Fatigue safety level provided by Brazilian design standards for a prestressed girder highway bridge
Revista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais, 2021 It is well known that highway bridges are subjected to fatigue as they work under live loads with different frequencies and amplitude. The safety level for fatigue required by Brazilian codes is still unknown, especially for prestressed concrete girders.

Self‐Regulating Sodium‐Ion Battery Materials: From Phase Reconstruction to Functional Activation
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Self‐regulating sodium‐ion batteries hinge on programmable phase behavior in layered oxides, interphases that renew without growth, and electrolytes that steer solvation and chemistry. This review distills mechanisms into design rules that span composition, site and entropy tuning, and self‐buffering anodes, linking operando evidence to choices and ...
