Experimental tests of some composite steel-concrete, wood-concrete and concrete-concrete elements

open access: yesInternational journal for engineering modelling, 2003
The paper presents the results of experimental tests of some composite steel-concrete, wood-concrete and concrete-concrete elements. Deflections at midspan under monolitically increasing static load were measured. The influence of different composite making means on the results was researched.

Concreteness and imageability

open access: yes, 1975
Previous research has shown that the positive effect of imageability upon recall is confined to abstract items. In Experiment I it was found that imageability would affect the recall of concrete items if subjects were instructed to use imagery in their ...

Bioinspired Mechanosensitive Organic Artificial Neuron With Programmable Excitatory and Inhibitory Responses via Nonlinear Mechano‐Electrochemical Coupling

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Organic artificial neurons couple mechanical deformation and ionic environments through nonlinear mechano‐electrochemical dynamics. Mechanical strain and electrolyte concentration reshape their nonlinear electrical characteristics, programming excitatory or inhibitory spiking responses that mimic mechanosensitive biological neurons and enable ...

Nonplanar Bouligand Architectures for Enhanced Mechanical Performance in Cementitious Composites

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Inspired by the impact region of the Mantis shrimp dactyl club, nonplanar additive manufacturing translates sinusoidal Bouligand architectures into cementitious composites. Printing‐induced anisotropy and architected interfaces promote distributed damage and arrest crack propagation, enhancing strength and energy absorption.

From Tiles to Worksheet: Exploring Concreteness Fading in Learning Vector Addition

open access: yesEducation Sciences
Teaching vector addition seems challenging in secondary-level mathematics education. Vector addition requires both geometric and algebraic understandings, and the overreliance on abstract representations causes students difficulties in learning this ...

Concreteness ratings for 62,000 English multiword expressions

open access: yes, 2023
Concreteness describes the degree to which a word's meaning is understood through perception and action. Many studies use the Brysbaert et al. (2014) concreteness ratings to investigate language processing and text analysis.

Efficient in‐Plane Exciton Transport in a Discontinuous Layered Lead‐Bromide Perovskite

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A new class of two‐dimensional lead‐bromide perovskite based on monovalent 4‐aminomethylbenzoic acid cations is presented, featuring a discontinuous inorganic layer. Despite the discontinuous lattice, transient photoluminescence microscopy demonstrates efficient though strongly anisotropic in‐plane exciton transport.

Eutectic Gallium‐Indium as a Potential Non‐Toxic Replacement in Mercury Intrusion Porosimetry

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A practical alternative to mercury intrusion porosimetry is presented using non‐oxidized eutectic gallium‐indium. An eGaIn Filling Station enables oxygen‐free preparation of standard penetrometers, and the resulting measurements faithfully reproduce pore‐size distributions and intrusion volumes measured with mercury across several standard reference ...

Detecting deceptive communication through linguistic concreteness

open access: yes, 2023
Several research lines attempted to tell truthful from deceptive texts by looking at the concreteness in language as an indicator of deception. We identified eight different operationalizations of concreteness for computer-automated analysis and ...
