Sustainable structural design optimization - prestressed concrete beams by Ng, Kok Hang

“…The case study revealed that for an 18 m wide bridge, a 3-beam layout generates lesser overall EC than a 4-beam layout and a beam length (thus column spacing) of 20 to 26 m is likely to produce the lowest EC for the bridge system. …”

Shear strength of reinforced and prestressed concrete deep beams by Lu, Hai Yun.

“…The studies in this thesis mainly focus on the general behaviour, analysis and design in the shear strength of large reinforced and post-tensioned concrete deep beams. The influence of main steel ratio p, concrete strength fc', shear span-to-overall-height ratio a/h (or shear span-to-effective-depth ratio a/d), overall height h and prestress force on deep beams are investigated.…”

Enhanced rice (Oryza sativa L.) plant growth and nutrient contents during the vegetative stage through zinc solubilizing bacterial bead inoculation by Irsyad Sulaimi Ramly, Nur Maizatul Idayu Othman, Aida Soraya Shamsuddin, Tan, Ali Kee Zuan, Nor Hafizah Zakaria, Fadzilah Adibah Abdul Majid, Nur’ Amira Hamid

“…The effects of two ZSB strains, Acinetobacter nosocomialis (SR R-10) and Acinetobacter seifertii (SR-12) were evaluated in the present study on the rice plant growth and nutrient contents using the bead inoculation method. A completely randomized design (CRD) was employed and four treatments were applied: 1) non-inoculated (control), 2) SR R-10 strain, 3) SR R-12 strain, and 4) mixed inoculation of SR R-10 and SR R-12 strains. …”

Persistent elevation of intrathecal pro-inflammatory cytokines leads to multiple sclerosis-like cortical demyelination and neurodegeneration by James, Rachel E., Schalks, Renee, Browne, Eleanor, Eleftheriadou, Ioanna, Munoz, Carmen Picon, Mazarakis, Nicholas D., Reynolds, Richard

“…Our results suggest that persistent expression of TNF in the presence of IFNγ is a potent inducer of meningeal inflammation and can activate TNF signalling pathways in cortical cells leading to neuronal death and subpial demyelination and thus may contribute to clinical progression in MS.…”
