Ophiolites of Mariinsky complex at east and west frames of Revdinsky Massif

open access: yesЛитосфера, 2016
Fragments of the ophiolites of the Mariinsky complex of eastern and western framing of the Revdinskiy massif have been compared. At the eastern framing rocks of Mariinsky complex are main dolerites of sheeted dike complex, whch intruded basaltic pillow ...

Woody cover and geology as regional‐scale determinants of semi‐arid savanna stability

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Savannas are vital for global biodiversity and carbon storage, yet their responses to climate change and human activity remain uncertain. Using remote sensing time series and Bayesian Linear Models, we show that drought resistance and resilience vary regionally, shaped by complex interactions between geology, woody cover, fire regimes, past climate ...

Quantifying aboveground herbaceous biomass in grassy ecosystems: a comparison of field and high‐resolution UAV‐LiDAR approaches

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
The abundance of herbaceous vegetation in grassy ecosystems—which cover >25% of the world's land surface—is highly variable and impacts key ecological processes including carbon sequestration and support for grazing wildlife and livestock. Here, we present a method for using high‐resolution, UAV‐borne Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) to estimate ...

Influence of environmental conditions on the creep behavior of large‐scale concrete specimens

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract In this article, a testing campaign on large‐scale concrete specimens to study the influence of environmental conditions on their creep behavior for different member sizes is presented. This testing campaign is unique due to its specimen dimensions (cross‐sectional areas of up to 1 m2) and the continuous deformation measurements for over 6 ...

Innovative design and sensing performance of a novel large-strain sensor for prestressed FRP plates

open access: yesDevelopments in the Built Environment
Owing to the low measuring range of traditional fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors and the complexity, imprecision, and lack of practicality in existing large-strain sensors, this paper introduces a novel type of large-strain sensor based on pre ...

Experimental behavior of shear deficient RC beams strengthened with CFRP strips against reversible cyclic earthquake load

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study aims to prevent sudden and brittle shear failures in reinforced concrete beams, which are frequently caused by deficiencies in shear reinforcement. Following the Kahramanmaraş earthquakes in Turkey on February 6, 2023, inspections revealed that many reinforced concrete beams suffered severe damage due to design errors, high shear ...

Considering the existing stirrup location: The axial compressive behavior of partially carbon fiber‐reinforced‐wrapped square columns

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The behavior of partially carbon fiber‐reinforced polymer (CFRP)‐wrapped square columns under axial compression load has been investigated in this study. In order to understand the partially wrapped specimen behavior thoroughly, non‐wrapped and fully CFRP‐wrapped reference specimens were added to the study.
