Role of Fatigue and Creep in Structural Damage: A Comprehensive Review
Abstract: Fatigue and creep are two critical degradation mechanisms that significantly influence the structural integrity and longevity of engineering materials. These phenomena arise due to different loading and environmental conditions but often coexist in various industrial applications, leading to severe material degradation over time. Fatigue primarily results from cyclic loading, where repeated stress variations induce microstructural damage and crack initiation, ultimately causing catastrophic failure. Conversely, creep occurs under sustained stress at …

Cellular Mechanisms of Autophagy in Carcinogenesis: A Narrative Review
Abstract: Autophagy is a highly conserved lysosomal degradation pathway essential for cellular homeostasis, metabolic adaptation, and survival under stress. In the context of carcinogenesis, autophagy exhibits a paradoxical and stage-dependent role. During early tumor development, autophagy acts as a tumor-suppressive mechanism by limiting genomic instability, oxidative stress, and chronic inflammation. Conversely, in established malignancies, cancer cells exploit autophagy to sustain growth, survive hostile tumor microenvironments, and resist anticancer therapies. Increasing evidence …

Secure Forge: Deepfake Image Detection Using Vision Transformers
Abstract: Deepfake technologies have become a major risk to the credibility and trustworthiness of digital visual information. Using powerful generative models like GANs and autoencoders, deepfakes can generate highly realistic fake videos and images, resulting in misinformation, identity theft, and public loss of trust in digital media. Classic Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) while being highly effective in initial-stage, deepfake detection tend to be limited by their local receptive fields and dependency …

Construction Sequence Analysis of High-Rise Structure with Creep and Shrinkage Effect
Abstract: This study deals with a time-dependent analysis of reinforced concrete G+40 RC frame structures considering the construction sequence with the effect of creep and shrinkage analysis. Because of the non-mechanical deformations induced by the time-dependent deformations of concrete, concrete structures usually present different behaviors when the construction sequences are changed, despite having the same structural configurations. Therefore, the time-dependent effects of concrete such as creep and shrinkage must be taken …
