Experimental study of the size effect on punching shear of steel fiber reinforced concrete slabs
Abstract As the behavior and design of steel fiber reinforced concrete slabs subjected to punching still remain an area of concern, the present work aims to provide a further contribution to the knowledge on punching behavior of slabs without transverse reinforcement.

LHCD during current ramp experiments on Alcator C-Mod
The lower hybrid current drive (LHCD) system on Alcator C-Mod is capable of sustaining fully non-inductive discharges for multiple current relaxation times (τcr ∼ 200 ms) at line averaged densities in the range of 5x1019 m-3.

Discovery of a keV-X-ray Excess in RX J1856.5--3754
RX J1856.5$-$3754 is the brightest and nearest ($\sim 120$ pc) source among thermally emitting isolated neutron stars. Its spectra observed with {\sl XMM-Newton} and {\sl Chandra} satellites are well-fitted with the two-temperature ($kT^\infty \sim$ 32 ...

Determination of the bilinear stress-crack opening curve for normal- and high-strength concrete [PDF]
An improved version of the method proposed to ACI committee 446 and to RILEM TC 187-SOC to determine the fracture parameters of concrete is applied in this study to several mixtures of normal and high-strength concretes.

Rubber Powder Enhancing Slip Resistance at Rock–Concrete Interfaces and Its Mechanism
This study investigates the enhancement of shear performance at rock–concrete interfaces using rubber powder‐modified concrete. Field experiments show that rubber powder significantly increases the shear friction coefficient and slip resistance while improving fracture toughness and stress distribution.
