, Daurade Mathieu

“…Alternative approaches, such as cyst decompression, marsupialization, or endoscopy, were considered but ruled out due to the lesion's posterior position and volume. The osteotomy provided optimal access for complete enucleation while minimizing the risk of complications. …”
