Spatial description of concrete characteristics [PDF]
, 2016 This work has the objective to simulate the variation of the compressive resistance strength of concrete along the height of a structural member. The concrete compressive strength is calculated with a formula, which has been previously analysed.

Liquids as Reinforcements for Anisotropic and Tough Soft Matter Composites
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Liquid metal droplets are shaped and oriented within soft elastomers to create all‐soft matter composites with programmable mechanical anisotropy. These liquid inclusions act as fiber‐like reinforcements, enabling directional stiffness, enhanced toughness, and controlled crack steering under extreme deformation, offering new routes to resilient soft ...

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Catalyst coordination acts as a loaded dice biasing reaction selectivity. Single‐atom site catalysts lock intermediates in exposed configurations, enabling continued hydrogenation and favoring oxygen‐retaining products. In contrast, extended metal surfaces fully coordinate and shield reactive centers, promoting deoxygenation pathways. This work reveals

Comparison of compressive strength in mud bricks with shred tires and concrete particles as sustainable materials [PDF]
, 2010 Mud bricks consist of clay, water and different materials. Comparing mud bricks to concrete blocks, an evolution in reducing the cost and also in increasing the compressive strength, can be made.

Cell Adhesion by Design: Engineering Tissue Culture Scaffolds With Adhesion Cues
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In scaffold‐based tissue engineering, the matrix should provide adequate adhesion cues for cell attachment, spreading, and function. Given the multitude of adhesion receptors and the diversity of scaffolds, there are many approaches to render scaffolds adhesive, even though they are not all equivalent.

Combined effects on residual strength of a high performance concrete exposed to fire [PDF]
, 2017 Concrete structures exposed to fire suffer from damage, but can remain a certain degree of residual strength. International research has shown that the compressive strength of concrete decreases not only with temperature, but also by the way of cooling ...
