Early detection of corrosion activity in reinforced concrete slab by AE technique [PDF]
Chloride induced corrosion of steel reinforcement in concrete is the main cause of damage to concrete structures in marine, or structures exposed to de-icing salt environments.

Binding energy and electronic structure calculations are used to assess the ability of metal–organic framework (MOF)‐TiO2 composite materials to detect volatile organic compounds found in human breath. Electronic structure changes are measured by comparing density of states profiles using Wasserstein distances.

Abstract State‐sanctioned violence (SSV) has resounding effects on entire populations, and marginalized communities have long persisted in the work toward liberation despite continued SSV. This paper aims to bridge the gap between the vast scholarship on resilience and the practical challenge of sustaining and thriving in communities targeted by SSV ...

Flexural Performance of Cross-Laminated Bamboo (CLB) Slabs and CFRP Grid Composite CLB Slabs
In order to accord well with the requirements of sustainable development and green construction, a cross-laminated bamboo composed of an odd number of orthogonally oriented layers of bamboo scrimber is proposed in this paper.

A parametric study of the meso-scale modelling of concrete subjected to cyclic compression [PDF]
The present parametric study deals with the meso-scale modelling of concrete subjected to cyclic compression, which exhibits hysteresis loops during unloading and reloading. Concrete is idealised as a two-dimensional three-phase composite made of aggregates, mortar and interfacial transition zones (ITZs). The meso-scale modelling approach relies on the

Accurately predicting protein structure is of great significance in biological research. LightRoseTTA, a light‐weight deep graph network, to achieve prediction for proteins is presented. Notably, three highlights are possessed by LightRoseTTA: i) high‐accurate structure prediction for proteins; ii) high‐efficient training and inference; and iii) low ...
