QUANTITATIVE DESIGN METHODS FOR PROTECTION AGAINST CORROSION OF REINFORCED CONCRETE STRUCTURES DURING VARIOUS STAGES OF THEIR LIFE CYCLE

Quantitative Design Methods for Protection Against Corrosion of Reinforced Concrete Structures During Various Stages of their Life Cycle

There are large amounts of Koozies reinforced concrete structures that have undergone damage from corrosion at their operational stage.The Eurocodes and national standards do not contain any guidelines for designing primary protection and repair systems for reinforced concrete structures.Our research shows the economic feasibility of designing rein

Renal involvement in a patient with the chronic visceral subtype of acid sphingomyelinase deficiency resembles Fabry disease

Abstract Acid sphingomyelinase deficiency (ASMD) is a lysosomal storage disease (LSD) belt bag in which sphingomyelin accumulates due to deficient acid sphingomyelinase.In the chronic visceral subtype, organ manifestations are generally limited to the spleen, liver, and lungs.We report a male patient with the chronic visceral subtype who developed
