Effects of Loading Conditions and Stirrup Arrangement on Corrosion-Induced Expansion Strain and Cracking in Reinforced Concrete Beams

Buildings
To investigate the effects of loading type and stirrup arrangement on the corrosion and deterioration characteristics of reinforced concrete beams, constant current accelerated corrosion tests were conducted under no load, uniaxial compressive load, and ...

Eco‐Friendly Synthesis of Cobalt Phthalocyanine for High‐Efficiency CO2${\rm CO}_{2}$ Electroreduction

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
A sustainable synthesis of cobalt phthalocyanine (CoPc) using low‐impact solvents yields high‐performance electrocatalysts with reduced waste (E‐factor 18.6). When integrated into gas diffusion electrodes, CoPc achieves up to 12% Faradays efficiency for CO2‐to‐methanol and 65% CO2‐to‐CO conversion, aligning with state‐of‐the‐art materials and enabling ...

Critical expansion points: Mechanical signs of surrounding rock instability

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study proposes the Rock Bearing‐Expansion Model (RockBEM) with critical expansion points (CEPs) to quantify post‐peak damage stages in deep‐buried rock masses via plane strain compression test (PSCT). CEP hysteresis&interval ratios reveal bearing performance dynamics and failure severity, advancing mechanistic insights into deep underground rock ...

Advancing mine pillar design: Evaluating traditional methods and integrating AI for enhanced stability of pillars in the Great Dyke, Zimbabwe

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
B1 is bord width 1, B2 is bord width 2, L is the pillar length, W is the pillar width, red color and letter A represent the pillars, and white color and number 1 represent excavated areas. Pstress is the average pillar stress; σv is the vertical component of the virgin stress, MPa; and e is the areal extraction ratio. e = B o B o + B P ${\rm{e}}=\frac{{

Experimental response of RC columns built with plain bars under unidirectional cyclic loading [PDF]

, 2012
A large number of existing reinforced concrete (RC) buildings structures were designed and built before mid-70’s, when the reinforcing bars had plain surface and prior to the enforcement of the modern seismic-oriented design philosophies.

Strain and Band Modulation of WO3/SnSe Micro‐Nano Composites Achieving Superior Photocatalytic Performance

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
WO3/SnSe micro‐nano composites demonstrate exceptional photocatalytic performance through synergistic strain and band modulation. Lattice strain modulation enhances methyl orange adsorption and visible light absorption, while Z‐scheme band alignment promotes efficient charge separation. The 2.5% WO3/SnSe composite achieves 99.71% degradation efficiency,
