National Policy Coherence Counts for Reducing Inequality in Global Climate and Development Agendas
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT International institutions promote policy coherence as crucial to the effective and fair implementation of global sustainability agendas, though the evidence for its benefits is slim. We present here the first systematic cross‐country dataset on the consequences of national government efforts to promote policy coherence for vulnerable groups ...

Seismic response of concrete gravity dam reinforced with FRP sheets on dam surface
Water Science and Engineering, 2013 This paper aims at exploring the effects of anti-seismic reinforcement with the fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) material bonded to the dam surface in dam engineering. Time-history analysis was performed to simulate the seismic failure process of a gravity

Concrete in architecture: Redefining form, space, function, and insights from bibliometric analysis
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Concrete has become a cornerstone in architectural and engineering innovation, as it seamlessly integrates structural performance with artistic expression. Its evolution from ancient opus caementicium to contemporary ultra‐high‐performance concrete illustrates its adaptability to the change in technological, environmental, and design paradigms.
