Analysis of the cohesion/adhesion proportion around bitumen-mineral failure interface under tensile loading

The occurrence of cohesive/adhesive hybrid failure at the bitumen-aggregate interface is widely acknowledged, however, the quantitative evaluation of the cohesion/adhesion proportion is relatively weak. This study explored cohesive/adhesive hybrid failure and provided a quantitative analysis of the proportion between cohesion and adhesion....

Left ventricular thrombus after acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction: Multi-parametric cardiac magnetic resonance imaging with long-term outcomes

Left ventricular thrombus (LVT) after acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) are generally associated with poorer outcomes for patients at long-term follow-up. We hypothesis that tissue characteristics and strain parameters by cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging may indicate the interactions of LVT with ventricular...
