A damage-plasticity model for the dynamic failure of concrete

open access: yes, 2011
A constitutive model based on the combination of damage mechanics and plasticity is developed to analyse concrete structures subjected to dynamic loading. The aim is to obtain a model, which requires input parameters with clear physical meanings.

Multi‐Ion Doping Controlled CEI Formation in Structurally‐Stable High‐Energy Monoclinic‐Phase NASICON Cathodes for Sodium‐Ion Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract illustrates the synthesis pathway, morphological feature, and thermodynamic feasibility of entropy‐engineered NASICON cathodes for sodium‐ion batteries. Abstract Overcoming the energy density limitations of sodium‐ion batteries (NIBs) requires innovative strategies to optimize cathode materials.

Compression Behavior of Confined Columns with High-Volume Fly Ash Concrete

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2017
The use of fly ash in ordinary concrete provides practical benefits to concrete structures, such as a gain in long-term strength, reduced hydration heat, improved resistance to chloride, and enhanced workability. However, few studies with high-volume fly

Pressure-dependent flow behavior of Zr_(41.2)Ti_(13.8)Cu_(12.5)Ni_(10)Be_(22.5) bulk metallic glass [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
An experimental study of the inelastic deformation of bulk metallic glass Zr_(41.2)Ti_(13.8)Cu_(12.5)Ni_(10)Be_(22.5) under multiaxial compression using a confining sleeve technique is presented. In contrast to the catastrophic shear failure (brittle) in

Local Thermal Conductivity Patterning in Rotating Lattice Crystals of Anisotropic Sb2S3

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Microscale control of thermal conductivity in Sb2S3 is demonstrated via laser‐induced rotating lattice crystals. Thermal conductivity imaging reveals marked thermal transport anisotropy, with the c axis featuring amorphous‐like transport, whereas in‐plane directions (a, b) exhibit 3.5x and 1.7x larger thermal conductivity.

Compressive behaviour of FRP-confined rubber concrete

open access: yesConstruction and Building Materials, 2019
Abstract Extensive research has been conducted on the use of tyre-derived products (e.g. rubber crumb and granule) to replace aggregates in producing concrete (i.e. rubber concrete). However, rubber concrete has so far been mainly limited to non-structural applications due to its well-known disadvantages including the relatively low stiffness and ...

Reconfigurable Magnetic Soft Microrobot for Acoustically Triggered Targeted Bacterial Sterilization

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Reconfigurable magnetic soft microrobots integrate in situ‐grown piezoelectric zinc oxide nanorods that produce reactive oxygen species upon acoustic excitation. Combining magnetically guided transport with thermally induced planar reconfiguration, the microrobots achieve targeted delivery and enhanced bacterial sterilization through efficient on ...

The Confined Compressive Strength of Polycrystalline Ice [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 1982
AbstractTriaxial tests were carried out on randomly oriented, laboratory-made, polycrystalline ice, between strain-rates of 10–7and 10–1s–1and with confining pressures from 0.1 to 85 MN m–2, at –11 ± 1°C. Below strain-rates of about 10–5s–1the confining pressure has little effect, but at higher strain-rates the confining pressure prevents cracking ...

Multiple Twinning in Nacre and Aragonite

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Electron backscatter diffraction map of a cluster of geologic aragonite, exhibiting single, double, and triple twins. The whole cluster is approximately 2 cm wide. Colors indicate crystal orientations, so that pixels where the a‐, b‐, and c‐axis is perpendicular to the image plane are green, red, and blue, respectively.

Effect of van der Waals forces on the stacking of coronenes encapsulated in a single-wall carbon nanotube and many-body excitation spectrum

open access: yes, 2012
We investigate the geometry, stability, electronic structure and optical properties of C24H12 coronenes encapsulated in a single-wall (19,0) carbon nanotube.
