Experimental Study on the Lateral Response of Large‐Scale Unbonded Steel‐Mesh‐Reinforced Rubber Bearings

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Conventional unbonded elastomeric bearings (ULNRs) are cost‐effective but prone to sliding during earthquakes due to their limited shear deformability. Unbonded Steel‐Mesh‐Reinforced Rubber Bearings (USRBs) offer a solution with increased deformation capacity.

Whole‐House Thermal Bridge Modelling for Accurate Retrofit Energy Prediction

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This study models thermal bridging in a UK semi‐detached house across pre‐ and post‐retrofit scenarios using piecemeal and whole‐house approaches with EWI and IWI. Whole‐house retrofits reduce heat transfer coefficient by 60%; findings demonstrate that default values are often unrepresentative and advocate tailored Ψ value databases.

Agreement between invasive and oscillometric blood pressure measurements during controlled haemorrhage in anaesthetised horses

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Defining the reliability of oscillometry (NIBP) for measuring mean arterial pressure (MAP) during normotension and hypovolaemic hypotension could help with cardiovascular monitoring and management in horses anaesthetised in dorsal recumbency.

Heel movement and foot biomechanics in aluminium nail‐on and indirect glue‐on fabric cuff shoes in horses

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Heel movement is critical to shock absorption and vascular perfusion of the equine digit. Conventional horseshoeing techniques are suspected to restrict natural hoof deformation, affecting hoof biomechanics. Several studies have explored the effects of shoeing on hoof function, though many have been limited to artificial conditions,

Experimental and Numerical Investigation of Cedar Façade Flame Spread With Respect to Sidewall

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In response to growing energy conservation and carbon neutrality efforts, façade systems incorporating wooden materials have attracted increasing attention, which in turn raises concerns about their combustibility. This study presents a combined experimental and numerical investigation of flame spread along cedar façades.

Charring Behaviour of Mass Timber: A Comparison of Thin Intumescent Coatings and Plasterboard

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study compares the charring behaviour of mass timber under varied heating conditions when protected by either different thin intumescent coating types or fire‐rated plasterboard layers. Bench‐scale fire experiments were conducted using the Heat‐Transfer Rate Inducing System (H‐TRIS).
