Wildfire Smoke Along Colorado's Front Range in 2020: An Evaluation of PM2.5 Monitor Spacing and Smoke Forecasts

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 18, 28 September 2026.
Abstract The 2020 wildfires caused widespread elevated fine particulate matter (PM2.5) concentrations across the western U.S. The Colorado Front Range experienced multiple smoke episodes from nearby fires and fires hundreds of kilometers away. Multiple days (88 total) with elevated PM2.5 along the Front Range occurred in 2020 between July and October ...

Performance of FRP-encased Steel-Concrete Composite Columns [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The thesis summarizes the experimental and analytical results of studies on the behavior of two FRP-encased steel-concrete composite columns under axial loading. Composite columns have been conventionally constructed using steel and concrete. This study

Assessing Wildfire Hazard for Powerline Expansion Under the Changing Climates in Alberta, Canada

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.
Abstract Escaped powerline‐caused fires (EPFs) are increasing in fire‐prone regions, including Alberta, Canada, underscoring growing tensions between expanding powerlines and managing wildfire risk. As fire‐conducive weather becomes more frequent, it remains unclear how future infrastructure can be planned to minimize wildfire risk.

A novel FE model for RC beams strengthened in bending by mechanically fastened FRP laminates

open access: yes, 2012
This paper proposes a Finite-Element model (FEM) for simulating the behaviour of RC beams strengthened by Mechanically Fastened FRP laminates (MF-FRP). The model is developed by assembling a frame-like element to simulate the RC beam, a “rod” element for

Predictive Assessment of Progressive Damage in Mechanically Fastened Glass–Epoxy Composites

open access: yesPolymer Composites, Volume 47, Issue 17, Page 16024-16040, 10 September 2026.
Progressive damage in mechanically fastened glass–epoxy composites. ABSTRACT Ensuring the structural integrity of advanced composites necessitates precise methodologies for forecasting the onset and progression of damage. This research focused on the predicting progressive damage (PD) for riveted joints composite laminates employing a combined ...

A zero-thickness interface model for simulating the bond behaviour of FRP-strips glued on concrete

open access: yes, 2012
The present paper deals with the bond behaviour of Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) laminates glued to concrete substrates. It formulates a numerical approach completely conceived within the general framework of fracture mechanics which investigates the ...

Syntaxin‐3 Regulates Tight Junction Assembly in Human Retinal Pigment Epithelium

open access: yesCell Biochemistry and Function, Volume 44, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) consists of polarized epithelial cells, serving as a support system for photoreceptor maintenance, where the polarity is contributed by the distribution of syntaxins (STX) within the cell. STX3, a known regulator of apical trafficking in epithelial cells, was previously understood to be absent in human RPE ...

Mitigation of concrete cover separation in frpstrengthened RC beams using FRP U-jackets

open access: yes, 2014
Concrete cover separation is a common failure mode of reinforced concrete (RC) beams strengthened with a fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) plate bonded to the tension face (FRP-plated RC beams).
