Chordoma is characterized clinicomorphologically and epidemiologically using own observations for 1955-1995 and literature data. Chordoma is a rare tumor. Its histogenetic association with the notochorda remnants and location in the region of axial skeleton results in a grave clinical course due to alteration of nervous structures of the brain and spinal cord. The diagnosis is based on roentgenological data showing the connection of the tumor with axial skeleton (in sacral-coccygeus and occipital-basilar regions in 90% of cases) and on typical histologic structure.

Acid rain can significantly undermine the structural integrity and seismic resilience of concrete structures, posing substantial risks of catastrophic failures and jeopardizing safety. However, studies on the seismic behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) columns affected by acid rain corrosion remain nascent. Therefore, this study explored the impact of acid-rain corrosion extent and axial compression ratio on the seismic behavior of RC columns that experienced flexural failure using an artificial rapid corrosion method and pseudo-static test in sequence.

Background: Chordoma is a rare bone cancer arising from the embryonic notochord with special predilection to the axial skeleton. The locally destructive nature and metastatic potential of chordomas can lead to devastating outcomes in terms of survival. The purpose of this study was to examine potential risk factors predictive of metastatic disease at presentation and prognostic factors in patients with metastasis.

Geopolymer concrete (GC) is green and environmentally friendly. In order to comprehensively study the mechanical properties and influence mechanism of geopolymer concrete-filled steel tubular (GCFST) columns under various working conditions, this study takes the strength grade of geopolymer concrete, length-diameter ratio and wall thickness of steel tube as design parameters. Eight GCFST columns are designed and the compressive performances are conducted under repeated axial compression.
