Experimental and design‐oriented research on fiber reinforced concrete segmental tunnel linings: A systematic review

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The use of fiber reinforced concrete (FRC) in precast tunnel segments is among the most established and representative applications of this material. Over the past two decades, numerous tunnel linings were constructed with partial or total substitution of conventional steel reinforcement by fibers, this yielding to quantifiable benefits in ...

Sensitivity study on accuracy and relevant parameters in numerical modeling of internal tendon breaks

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the numerical modeling of internal tendon breaks in prestressed concrete structures and evaluates the key parameters affecting accuracy. A combined approach is followed, involving global sensitivity analysis via the Elementary Effects Method and subsequent model calibration using experimental data from distributed fiber‐

Exploring the potential of Textile Reinforced Concrete for corrosion‐insensitive retaining walls

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract In a context where durability concerns, particularly the corrosion of steel reinforcement, remain a critical challenge for conventional reinforced concrete structures under severe exposure, Textile Reinforced Concrete (TRC) is emerging as a promising alternative.

Phase‐Controllable Synthesis and Property Modulation of Two‐Dimensional PAs3S3 Crystal

SusMat, EarlyView.
For the first time, phase‐controllable synthesis of 2D inorganic molecular crystals PAs3S3 are successfully realized by kinetics‐controlled vertical microspacing sublimation method. Due to the different arrangements of molecules, the two phases exhibit distinct SHG property, intermolecular forces, and Young's modulus of the R3m phase (21.31 GPa) is 69%

Delamination of Vermiculite into Ultrahigh‐Aspect‐Ratio Nanosheets

Zeitschrift für anorganische und allgemeine Chemie, EarlyView.
Efficient ion exchange allows for thermodynamically driven delamination of vermiculite into high‐aspect ratio nanosheets. The applicability of sustainable materials in the packaging industry is currently limited by the poor gas barrier performance of most biodegradable polymers.

Affinification: A Fine Approximation of Deformations

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We introduce affinification, a novel method for accelerating physics‐based animation of elastic solids. During a time‐dependent simulation, our method automatically partitions the space into affine and elastic regions depending on the deformation.

Mixed Super‐Circles

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We introduce mixed super‐circles, a position‐curvature formulation of the original dynamic 2D super‐helix model. Compared to the latter, purely curvature‐based model – the so‐called chained formulation –, the mixed formulation that we propose here drastically reduces the algorithmic complexity of the solving scheme – from quadratic to quasi ...

The Effect of Crown Height and Retentive Height of Abutment on the Fracture Resistance of Fatigued Monolithic Zirconia Anterior Implant Crowns—An In Vitro Study

Clinical Oral Implants Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives This laboratory study investigated the effect of two different retentive heights of Ti‐base abutments (3.5 and 5.5 mm) and crown heights (13 and 16 mm) on the load at failure and survival of monolithic zirconia implant‐supported crowns replacing a maxillary central incisor.

Impact of Anterior Lithium Disilicate Cantilever Resin‐Bonded Fixed Dental Prostheses on Oral Health‐Related Quality of Life and Esthetic Outcomes

Journal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the impact of lithium disilicate cantilever resin‐bonded fixed dental prostheses (RBFDPs) on oral health‐related quality of life (OHRQoL), patient satisfaction, and esthetic outcomes in patients with a missing maxillary incisor.

Technique for retrieving a locked implant‐supported bar overdenture following direct attachment pick‐up procedure

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Implant‐assisted complete dentures, particularly those utilizing implant‐supported bar systems (RP‐4), offer significant advantages in patient satisfaction and prosthetic function compared to conventional dentures. However, complications can arise during the direct intraoral pick‐up procedure, such as inadvertent resin polymerization in ...
