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

open access: yesLithosphere
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 ...

Characterization of Alaskan Hot-Mix Asphalt containing Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement Material [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In order to properly characterize Alaskan HMA materials containing RAP, this study evaluated properties of 3 asphalt binders typically used in Alaska, PG 52-28, PG 52-40, and PG 58-34, and 11 HMA mixtures containing up to 35% RAP that were either ...

Injectable Stimuli‐Responsive Amphiphilic Hydrogel for Rapid Hemostasis, Robust Tissue Adhesion, and Controlled Drug Delivery in Trauma and Surgical Care

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Fast‐acting hydrogel seals bleeding wounds as the illustrated injectable, pH‐responsive network rapidly gels in situ to stop hemorrhage, adhere strongly to wet tissue, and release antibiotics in a controlled, pH‐dependent manner. The material withstands high pressures, shows excellent biocompatibility, and degrades safely, offering a versatile platform

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

open access: yesFiabilitate 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.

MODELING THE BRAZILIAN TENSILE STRENGTH TEST OF LIGNITE FROM PESTEANA OPENPIT MINE USING THE COMBINED FINITE-DISCRETE ELEMENT METHOD – FDEM [PDF]

open access: yesFiabilitate şi Durabilitate, 2023
Strength is the property of rocks to keep their internal structure unmodified and not deform under the action of a stress. Tensile strength is defined as the maximum tensile stress the rock can endure until its failure and it is usually lower than ...

Tunable Bioresorbable Scaffolds With Marine Sulfated Polysaccharides for Small‐Caliber Vascular Grafts: A Multi‐Layered Strategy Combining Electrospinning and 4‐Axis Printing

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A multilayered small‐caliber vascular scaffold combining electrospinning and 4‐axis printing is developed and biofunctionalized with marine sulfated polysaccharides from Holothuria tubulosa. The resulting construct exhibits enhanced hemocompatibility, tunable mechanical properties, and supports endothelial and smooth muscle cell adhesion and ...

An In Situ Embedded B‐MOF Sponge With Shape‐Memory for All‐in‐One Diabetic Wound Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A smart shape‐memory sponge dressing (P1A3@B‐MOF) is developed for accelerated diabetic wound healing. It achieves pH‐responsive corelease of Zn2+ and salvianolic acid B, synergistically providing antibacterial action, repolarizing macrophages to the M2 phenotype, and promoting angiogenesis.

Emergent Freestanding Complex Oxide Membranes for Multifunctional Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review surveys freestanding oxide membranes and covers fabrication and three pathways for studies and devices: strain‐free and strained membranes, and van der Waals‐integrated heterostructures. We show how coupled oxide responses map onto these routes and cross‐couple to expand behaviors.

The effects of using recycled concrete on fatigue behavior of hot mix asphalt

open access: yesJournal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2014
Fatigue cracking is the main form of structural damage in flexible pavements. Under the action of repeated vehicular loading, deterioration of the asphalt concrete materials in pavements caused by the accumulation and growth of the micro and macro cracks

Effects of Steel and Polypropylene Fiber Addition on Interface Bond Strength between Normal Concrete Substrate andSelf-Compacting Concrete Topping [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Based on facts that the composite action in semi-precast and strengthened structural system depends on the bond strength of the interface between concrete faces of different ages, this preliminary research is aimed to investigate effects of mixed ...
