Behaviour of single sided composite joints at room temperature and in case of fire after an earthquake [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
peer reviewedIn 2003, a European research program entitled “PRECIOUS - Prefabricated composite beam-to-concrete filled tube or partially reinforced-concrete-encased column connections for severe seismic and fire loadings” and funded by the Research Fund ...

Differences in mammal community response to highway construction across different levels of human land use

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Worldwide, transportation agencies have been involved in road mitigation efforts to reduce road mortality and promote connectivity of endangered species. Baseline data on how mammals respond to highway construction, however, are rarely collected in road mitigation and monitoring studies, including in the USA.

Local Buckling Influence on the Moment Redistribution Coefficient for Composite Continuous Beams of Bridges

open access: yesThe Baltic Journal of Road and Bridge Engineering, 2010
The present paper is concerned with the elastic design optimisation of continuous composite beams. This optimisation is based on the analysis of the beam in the inelastic range including the concrete creep and shrinkage, the tension stiffening and ...

The influence of vertical shear on the hogging bending moment resistance of ComFlor composite slabs

open access: yesProceedings 12th international conference on Advances in Steel-Concrete Composite Structures - ASCCS 2018, 2018
Composite slabs are designed to transfer loads in one direction e.g. the longitudinal direction of the ribs. To reduce the deflection, it is useful to realise a continuous slab with at least one intermediate support. At the intermediate support in addition to a hogging bending moment a rather large vertical shear force will act. For the verification of

Field evaluation of condensed quebracho tannins (CQT) as a white‐tailed deer repellent for soybeans

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
Experimental design of study sites across the sampling area in Wilson County, North Carolina, USA, 2024. Map frame (A) represents the relative area in North Carolina, USA, where we conducted our study. Map frames (B), (C), and (D) represent experimental plots within fields used to assess the effects of condensed quebracho tannins on soybean height ...

Research on Application of Uplift-Restricted Slip-Permitted (URSP) Connectors in Steel-Concrete Composite Frames

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
Tensile stresses and cracks in concrete slabs induced by a hogging moment have always been a disadvantage of steel-concrete composite structures and key issue of concern in the design of such structures. To reduce the tensile stress and control the crack

Mobile consumers influence the shoreward edge of intertidal seagrass ecosystems

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Ecological paradigms suggest that the environmentally stressful edge of a habitat is determined by physical factors. The work finds that, counter to these paradigms, an environmentally stressful edge can also be impacted by biotic interactions and are more complex than suggested.

Species‐Specific Genetic Patterns in Sympatric Freshwater Turtles Challenge a Generalized Multi‐Species Conservation Approach

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
We compared genetic diversity and spatial genetic structure in the snapping turtle (Chelydra serpentina; left panel), Blanding's turtle (Emydoidea blandingii; bottom right), and spotted turtle (Clemmys guttata; top right) sampled in areas of co‐occurrence across ~49,160 km2.

Market regulation and productivity: The case of the Canadian Wheat Board

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Changes to regulatory environments influence firm‐level incentives, which can move the productivity frontier or reposition firms within an existing frontier. Estimating causal effects of policy changes requires a credible counterfactual for productivity in the absence of policy change.
