Research on Dynamic Monitoring and Early Warning of the High-Rise Building Machine during the Climbing Stage

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2023
High-rise building machines (HBMs) are commonly used for the construction of super-high skyscrapers. Monitoring and early warning are critical to ensure the safety of giant HBMs during dynamic climbing.

A Non‐Reciprocal Architected Porous Medium

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In several fluid flow, energy‐dumping, and energy‐harvesting applications, a dominant flow direction or dominant resistance direction is desirable. In this study, we propose a simple modular geometry that doubles flow resistance in one direction relative to the opposite direction, while maintaining laminar viscous flow.

Innovative all composite multi-pultrusion truss system for stressed arch deployable shelters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Trusses are one of the successful structural forms that have been utilised, at extended scale, since the nineteen century. Fibre composite materials are relatively new to civil engineering applications. The increased interest in using composites in civil

Coagulative Granular Hydrogels with an Enzyme Catalyzed Fibrin Network for Endogenous Tissue Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Coagulative granular hydrogels are composed of packed thrombin‐functionalized microgels that catalyze the conversion of fibrinogen into a secondary fibrin network, filling the interstitial voids. This bio‐inspired approach stabilizes the biomaterial to match the robustness of bulk hydrogels without compromising injectability, mimicking the initial ...
