Influence of post-cyclic loading on hemic peat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Construction on peat soils has proven to be a challenging task to civil engineers since this soil type has a significant issue that arises from common problems construction of roads, housing and embankment construction with regard to peat are stability,

Efficacy of a low‐carbohydrate diet combined with exercise on glycemic control and metabolic health in type 2 diabetes mellitus: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, Volume 28, Issue 3, Page 1934-1946, March 2026.
Abstract Aims This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of a low‐carbohydrate diet with exercise (LCD + EX) compared to a non‐carbohydrate‐restricted diet with exercise (NRD + EX) on glycemic control and other clinically relevant metabolic health outcomes in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

The use of cyclic triaxial tests in the characterization of portuguese UGM [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Coarse aggregate is widely used in the unbound granular layers (UGM) of roads, in particular as granular sub-base and base. However, although various studies have been conducted on these materials, their mechanical behaviour still has not been properly ...

The Effect of Graphene on the Fatigue Response and Failure Mechanism of Composite Materials: A Review

open access: yesFatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, Volume 49, Issue 3, Page 933-962, March 2026.
ABSTRACT This review investigates the influence of graphene on the fatigue performance of polymer‐based composites, focusing on both unreinforced matrices and fiber‐reinforced composite laminates. Graphene materials, including nanoplatelets, graphene oxide, and hybrid nanostructures, offer exceptional mechanical, electrical, and barrier properties that

Radiation Effects in Electret Organic Thin‐Film Transistors Due to High Flux and High Dose X‐Ray Irradiation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 8, 6 February 2026.
Electret‐style organic thin‐film transistors are evaluated for synchrotron X‐ray dosimetry at ultra‐high dose rates, showing promising performance and agreement with standard detectors. XPS and NEXAFS reveal radiation‐induced oxidation and Fermi level shifts in pentacene and polystyrene, correlating with reduced charge carrier mobility and providing ...

Memory of Stress History in Single and Two Surface Plasticity for Granular Soils

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 50, Issue 2, Page 597-612, 10 February 2026.
ABSTRACT Recent studies have identified limitations in Manzari and Dafalias' 1997 and 2004 sand plasticity models, particularly regarding one‐way unloading/reloading and ratcheting loading modes. These models are widely accepted as bounding surface models in the geotechnical engineering community; thus, concerns have arisen about a fundamental lack of ...

Bearing Capacity of Tension Steel Piles in Thinly Inter‐Layered Soils: Numerical Class‐A Prediction vs. Field Measurements

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 50, Issue 3, Page 1430-1450, 25 February 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the bearing capacity of tension piles and pile‐soil interaction during loading. Discrepancies between predicted and measured bearing capacities in previous tests motivated the study, where analytical methods showed considerable scatter and uncertainties in design.
