National Relics: Secular Sacrality, Museums, and Heritage‐Making in Nineteenth‐Century Chile
ABSTRACT This article examines how objects and bodily remains are transformed and ritualized into national relics through collecting and exhibiting practices in museums. Focusing on nineteenth‐century Chile, it draws on archival sources, material culture theory, and the anthropology of religion to argue that objects associated with Chile's nation‐state

3D non-linear finite element modeling of one-way RC slab strengthened with concrete overlay
Reinforced concrete (RC) slabs often require strengthening due to deterioration, increased loads, or design changes. Concrete overlay is a commonly used technique for strengthening, but predicting the behavior of overlays can be challenging.

Chloride Penetration Into LSDC (Iowa System) Resurfacing Mixes, MLR-77-05 and R-267, 1977 [PDF]
The purpose of this investigation was to determine the comparative effectiveness of standard D-57 concrete and Iowa system Low Slump Dense Concrete in preventing threshold levels of chloride from penetrating the concrete slabs to the reinforcing ...

ABSTRACT This article presents a capacity‐based assessment procedure for beam–column (b–c) joints of reinforced concrete frames with floor slabs and transverse beams. The procedure extends a previously proposed assessment methodology for determining the hierarchy of strengths and the sequence of events in symmetrically reinforced planar b–c joints.

ABSTRACT The rapid development of new railway networks and the aging of existing infrastructure in seismic‐prone regions continue to motivate the need for efficient methods to simulate the dynamic behavior of coupled train track structure systems. While detailed train–structure interaction (TSI) models can capture complex mechanisms, they are often too

My (post‐)post‐socialism: A personal photo essay
Abstract The paper is a multi‐modal, autoethnographic exploration of the visual remnants of lived post‐communism in a typical block of flats neighborhood of a Romanian city. By using film and digital photography, alongside narrative reflection, the author summons memories and blends observed and lived reality with creative non‐fiction to build an ...
