Economical Reactive Powder Concrete Cast Using Available Materials in North Sinai, Egypt

Archives of Civil Engineering, 2013
In this research reactive powder concrete (RPC) was prepared using sand from North Sinai. The mechanical properties of locally cast RPC were investigated and evaluated by studying the effects of using different cement and silica fume contents and new ...

Cellular Responses to Mechanical Cues Across Scales: From Fundamental Insights to Translational Potential

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review examines how cellular behavior is regulated by mechanical cues transmitted through soft biomaterials, from single‐cell mechanosensing to tissue‐level adaptation. It highlights why physiological relevance, rather than model complexity alone, is critical for translational mechanobiology and introduces a scoring framework linking material ...

Azobenzene's Cross‐Scale Optics and Photonics: Molecular Photoswitching, Mesoscopic Material Motions, and Adaptive Devices

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Azobenzene photoswitches translate molecular‐scale E/Z photoisomerization into macroscopic material responses and device‐level photonic functions. This Review highlights how azobenzene research has evolved from molecular photochemistry to photoalignment, mass migration, photomechanics, and heat release, ultimately enabling holography, reconfigurable ...

Relations between indirect tensile and flexural strengths for dry and plastic concretes

Revista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais
Indirect tensile strength is not usually used for concrete mixtures proportioning and its technological control; flexural strength tests under third point loads arrangement are the pattern for such goals. Indeed, neither of such tests have the capability

Low temperature cracking performance of WMA with the use of the Superpave indirect tensile test

Construction and Building Materials, 2012
Abstract Low temperature cracking of wax modified bitumen and asphalt mixtures were studied using the Dynamic Shear Rheometer (DSR), Bending Beam Rheometer (BBR), Superpave IDT and Thermal Stress Restrained Specimens Test (TSRST). Two types of commercial waxes (FT-paraffin and Asphaltan-B) were added to 70/100 penetration grade bitumen.

Indirect Tensile Strength Test on Heterogeneous Rock Using Square Plate Sample with a Circular Hole [PDF]

Lithosphere
An indirect testing method for determining the tensile strength of rock-like heterogeneous materials is proposed. The realistic failure process analysis method, which can consider material inhomogeneity, is applied to model the failure process of the ...

A Geometrically Transient Platform for Bioelectronic Implants

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Minimally invasive bioelectronic implants often compromise performance for smaller sizes. To resolve this optimization dilemma, a wireless bioelectronic implant with a transient geometry is introduced (MiFi). The origami‐inspired device miniaturizes up to sixfold for syringe insertion and autonomously unfolds post‐implantation.

MODELING THE DIRECT TENSILE STRENGTH FOR LIGNITE EXTRACTED AT U.M.C. PESTEANA USING THE FINITE-DISCRETE ELEMENT METHOD (FDEM) [PDF]

Fiabilitate şi Durabilitate
In rock mechanics labs, the tensile strength test is carried out by either direct or indirect methods. Among indirect test methods, the most common is a diametrical compression on a disk specimen, also known as the Brazilian Tensile Strength (BTS) test.
