Constraining Mantle Viscosity Structure From a Statistical Analysis of Slab Stagnation Events
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020 The viscosity structure of Earth's mantle, even the 1‐D radial viscosity profile, remains not well constrained. The dynamics of the subducting slabs is strongly affected by, and can be used to constrain, the viscosity structure of the mantle.

Punching Shear Characterization of Steel Fiber-Reinforced Concrete Flat Slabs
HighTech and Innovation Journal, 2022 Punching shear failure in thin slabs under concentrated loads can cause shear stresses near columns. The use of steel fiber is a practical way to improve a slab-column connection's punching strength and deformation capacity.
