Numerical Simulation of Dynamic Characteristics of Dam Concrete Based on Fuzzy Set by Fang Jianyin, Liu Ke, Dang Faning, Li Shutian

“…The results show that the concrete numerical calculation model of structural random is very close to the actual mesostructure of concrete, and the interface thickness between aggregate and hardened cement is very close to the actual interface thickness (which is 40~50 μm). Under the action of dynamic load, the damage of the sample is mainly concentrated in the upper part of the sample, and the damage is easy to occur at the initial defect place, and the damage occurs at multiple points at the same time. …”

A case study on risk assessment and novel anchoring technology for potential collapse of high and steep giant dangerous rock mass by Zhang Yufang, Cui Jian, Yuan Kun, Liu Bo, Li Jian, Fan Jiawei, Liu Mengjia

“…Because of the huge size of the dangerous rock mass, the cracks behind the upper part of it are all penetrated; the overturning moment is 500,033.29kN·m, and the safety factor is only 0.744 under the most unfavorable working condition in terms of seismic action. Once the dangerous rock body collapses, most of the rockfalls occur near the tunnel portal and the railway bridge with large velocity and high kinetic energy and jump height. …”

Therapy of Inflammatory Bowel Disease using New 5-ASA Compounds: An Introduction by Ulrich Klotz

“…Since the active metabolite avoids the toxic potential of sulphapyridine, this perception has initiated new therapeutic approaches, for example, two 5-ASA molecules have been coupled to form another prodrug (olsalazine) which again depends on a proper cleavage of the azobond by bacteria in the colon A more direct way has been applied successfully by administering 5-ASA itself in special galenic formulation (suppositories, enemas, controlled release preparations) to provide enough active material at the proposed sites of action in the terminal ileum and/or colon. One major advantage of all 5-ASA compounds, compared to sulphasalazine, is their 10-fold lower potential (incidence) for inducing allergic reactions or causing intolerance. …”
