Dual potential capacity model for short and deep reinforced concrete members containing steel fibers

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study presents an analytical model for estimating the shear strength of short and deep steel fiber‐reinforced concrete (SFRC) members with a shear span‐to‐depth ratio less than 2.5. To this end, a dual potential capacity model (DPCM) is developed based on the demand‐capacity approach for evaluating the shear strength of SFRC beams that ...

An enhanced analytical model for predicting shear strength in reinforced concrete beams with corroded reinforcement

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper presents an analytical model to predict the shear strength of RC beams affected by corrosion within the Level IIb framework of fib Model Code 2020. Corrosion is accounted for by (i) reducing the area of longitudinal reinforcement, (ii) degrading the yield strength of stirrups according to Imperatore's law, and (iii) reducing the ...

Graph neural network‐based attack prediction for communication‐based train control systems

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs) have emerged as one of the key security challenges to industrial control systems. APTs are complex multi‐step attacks, and they are naturally diverse and complex. Therefore, it is important to comprehend the behaviour of APT attackers and anticipate the upcoming attack actions.

TCSR‐SQL: Towards Table Content‐Aware Text‐to‐SQL With Self‐Retrieval

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Large language model‐based (LLM‐based) text‐to‐SQL methods have achieved important progress in generating SQL queries for real‐world applications. When confronted with table content‐aware questions in real‐world scenarios, ambiguous data content keywords and nonexistent database schema column names within the question lead to the poor ...

A dedicated beamline for wide‐energy‐range X‐ray spectroscopy at SSRF: combining soft and hard X‐ray capabilities

Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.
A wide‐range beamline (130–10000 eV) combining both soft X‐ray and hard X‐ray photons has been constructed at SSRF for in situ X‐ray photoemission spectroscopy investigations of the solid–gas interface, and for hard X‐ray photoemission spectroscopy studies with layer‐by‐layer resolution.The advancement of renewable energy critically depends on the ...

Games and gamification projects in the Australian public sector

Australian Journal of Public Administration, EarlyView.
Abstract This article surveys the arrival of gameful government into Australian public sector practice. Gameful government is a shorthand, descriptive term denoting the interpenetration of (video)games, and design elements and thinking from them, into public sector work.

Winston Churchill and France: A Certain Ideal

History, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines relations between Winston Churchill and France. It argues that Churchill was sympathetic to France and, in particular, unusual among Englishmen of his generation in being sympathetic to its political system, but also that this sympathy did not make Churchill consistent in his relations with France.

Biodiversity research requires more motors in air, water and on land

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Human activities have accelerated species extinctions, driving rapid biodiversity decline. Simultaneously, advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and autonomous systems offer transformative potential for biodiversity research. Uncrewed vehicles—drones (aerial systems) and other robots (ground and underwater platforms)—equipped with high ...

Bridging the Late Antique Gap in Northwest Arabia: New Archaeological Evidence on the Occupation of Wādī al‐Qurā (al‐ʿUlā [AlUla], Saudi Arabia) Between the Third and Seventh Centuries CE

Arabian Archaeology and Epigraphy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In 2019, the Dadan Archaeological Project (CNRS/RCU/AFALULA) identified a Late Antique village 1 km south of ancient Dadan in the al‐ʿUlā valley (northwest Saudi Arabia). Three excavation seasons at this site (2021–2023) have uncovered a massive building constructed in the late third or early fourth cent.
