Durability of concrete-encapsulated GFRP bars subjected to seawater immersion
Glass fiber reinforce polymer (GFRP) bars have better durability than traditional steel bars, but there are few studies on their long-term performance in actual service environments especially the marine environment. To investigate the durability of GFRP

Long-term behavior of GFRP reinforcing bars
Abstract Glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars represent a valid solution as internal reinforcement of concrete members for some particular applications. GFRP reinforcing bars (rebars) have a high-strength-to-weight ratio and good resistance to corrosion.

Extrapancreatic actions of incretin-based therapies on bone in diabetes mellitus [PDF]
Diabetes mellitus is correlated with modifications in bone microarchitectural and mechanical strength, leading to increased bone fragility. The incretin hormones, with a classical effect to increase insulin secretion following food ingestion, are now

Reversing Fatigue Damage in Carbon Fiber–Thermoplastic Composites Using Localized Plasma Heating
Schematic overview of the plasma‐assisted repair strategy for fatigue‐damaged short fiber carbon fiber/ABS composites. Pristine specimens are subjected to cyclic fatigue loading inducing damage. Localized plasma heating softens the thermoplastic matrix, enabling healing and restoring mechanical performance. Tensile testing is used to quantify recovery.
