Model of the Mechanical Behavior of Cementitious Matrices Reinforced with Nanomaterials by Victor D. Balopoulos, Nikolaos Archontas, Stavroula J. Pantazopoulou

“…Experimental evidence supports this concept; however, testing at the nanoscale may only be conducted through nanoindentation, which has a limited range only providing localized results that cannot be extrapolated to general stress states. To evaluate the restraining action of nanomaterials in the gel microstructure, a computational mechanistic model has been developed where the material phases (gel, nanotubes, and pores) are modeled explicitly allowing for natural randomness in their distribution and orientation. …”

Prediction of Seizure Outcome Using Combinations of Four Noninvasive Presurgical Modalities in Magnetic Resonance Imaging-negative Focal Intractable Epilepsy by Rofat ASKORO, Kota KAGAWA, Go SEYAMA, Akitake OKAMURA, Akira HASHIZUME, Tae ONARI, Yutaka HIROKAWA, Koji IIDA, Nobutaka HORIE

“…Nevertheless, localizing the source of epilepsy in magnetic resonance imaging-negative epilepsy cases presents significant challenges for clinicians. In this study, we evaluated the diagnostic efficacy and impact on the seizure outcome by using 4 noninvasive modalities, including scalp video electroencephalography, magnetoencephalography, fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography, and iomazenil single-photon emission computed tomography, in a cohort of patients with magnetic resonance imaging-negative focal epilepsy who underwent resective surgery. …”
