Advances in microsurgical techniques and immunomodulatory protocols have contributed to the expansion of vascularized composite allotransplantation (VCA) with very encouraging immunological, functional, and cosmetic results. Rejection remains however a major hurdle that portends serious threats to recipients. Rejection features in VCA have been described in a number of studies, and an internati...

We have two forthcoming events that we would like to highlight this time. The first is this year’s Martin Holmdahl lecture that will take place on March 15 at 6.00 PM in the Rudbeck laboratory. The Lecture Hall will be announced at a later occasion. The speaker is Torsten E. Gordh and the title of his presentation “A walk on the Via Dolorosa”. This event is a joint project between Selanderska s...

Member Sections AMQP [1] advances business messaging interoperability within middleware, mobile, and Cloud-based environments. Emergency Interoperability [2] accelerates the development, adoption, application, and implementation of emergency interoperability and communications standards and related work. IDtrust [3] promotes greater understanding and adoption of standards-based identity and tru...

A total Lagrangian finite element FE model has been formulated for the nonlinear inelastic analysis of both composite beams and columns. An accurate rotation matrix is used in the position vector analysis and nonlinear strain derivations. The slip between the steel and concrete components due to the flexible shear connection at their interface is considered as an independent displacement in the...

An analog implementation of a deep machinelearning system for ef cient feature extraction is presented in this work. It features online unsupervised trainability and non-volatile oating-gate analog storage. It utilizes a massively parallel recon gurable current-mode analog architecture to realize ef cient computation, and leverages algorithm-level feedback to provide robustness to circuit imper...

To mitigate potential damage to RC structures subjected impact load—especially spalling damage—engineered cementitious composite (ECC) is applied, with the aim of reinforcing members, so as improve their performance. In present study, response beams, and without ECC reinforcement, loading was investigated. Firstly, mechanical properties were characterized by quasi-static compression tension tes...

The concrete-filled bimetallic tubular (CFBT) member studied in this paper comprises a stainless steel/carbon steel tube infilled with core concrete. It has the advantages of enhanced mechanical property, good corrosion resistance and cost effectiveness. A finite element analysis (FEA) model is established to investigate performance eccentrically compressed CFBT short columns circular cross-sec...
