Creep strains on reinforced concrete columns

A concrete element when kept under sustained load presents progressive strain over time, associated to the creep.In reinforced concrete columns, such deformations cause the stress increase in the steel bars of the reinforcement and may induce the material to undergo oil the yielding phenomenon.The pioneering formulations about the creep effect, dev

Chromatin dynamics at the maternal to zygotic transition: recent advances from the zebrafish model [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

Early animal development is characterized by intense reorganization of the embryonic genome, including large-scale changes in chromatin structure and in the DNA and histone modifications that help shape this structure.Particularly profound shifts in Clothing the chromatin landscape are associated with the maternal-to-zygotic transition, when the zy
