Mathematical extraction equation of horizontal shear transfer in interface between two concrete members

open access: yesAl-Qadisiyah Journal for Engineering Science, 2016
Shear is transferred through interface between two concrete members by two mechanisms either by aggregate interlock or by dowel action or by both in the same time.

Performance of doubly reinforced concrete beams with GFRP bars

open access: yesJournal of the Mechanical Behavior of Materials
The study focused on examining the behavior of six concrete beams that were reinforced with glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars to evaluate their performance in terms of their load-carrying capacity, deflection, and other mechanical properties ...

Answering “When Am I Ever Gonna Use This Again? Where Does This Come Up in the Real World?” Examining the Influence of University‐Community College Partnerships on Preservice Mathematics and Science Teachers and Faculty

open access: yesSchool Science and Mathematics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigated a research‐practice partnership (RPP) between a community college and university teacher preparation program that aimed to prepare secondary mathematics and science teachers to connect disciplinary content to authentic real‐world applications within their future high school classrooms.

Practical evaluation of the influence of the position of dowels in expansion joints on the risk of failure of Portland cement concrete pavements

open access: yesRoads and Bridges
Cement concrete pavements are mainly implemented in Poland using unreinforced, dowelled and tieded pavement technology. The task of dowels in transverse expansion joints is to ensure proper transfer of loads between slabs and to allow free operation of ...

Sustainable and Seismically Resilient Confined Masonry: Global Progress in Research and Design Practice

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 4, November 2026.
Modern confined masonry (CM) construction consists of masonry walls confined by reinforced concrete (RC) tie‐columns and tie‐beams. When built correctly, CM buildings have shown good performance in earthquake's shaking. Even though CM construction has been practised for almost a century in some Latin American countries, its use and standardisation are ...

Seismic Performance and Vibration‐Based Damage Identification of Two‐Storey Balloon‐Framed CLT Shear Walls

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 12, Page 3052-3073, 10 October 2026.
ABSTRACT While cross‐laminated timber (CLT) is increasingly utilized in lateral force‐resisting systems in mass timber construction, research has predominantly focused on platform‐type construction. Balloon‐type CLT shear wall systems offer distinct structural advantages, notably the elimination of cumulative perpendicular‐to‐grain compression and a ...

Material and geometric nonlinear analysis of reinforced concrete frame structures considering the influence of shear strength complementary mechanisms

open access: yesLatin American Journal of Solids and Structures
A mechanical model for the analysis of reinforced concrete frame structures based on the Finite Element Method (FEM) is proposed in this paper. The nonlinear behavior of the steel and concrete is modeled by plasticity and damage models, respectively.

Beyond parents and educators: Older siblings as influential figures in nonformal engineering contexts

open access: yesJournal of Engineering Education, Volume 115, Issue 4, October 2026.
Abstract Background Given the growing need for a well‐prepared engineering workforce, strategic investments must extend beyond formal education to include nonformal learning environments. While prior research highlights the role of parents, educators, and mentors in shaping young children's engineering development, siblings remain an understudied yet ...

Experimental Investigation of the Effect of Compressive Interface Stress on Interfaces in Reinforced Concrete Elements under Cyclic Action

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Reinforced concrete interfaces, either cracks within monolithic elements or joints between concretes cast at different times may become critical under cyclic actions, due to stiffness and interface resistance degradation.
