Kinematics‐based model for shear capacity assessment of unreinforced interior beam–column joints
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract This study presents a kinematics‐based model for assessing the shear strength of reinforced concrete interior beam–column joints without transverse reinforcement. The proposed framework is built on first principles—kinematics, equilibrium, and constitutive relations—and explicitly models discrete cracks by introducing kinematic parameters such

Effective axial strength of laterally strengthened RC pier heads with post‐tensioning method
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract This study investigates the structural performance enhancement of reinforced concrete (RC) pier heads laterally strengthened with unbonded post‐tensioning (PT) to accommodate increased design loads following a deck replacement of an existing railway bridge.

Anchorage performance of different punching shear reinforcement elements in cracked concrete
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Extensive research has been conducted on the bond and anchorage behavior of reinforcement elements in concrete. While many experimental studies have focused on uncracked concrete, the anchorage performance in the presence of cracks remains insufficiently understood.

Optimizing the embodied carbon of the product stage of reinforced concrete columns
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract The construction sector faces urgent sustainability challenges. This study quantifies the potential for reducing embodied carbon in reinforced concrete columns by optimizing concrete strength and reinforcement ratios. The interplay between concrete compressive strength (20–90 MPa), reinforcement percentages (0.2%–2.0%), and embodied carbon ...

Quantum State‐Resolved Photodissociation Dynamics Study of Transition‐Metal Carbonyl and Nitrosyl
The Chemical Record, EarlyView.State‐resolved scattering measurements provide experimental visualization of nuclear motions in reacting molecules. Carbonyls and nitrosyls are typical ligands in most of the transition‐metal complexes, which undergo dissociation upon visible and ultraviolet photoexcitation.
