Unified Theory for Flexural Strengthening of Masonry with Composites. [PDF]
Materials (Basel), 2019 Recent calamitous events have shown the fragility of the existing masonry buildings. Many of them are heritage structures, such as churches and monumental buildings. Therefore, optimized strengthening strategies are necessary. Experimental studies performed on masonry elements strengthened with composite systems have shown the performance of these ...

Relaxation of Flexure‐Induced Strengthening of Ice
Geophysical Research Letters, 2022 AbstractIncreasing fetch as sea ice retreats with global warming is increasing the amplitude of ocean waves, motivating the need for a better understanding of the impact of episodic flexing on the strength of ice. Unexpectedly, recent studies showed that the flexural strength of ice increases by as much as a factor of two or more upon cyclic loading ...
