AI‐Revealed Transition From Density‐ to Connectivity‐Controlled Mechanics in Hierarchical Porous Materials

open access: yesSmall, Volume 22, Issue 51, 11 September 2026.
Using synchrotron‐based multiscale imaging, generative modeling algorithms, and computational mechanics models, our study reveals a scale‐dependent transition in bone mechanics. The results of the power‐scaling law illustrate a transition from density‐controlled stiffness at the trabecular scale to connectivity‐controlled, porosity‐sensitive mechanics ...

Testing coir (coconut) fiber as a novel, biodegradable material for coral reef restoration: coir interactions with larval and juvenile corals

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 7, September 2026.
Abstract Introduction Coral populations have declined in recent decades, largely due to anthropogenic climate change. In response, coral restoration projects are being implemented, and rubble stabilization is one such approach. Rubble beds form when dead coral fragments accumulate on the seafloor and can be mobilized by water flow.

Concrete rehabilitation using epoxy resins

open access: yes, 2010
The use of polymeric materials in civil construction makes possible original bonding processes because they have good adhesion. In this paper the bond between fresh/hardened concrete was made using epoxy resins in aqueous solution. Also the incorporation of one filler in the epoxy resins was analyzed. This study had two phases.

Experimental Study on the Characteristics of Polymer Concrete With Epoxy Resin

open access: yesBulletin of the Polytechnic Institute of Jassy: Constructions, Architechture Section, 2008
In the paper are presented the results of some experimental researches concerning polymer mortars and concretes realized of epoxy resin, silica fume and crushed aggregates. The mechanical characteristics of hardened concrete were determined. The silica fume content varied between 6.5% and 30% to polymer mortar and 6.4% and 9.6% to polymer concrete. The
