Tests and Analyses to Study Monotonic and Cyclic Fracture Behavior of C‐Mn Steel
ABSTRACT The present study is aimed at experiments/analyses on monotonic and cyclic fracture behavior of C‐Mn steel at temperatures (T) varying from 28°C to 300°C. The fracture tests have been performed on standard compact tension specimens under different crack mouth opening displacement (CMOD) rates and load ratios (R: 0, −0.5, and −1) in a dynamic ...

Improved Tropical Cyclone Wind Estimation Using Dual‐Polarization C‐Band SAR and Machine Learning
Abstract Tropical cyclones (TCs) characterized by extreme wind speeds present severe hazards to human life and infrastructure. Spaceborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) has emerged as a critical observational tool for TCs, owing to its all‐weather, high‐resolution imaging capabilities.

Phase‐Field Fracture Simulation of Pressurized Concrete Microstructure
ABSTRACT Pressurized cracks in concrete have a significant impact on the safety and durability of concrete structures. The peak strength of concrete is reduced in the presence of pressurized cracks. However, conducting pressure‐coupled strength evaluation experiments requires extensive effort, and simulation tools can complement the time‐consuming and ...

Multiple Time‐Scale Homogenization of Coupled Corrosion‐Fatigue in Structural Concrete
ABSTRACT Reinforced concrete structures exposed to chloride‐rich environments and cyclic mechanical loading experience simultaneous corrosion of steel reinforcement and fatigue‐induced concrete cracking, leading to complex, nonlinear degradation that cannot be accurately captured by conventional sequential analyses.

Entanglement entropy of composite Fermi liquid states on the lattice: In support of the Widom formula [PDF]
Quantum phases characterized by surfaces of gapless excitations are known to violate the otherwise ubiquitous boundary law of entanglement entropy in the form of a multiplicative log correction: $S\sim L^{d-1} \log L$.

Strip loading in steel fiber reinforced concrete: Experimental and theoretical investigation
Abstract Fiber reinforced concrete is becoming increasingly popular in engineering practice due to its high robustness, post‐cracking behavior, and crack control. For strip loading, as common, for example, in longitudinal joints of tunnel lining segments, the use of fiber reinforced concrete has the potential to reduce conventional reinforcement ...
