Deflection‐based assessment of residual prestress in simply‐supported bridges accounting for creep variability

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Several test methods have been proposed in the literature for measuring the level of residual prestress, most of them involving either semi‐ or fully destructive techniques for local measurements which could be highly sensitive to boundary conditions and execution details.

Geopolymers as a Sustainable Chemical Platform: From Building Materials to Advanced Functional Applications

The Chemical Record, EarlyView.
Geopolymers are presented as a chemically programmable platform whose properties emerge from activation chemistry, nanoscale disorder, and interfacial design. The review highlights sustainability challenges, the shift toward nanoengineered and hybrid systems, and the rise of halloysite‐based architectures enabling tunable structures across scales for ...

Effects of complex soundscapes on the occurrence of Anaxipha pallidula in isolated green spaces in Tokyo

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Urban green spaces experience a mix of natural and anthropogenic noises, which could disrupt the vocal communication of several species. This study investigated how such complex soundscapes affect the occurrence of Anaxipha pallidula, which communicates through calls, focusing on both sound level and quality.

Stochastic analysis of continuously reinforced concrete pavements

, 2014
Los pavimentos de concreto con refuerzo continuo son pavimentos de concreto reforzados longitudinalmente con barras de acero y construidos sin el corte de juntas transversales de contracción. En este pavimento resulta importante controlar el espaciamiento de grietas, ancho de grietas y nivel de esfuerzos en el acero a manera que se mantengan dentro de ...

Brain‐Mimetic Mapless Navigation Framework Integrating Visual Streams and Entorhinal‐Hippocampal‐Prefrontal Circuits

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Efficient autonomous navigation in complex and unstructured environments without pre‐existing maps remains a significant challenge for mobile robotics. Drawing inspiration from rodent neural architectures, this study proposes a brain‐mimetic mapless navigation framework for mobile robots.

EMBODIED DATA/SUBALTERN DATAFICATION: Reimagining the Data‐Based City Through Quantified Lived Experience

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract This article outlines possibilities for counter configurations of data‐based urbanisms, whereby data practices, rather than reproducing logics of urban entrepreneurialism and smart‐city governance, are made from within urban peripheral territories.
