Split‐disk testing of precast ultra‐high performance fiber‐reinforced concrete tubes
Abstract Ultra‐high performance fiber‐reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) has great potential for structural applications involving precast cylindrical shapes, including pipes, silos and stay‐in‐place forms for concrete columns. This study examines the performance of UHPFRC rings under internal pressure simulated using the split‐disk loading method, along ...

Abstract This article examines the behavior of reinforced‐concrete pile caps on two piles under concentric and eccentric loading, with emphasis on the influence of horizontal and vertical supplementary reinforcement on load‐carrying capacity. Although the Strut‐and‐Tie method does not include this reinforcement in the internal equilibrium, it was found

Abstract Background Para‐testicular rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is a rare and aggressive malignancy primarily affecting children and adolescents, with peak incidence between ages 2 and 5 years. Of the histological variants of RMS, the spindle cell type of RMS is particularly uncommon, accounting for approximately 5% of cases.

ABSTRACT As a commonly used bushing current‐carrying structure in recent years, contactor‐type electrical connection parts operate in a complex environment of electric, thermal and chemical corrosion for extended periods. With the increase of ultra‐high voltage (UHV) transmission capacity, its operating environment faces more stringent challenges, and ...
