Hybrid Flexural Strengthening Technique of Reinforced Concrete Beams Using Fe-SMA and CFRP Materials

Buildings
This study proposes a hybrid flexural strengthening technique for reinforced concrete (RC) beams by combining the near-surface mounted (NSM) and externally bonded reinforcement (EBR) methods.

PID‐Like Robust Control of Non‐Minimum Phase Robotic Manipulators

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper proposes an output‐feedback tracking controller for non‐minimum phase nonlinear systems with unknown uncertainties and external disturbances, where not all states are measurable, and the zero dynamics are unstable. The approach combines a backstepping‐based stabilizing state‐feedback law with a cascade extended high‐gain observer ...

Sustainable Utilization and Fire Protection of Wood‐Based Composites in Buildings: Innovations, Challenges, and Future Directions

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The increasing use of wood and wood‐based composites in construction reflects a global shift toward renewable materials that support sustainable development objectives, including carbon reduction and responsible resource use. While wood offers substantial environmental benefits compared to conventional materials such as concrete and steel, its
