Investigating the confinement effects on masonry behavior based on friction interface

open access: yesScientific Reports
As a material masonry is anisotropic in nature as it is constituted of various components that differ each other in many ways. Though, the ideas of modeling of concrete are also valid for masonry, still there are difficulties in determining the exact ...

Straight Joint Shear Performance Test of Urban Sludge Sintered Shale Bricks

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2015
In the actual engineering design, it is too conservative for the calculation results for the urban sludge sintered shale brick to use the shear strength formula in the Design Specifications of Masonry Structure. To more effectively calculate this formula,

Evaluation of the behavior of brick tile masonry and mortar due to capillary rise of moisture

open access: yesMateriales de Construccion, 2014
For a better understanding of the behaviour of old brick masonry in facing the rising damp problem, multiple tests were made in the laboratory: water absorption, moisture content, apparent porosity, temperature and thermal camera imaging on brick masonry

Upcycling High Impact Polystyrene Post‐Consumer E‐Waste Into Composites by Thiocracking

open access: yesMacromolecular Chemistry and Physics, Volume 227, Issue 18, 29 September 2026.
A high sulfur composite (HSM) series was prepared from HIPS waste feedstock through its reaction with elemental sulfur, yielding remeltable solids with a modified thermal and mechanical properties. The resulting materials show evidence of organic comonomer incorporation, demonstrating a route for valorization of plastic waste into sulfur‐based material

Wind Turbine Blade Crack Detection and Assessment in Images Using Machine Learning

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT As the wind energy industry matures, inspection of wind turbine blades (WTBs) is shifting from a manual process involving rope access and grading of damage, towards unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) photography and artificial intelligence‐aided processing of data.

Nonlinear Finite Analysis of Structural Behavior of Brick Masonry-Infilled Reinforced Concrete Frames

open access: yesJournal of the Civil Engineering Forum
Earthquake disasters are one source of disaster that often causes buildings to experience total collapse or partial damage so that the structure may no longer be usable. Brick masonry wall construction, both unreinforced and reinforced masonry walls, is
