Dynamic response of phenolic resin and its carbon-nanotube composites to shock wave loading [PDF]
We investigate with nonreactive molecular dynamics simulations the dynamic response of phenolic resin and its carbon-nanotube (CNT) composites to shock wave compression. For phenolic resin, our simulations yield shock states in agreement with experiments

A Composite Steel Plate Shear Walls for Offshore Constructions
A new-type of weldable composite steel plate shear wall, which consists of a steel plate sandwiched by either of two or one composite panels at each side or at one side, has been proposed.

Shear Strength Prediction for SFRC Shear Wall with CFST Columns by Softened Strut and Tie Model
The steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) shear wall with concrete filled steel tube (CFST) columns is an innovative composite structure. In order to calculate the shear strength of SFRC shear wall with CFST columns, the softened strut and tie model ...

Structural performance of steel-concrete sandwich beams with carbon nanofiber reinforcement [PDF]
Cementitious materials such as concrete are typically characterised as quasi-brittle with low tensile strength and low strain capacity, which hence affect the long-term durability of the structure.

Studies on mechanical behavior of glass epoxy composites with induced defects and correlations with NDT characterization parameters [PDF]
Degradation in mechanical properties (compression, flexural and ILS) of glass epoxy composite laminates with induced defects (simulating delaminations) was studied. The defects were characterized by using the A-scan ultrasonic pulse-echo technique.

This study explores the mechanical performance of three auxetic structures, identifying a re‐entrant‐star hybrid as the most effective for impact absorption. Finite element simulations and experiments demonstrate significant gains in energy absorption and flexural strength after geometric optimization. This study investigates the mechanical performance

EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON THE SEISMIC BEHAVIOR OF A SHEAR WALL WITH CONCRETE-FILLED STEEL TUBULAR FRAMES AND SLITS [PDF]
This paper proposes a new type of composite shear wall with concrete-filled steel tubular frames and artificial vertical slits. The seismic behaviour of this new shear wall is studied by using a cyclic loading test.

Immediate performance of self-etching versus system adhesives with multiple light-activated restoratives [PDF]
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the performance of both single and double applications of (Adper Prompt L-Pop) self-etching dental adhesive, when used with three classes of light-activated restorative materials, in comparison to the
