Behavior of arch composite beam: Experimental and numerical investigation by Abdelrahim Sabsabi, Oussama Baalbaki, Adnan Masri, Hassan Ghanem

“…Results demonstrated that external prestressing increased the ultimate moment capacity by 80 %, reduced mid-span deflection by 60 %, and significantly redistributed internal stresses, promoting a favorable arching effect. Furthermore, reducing the number of shear connectors by 50 % led to a 28 % reduction in stiffness and a 20 % increase in ductility, with negligible impact on ultimate load. …”

A cross-sectional study of how high-frequency hearing loss impacts cognitive functions in middle-aged-to-older adults by Dona M. P. Jayakody, Dona M. P. Jayakody, Dona M. P. Jayakody, Dona M. P. Jayakody, Paul McIlhiney, Paul McIlhiney, Inge Stegeman, Inge Stegeman, Robert H. Eikelboom, Robert H. Eikelboom, Robert H. Eikelboom, Robert H. Eikelboom

“…Audiometrically assessed better-ear, speech-frequency (0.5, 1, 2 & 4 kHz; BE4PTA) and high-frequency (6 & 8 kHz; BE2PTA) hearing loss were compared to cognitive functions measured using non-verbal tests from the Cambridge Neuropsychological Test Automated Battery; covariates included hearing-loss asymmetry, age, sex, premorbid IQ, and mental health measured with the short-form Depression Anxiety Stress Scales.ResultsWhile correlation analyses demonstrated that all measured cognitive faculties were associated with both BE4PTA and BE2PTA, hierarchical linear regression analyses demonstrated that only BE4PTA predicted cognitive flexibility and working-memory ability after controlling for covariates; age primarily accounted for BE2PTA’s cognitive effects.ConclusionWhile both speech and higher-frequency hearing loss were associated with poorer cognition, only the former demonstrated effects beyond those of ageing. …”
