Pre‐failure behavior of continuous post‐tensioned and post‐grouted beam in case of tendon failure
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Grouted tendons are a common solution for long‐span bridge structures. The grout provides bond and corrosion protection for prestressing steel. However, if the grouting is defective, corrosion of the prestressing steel may initiate and eventually lead to tendon failure.

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Linear elastic finite element analyses (LEFEAs) have become more frequent in the design and assessment of reinforced concrete slabs under concentrated loads, as they enable low‐cost evaluation of the distribution of shear forces over critical sections.

Local Search and the Evolution of World Models
Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract An open question regarding how people develop their models of the world is how new candidates are generated for consideration out of infinitely many possibilities. We discuss the role that evolutionary mechanisms play in this process. Specifically, we argue that when it comes to developing a global world model, innovation is necessarily ...

Supersonic transporter (SST) deformity of penile prosthesis: Current management strategies
UroPrecision, EarlyView.Abstract Supersonic transporter (SST) deformity, also known as floppy glans syndrome, represents a persistent source of post‐operative dissatisfaction among patients undergoing inflatable penile prosthesis (IPP) implantation. Although infection and mechanical failure rates have declined with advances in device design and surgical technique, SST ...

Abundance estimates of eastern black rails in southeastern Colorado
Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.This study estimated eastern black rail (Laterallus jamaicensis jamaicensis) detection, occupancy, and abundance in southeastern Colorado. We found detection probability increased later in the season and later at night but decreased with ambient noise. Occupancy increased with residual vegetation height and detection of Virginia rail (Rallus limicola).

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT A formation inversion algorithm with real‐time performance and accuracy is crucial for natural gamma logging while drilling (LWD). However, traditional inversion algorithms are often limited by high computational resource consumption and insufficient accuracy.

Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 435-447., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.
