Vibration based performance assessment of concrete-concrete composite bridges [PDF]
, 2009 Includes bibliographical references (leaves 142-148).Concrete composites consisting of precast pre-stressed standardized beams and a cast in-situ deck slab have been used for the construction of short to medium span bridges for the past four decades in ...

Accounting for animal health in efficiency analysis: An application to Swedish dairy farms
American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.Abstract Poor animal health is a central concern in modern livestock production. Despite the necessity to incorporate animal health in efficiency analysis, the theoretical and empirical developments are limited on this subject. This article appropriately characterizes the axiomatic properties of animal health within a production framework.

Experimental investigation on the moment-shear interaction in steel-concrete composite beams
, 2012 Current structural codes do not provide specific rules for the determination of the reduction in moment capacity of a composite beam when significant shear forces are present.

Behaviour and design of composite steel-concrete beams under combined actions
, 2006 This paper considers the study of composite steel-concrete beams under combined actions. The behaviour of these members in pure flexure, and under the combined action of flexure and shear is generally well understood. However, less well understood is the

Effect of strain profiles on the behavior of shear connectors for composite steel-concrete beams
, 2011 In composite steel-concrete construction applications, the behavior of the shear connectors is paramount to the overall system performance. The most common method for evaluating shear connector strength and its behavior is through the use of a push test.

Discovery of the Cyclic Form of MRI pH‐Sensor Z‐OMPD Enables >5% 13C Hyperpolarization by SABRE
Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.With “c‐OMPD”, we discovered a previously unknown 5‐membered lactol structure that arises from the homoaldol condensation of the central metabolite pyruvic acid. We demonstrate that the cyclization equilibrium is of crucial importance for OMPD's function as MRI‐based pH sensor and achieve for the first time 13C polarization levels (>5%) by SABRE in the
