A talus rock glacier in Nantlle Valley, North Wales

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Landforms comprising mixtures of fine and coarse sediment and deposited during late glacial times are ubiquitous in the British mountains. In many cases, their interpretation has often proved contentious; as a result, the non‐generic term discrete debris accumulations (DDA) has been used to describe them and, over the last 50 years, some have ...

Monitoring shallow geothermal aquifers with active‐source distributed acoustic sensing: A prognostic feasibility study on the University of Leeds Geothermal Campus

open access: yesNear Surface Geophysics, EarlyView.
Abstract The United Kingdom's shallow aquifers offer significant but underdeveloped geothermal energy resource. Seismic methods can help address this by improving the understanding of aquifer heterogeneity and potentially allowing long‐term monitoring of thermal plumes.

Experimental evaluation of the diagonal tension test of hollow clay blocks strengthening with (AR) glass fibers

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials
In many developing countries, masonry infill walls are commonly constructed using hollow clay blocks. Buildings incorporating these infill walls are particularly vulnerable to seismic loads due to the absence of adequate lateral load-resisting elements ...

Combined Effects of Thermal Cycling Aging and Reinforcement Content on the Ball‐On‐Disk Wear of Additively Manufactured Polylactic Acid Composites

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Thermal Aging and Tribological Tests of Additive Manufactured PLA Composites. ABSTRACT This study focuses on the additive manufacturing of pure polylactic acid (PLA) specimens and milled glass fiber (GF)‐filled PLA composites under thermal cycling aging and wear tests. Wear tracks have been analyzed via 3D optical profiling and SEM imaging.

Topology optimization of the flat steel shear wall based on the volume constraint and strain energy assumptions under the seismic loading conditions

open access: yesScientific Reports
In structural engineering systems, shear walls are two-dimensional vertical elements designed to endure lateral forces acting in-plane, most frequently seismic and wind loads.

Numerical Investigation of the Effects of Flexible Joint Connection Details on the In-Plane Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Frames

open access: yesFirat University Journal of Experimental and Computational Engineering
Infill walls quickly become damaged under in-plane and out-of-plane effects, losing their effectiveness within the structural system. Therefore, in recent years, researchers have focused on alternative connection details to better understand the effects ...

Mechanical and Impact Response of Adhesively Bonded ASA/PA12 Sandwich Structures Produced by Fused Filament Fabrication

open access: yesPolymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
Adhesively bonded ASA/PA12 FFF sandwich structures reveal that interfacial compliance governs mechanical performance. Cyanoacrylate enhances strength but induces brittle failure, while polyurethane improves ductility and impact resistance, demonstrating that adhesive properties and stacking sequence are critical design parameters for optimizing multi ...
