Concrete with a very high number of load cycles—Identification of stress levels for efficient investigation of fatigue behavior

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Fatigue stresses are receiving increasing attention in structural engineering, particularly in the design of increasingly slender structures. However, the mechanical response of concrete—particularly its fatigue behavior under very high numbers of load cycles—is still scarcely understood.

Flexural behavior of precast prestressed slabs with embedded building service systems

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Dry‐assembled precast concrete construction is rapidly spreading in many parts of the world due to the several advantages offered by industrialized construction. In order to speed up not only the assemblage of the structure, but also the full integrated building process, engineering systems (mechanical–electrical–plumbing) may be prefabricated

Deflection‐based assessment of residual prestress in simply‐supported bridges accounting for creep variability

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Several test methods have been proposed in the literature for measuring the level of residual prestress, most of them involving either semi‐ or fully destructive techniques for local measurements which could be highly sensitive to boundary conditions and execution details.

Bond, tension‐stiffening, and cracking in multi‐generational recycled aggregate concrete subjected to shrinkage strains

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The concrete industry is responsible for a significant portion of global waste production and multi‐generation recycled aggregate concrete (MGRAC) is a means to allow the sector to transition to a circular economy framework. To predict the behavior of MGRAC at the member level there is a need to understand the underlying mechanics of bond ...

Printing to Fight Antimicrobial Resistance Through Nano/Microstructured Platforms

The Chemical Record, EarlyView.
Additive manufacturing enables the rational design of structured antimicrobial platforms across multiple length scales, from nanofibrous scaffolds and droplet microreactors to 3D and 4D printed constructs. By engineering confinement, interfacial chemistry, and stimuli‐responsive release, these systems exert localized action through complementary ...
