Numerical Approach to Optimize the Dynamic Behaviour of Structures Considering Structural Durability

open access: yesVibration, 2023
In the design of lightweight structures, both the dynamics and durability must be taken into account. In this paper, a methodology for the combined optimization of structural dynamics, lightweight design, and lifetime with discrete vibration engineering ...

Investigating the pharmacodynamic durability of GalNAc–siRNA conjugates

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2020
One hallmark of trivalent N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc)-conjugated siRNAs is the remarkable durability of silencing that can persist for months in preclinical species and humans.

Structure, Fractality, Mechanics and Durability of Calcium Silicate Hydrates

open access: yesFractal and Fractional, 2021
Cement-based materials are widely utilized in infrastructure. The main product of hydrated products of cement-based materials is calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) gels that are considered as the binding phase of cement paste. C-S-H gels in Portland cement

The durability of consumer durables [PDF]

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, 1994
AbstractThe life span of a product is a key component in assessing its environmental impact. Until very recently, however, product durability was far from prominent in the environmental debate. This has begun to change due to mounting concern about waste, the prospect of producer ‘take back’ schemes and the importance of quality in highly competitive ...

The Durability of Recycled Fine Aggregate Concrete: A Review

open access: yesMaterials, 2022
With the rapid development of urbanization, many new buildings are erected, and old ones are demolished and/or recycled. Thus, the reuse of building materials and improvements in reuse efficiency have become hot research topics. In recent years, scholars
