Measurement of Dynamic Soil Water Content Based on Electrochemical Capacitance Tomography

open access: yesInternational Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2012
In this study a new model for the relationship of normalized volumetric water content and relative permittivity relationship have been proposed. Electrical Capacitance Volume Tomography (ECVT) was applied to image soil water content during infiltration ...

Sub‐Nanometer Curvature Unlocks Quantum Orbital Flexoelectricity in Graphene

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
In self‐assembled, reproducible, large‐area, quasi‐pristine graphene nanowrinkles, extreme curvature forces out‐of‐plane π‐electrons toward hybridization, driving a transition from classical to quantum orbital flexoelectricity. As curvature approaches the fundamental physical limit set by the C─C bond length, the resulting polarization increases by ...

Application of Concrete Segment Panels for Reduction of Torsional Vibration Responses of Girder Bridges

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2015
The dynamic flexural behaviour of railway bridges is influenced by the torsional behaviour, and the flexural response tends to be amplified as the flexural natural frequency (the 1st vibrational mode) and torsional frequency (the 2nd vibrational mode ...

Advances in Structural Control in Civil Engineering in China [PDF]

open access: yesMathematical Problems in Engineering, 2010
In the recent years, much attention has been paid to the research and development of structural control techniques with particular emphasis on alleviation of wind and seismic responses of buildings and bridges in China. Structural control in civil engineering has been developed from the concept into a workable technology and applied into practical ...

Covalent Attachment of Quaternary Ammonium Group to Geopolymer Surface With Silane Coupling Agent to Enable Simultaneous Adsorption of Cations and Anions

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Modification of geopolymer surface with a silane coupling agent containing quaternary ammonium group enables the development of dual‐functioning ion exchanger for both cations and anions. In the present study, the performance of this material was demonstrated for the uptake of ammonium and nitrate from water.
