Aggregate effect on the concrete cone capacity of an undercut anchor under quasi-static tensile load [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In the last decades, fastening systems have become an essential part of the construction industry. Post-installed mechanical anchors are frequently used in concrete members to connect them with other load bearing structural members, or to attach ...

Horizontal Compression Test: A Proposed Method for Indirect Determination of Tensile Strength of Stiff Soils and Soft Rocks

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Tensile strength is an important parameter in many engineering applications. In loess slopes, for instance, it governs the development and propagation of tension cracks that usually ultimately lead to crack–sliding and toppling failures, which are among ...

Numerical Modeling of Shock-Induced Damage for Granite under Dynamic Loading [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Johnson-Holmquist constitutive model for brittle materials, coupled with a crack softening model, is used to describe the deviatoric and tensile crack propagation beneath impact crater in granite.

Neurovascular Contacts in the Pathophysiology of Neuralgic Amyotrophy: An Observational Study

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Neuralgic amyotrophy (NA) is a prevalent, monophasic, multifocal immune‐mediated neuropathy. A distinctive characteristic of the disease is the occurrence of nerve or fascicle constrictions and torsions (NA‐associated focal nerve lesions, NAFL). The pathophysiology underlying this phenomenon remains to be fully elucidated.

Evaluation of Fatigue Life of CRM-Reinforced SMA and Its Relationship to Dynamic Stiffness

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2014
Fatigue cracking is an essential problem of asphalt concrete that contributes to pavement damage. Although stone matrix asphalt (SMA) has significantly provided resistance to rutting failure, its resistance to fatigue failure is yet to be fully addressed.

Quasiparticle band structures and optical properties of strained monolayer MoS2 and WS2

open access: yes, 2013
The quasiparticle (QP) band structures of both strainless and strained monolayer MoS$_{2}$ are investigated using more accurate many body perturbation \emph{GW} theory and maximally localized Wannier functions (MLWFs) approach.

Microstructural Evolution and Vacancy Defect Formation in Mn–Mo–Ni RPV Steel Under Low Cycle Fatigue: Insights From EBSD and PALS

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Low‐cycle fatigue damage in Mn–Mo–Ni reactor pressure vessel steel is examined using a combined electron backscatter diffraction and positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy approach. The study correlates texture evolution, dislocation substructure development, and vacancy‐type defect formation across uniform, necked, and fracture regions, providing
