Demountable Friction Beam-to-Column Shear Connections: Concept, Design and FE Modelling

Buildings
This study proposes a novel friction-based beam-to-column shear connection designed to behave as a nominally pinned joint while avoiding any perforation of the connected members.

ADAPTABLE AND REUSABLE DOUBLE‐SIDED BEAM‐TO‐BEAM STEEL JOINT

ce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 1, Page 364-373, April 2026.
Abstract With growing demands for sustainability and circularity in the construction sector, enhancing the reusability of steel components has become a key priority. The European CONNECT4C project addresses this challenge by developing innovative, adaptable steel components that enable flexible and reusable structural systems.

Cyclic Response Characteristics of SCC Extended End-Plate Reduced Web Section (RWS) Connections

Buildings
This study investigates the cyclic behaviour of demountable steel–concrete composite extended end-plate reduced web section (RWS) connections for the first time, aiming to facilitate post-seismic beam replacement. A validated high-fidelity finite element

Experimental analysis of bolted connections for precast concrete walls under cyclic tensile loading

Structural Concrete, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 2309-2327, April 2026.
Abstract Dry‐bolted connections in precast wall structures simplify the assembly process and offer significant advantages in terms of construction speed and cost. In fact, the reduction of the required workmanship, compared to wet connections, makes this solution highly competitive.

Operando Spectroscopy and Kinetic Modelling Reveal Dynamic Catalyst Species During Auto‐Oxidation of a Palladium Phosphine System

ChemCatChem, Volume 18, Issue 3, 12 February 2026.
ABSTRACT Ligand oxidation is a reoccurring catalyst deactivation mechanism in catalytic systems containing phosphine ligands. Here we report the use of operando FTIR spectroscopy for the investigation of the aerobic oxidation of the common Pd‐triphenylphosphine catalytic system using [Pd(OAc)2] and [Pd(PPh3)4] as precursors.

Computational Design and Glycoengineering of Interferon‐Lambda for Nasal Prophylaxis Against Respiratory Viruses

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 6, 30 January 2026.
This study presents an engineered human interferon‐lambda (hIFN‐λ) as an intranasal prophylactic against respiratory viruses. By combining AI‐guided backbone redesign and glycoengineering, the authors developed a thermostable, protease‐resistant, and scalable variant with improved mucosal penetration.

Comparative Upconversion of Tm, Yb‐Doped YF3, YOF, and Y2O3 Hosts

physica status solidi (a), Volume 223, Issue 2, January 2026.
This study aims to determine which host material—among YF3, YOF, and Y2O3—produces the strongest blue upconversion emission from Tm3+ ions after exciting the Yb3+ ions with an infrared diode laser at 980 nm. Powder of the mixed oxyfluoride phase was used to demonstrate forensic fingerprint detection with blue upconversion light, since it exhibits the ...

The history of anatomical engagement

Anatomical Sciences Education, Volume 18, Issue 12, Page 1337-1348, December 2025.
Abstract The public's fascination with anatomy has evolved over time and progressed from avoidance of the tainted yet saintly corpse, to their fascination with cabinets of curiosities. The current narrative review explores public engagement (PE), from its potential origins as cave paintings, to the rise of the disciplinarity of anatomy.

Analysis of Screwed Electrical Connections for HTS Tapes

Energies
A demountable connection is necessary to enable quick and easy replacement of high-temperature superconducting (HTS) tape samples during cryogenic (77 K) testing, particularly when investigating their application in superconducting fault current limiters
