Design philosophy issues of fiber reinforced polymer reinforced concrete structures
The conventional design philosophy for reinforced concrete (RC) relies heavily on the ductile properties of steel. These ductile properties are used as a "fuse" and conceal the large uncertainty in the determination of modes of failure caused ...

Nanoscale Ti–Ge–Te films were fabricated via magnetron co‐sputtering, exhibiting the exceptional thermal stability, low resistance drift, and superior mechanical flexibility. Density functional theory reveals Ti doping can convert GeTe to a direct bandgap semiconductor and enhance covalent Ti–Te bonding. Flexible phase‐change memory devices demonstrate

Periodic orbit analysis of an elastodynamic resonator using shape deformation
We report the first definitive experimental observation of periodic orbits (POs) in the spectral properties of an elastodynamic system. The Fourier transform of the density of flexural modes show peaks that correspond to stable and unstable POs of a ...

Synthesis of Elastic Metallic Nickel by Solvent‐Ligand‐Mediated Reductive Assembly
The novel elastic metallic nickel, featuring ligands coordinating on the metal surface, is synthesized via rational selection of reduction and structure‐directing organic solvents. Moreover, by modulating solvent composition and incorporating acetic acid ligands, sufficient ligands are enabled to coordinate with the metal surface, thereby improving the

Effect on compressive and flexural strength of agave fiber reinforced adobes
Adobe bricks, formed from raw clay, are used as construction materials since ancient times. Their main drawback is a low flexural and compressive strength. Agave bagasse is a waste material from the Mezcal production process.
