On the durability of surgical masks after simulated handling and wear

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
AbstractAfter the spread of COVID-19, surgical masks became highly recommended to the public. They tend to be handled and used multiple times, which may impact their performance. To evaluate this risk, surgical masks of Type IIR were submitted to four simulated treatments: folding, ageing with artificial saliva or sweat and washing cycles.

Comparison of Damage to Wood Pallets in Use with Damages Occurring Using the Virginia Tech FasTrack Simulation of Pallet Use

open access: yesBioResources, 2023
The durability of a pallet affects the amount of use a pallet can withstand before functionality is lost. A reliable prediction of durability can be used to determine the effect of pallet performance on supply chain operating costs. The objective of this

A Durability Prediction Method for Historical Square Rebar Reinforced Concrete Buildings

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
Square rebars were developed and used for decades in the early development of reinforced concrete (RC) structures; however, the objectives of modern concrete structure durability analyses and standards are centered on round rebars in past decades, which ...

Durability of simulated DWPF annealed glasses [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Simulated high-level waste glass samples of the DWPF projected compositions were annealed at various times and temperatures in order to develop time-temperature-transformation diagrams. These heat treated glasses were subjected to the Product Consistency Test (PCT) to evaluate glass durability.

Simulation induces durable, extensive changes to self-knowledge

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Social Psychology, 2020
The sense of self is a hallmark of the human experience, but it is also unstable. Even simulating another person – thinking about their traits or experiences – can shift how one thinks about their own traits or experiences. Simulating a target shifts self-knowledge such that it becomes more similar to the target; in six studies, we explore how ...

Explicitly Assessing the Durability of RC Structures Considering Spatial Variability and Correlation

open access: yesInfrastructures, 2021
The durability design of reinforced concrete (RC) structures that are exposed to aggressive environmental attacks (e.g., corrosion due to chloride ingress in marine environment) plays a vital role in ensuring the structural serviceability within a ...
