Shear capacity of reinforced concrete corbels using mechanism analysis

open access: yes, 2012
YesA mechanism analysis is developed to predict the shear capacity of reinforced concrete corbels. Based on shear failure observed in experimental tests, kinematically admissible failure mechanisms are idealised as an assemblage of two rigid blocks ...

Seasonal Dynamics of the Gut Microbiome in Urban Feral Pigeons Are Associated With Environmental Conditions, Not With Diet Shifts

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Using feral pigeons in urban environments, we show that microbiome diversity and composition vary seasonally despite stable diet composition. ABSTRACT Gut microbiomes play a crucial role in host physiology and seasonal adaptation. While seasonal shifts in avian gut microbiota are often attributed to seasonal diet variation, environmental factors may be

Modified prediction approach of strength of high strength polyolefin fiber reinforced concrete corbels

open access: yes, 2021
This paper aims to investigate the effect of polyolefin fibers on high strength reinforced concrete corbels using twelve specimens with different quantities of fibers and shear span-to-span ratios, all corbels were only tested vertically.

Strengths of Struts and Nodal Zones for Strut-and-Tie Model Design of Reinforced Concrete Corbels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The strut-and-tie model (STM) method is useful for the limit state design of reinforced concrete (RC) corbels. However, for the rational design of RC corbels, designers must accurately determine the strengths of concrete struts and nodal zones to check ...

Experimental Dataset From Full‐Scale Near‐Collapse Tests on Two‐Storey, Two‐Bay Masonry‐Infilled Reinforced Concrete Frames With Timber‐Based Reinforced Concrete‐Timber Panel Seismic Retrofit

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
This study describes a dataset from an experimental campaign investigating the quasi‐static cyclic lateral response of two full‐scale, two‐storey, two‐bay reinforced concrete (RC) frames with masonry infills representative of mid‐20th century European construction practice.

Individual variation in perceived density of conspecifics and its impacts on the realization of ecological niches

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.
Animals gather information about their surroundings, including their social environment, using a wide range of sensory modalities. Variation in reception, processing and interpretation of information (cues or signals) can lead to differences in how individuals perceive their local environment. Yet, how individual differences in environmental perception
