Searching for more slender structures, economically viable and aesthetically appealing drove and innovation in the bridges. Prestressing, both internal and external, has been used on a large scale due to its efficiency; ...

The Nailed Box Beam structural efficiency is directly dependent of the flange-web joint behavior, which determines the partial composition of the section, as the displacement between elements reduces the effective rigidity ...

Mucosal bridges are rare laryngeal lesions probably of genetic origin. They may cause dysphonia of varying degrees, especially when associated with other laryngeal lesions such as vocal sulci and cysts. Reports on mucosal ...
