A 3D‐printed optical microscope for low‐cost histological imaging
Abstract We present the manufacture and characterisation of a 3D‐printed, low‐cost optical microscope using both a 3D‐printed chassis and 3D‐printed illumination and imaging optics. The required commercial components, consisting of a basic camera for image acquisition and light emitting diode controlled by a Raspberry Pi for illumination, are ...

Experimental investigation on the ultimate strength of partially infilled and steel-braced reinforced concrete frames [PDF]
Infilled walls are normally considered as nonstructural elements. However, these walls are effective in carrying lateral loads. In this regard, an experimental investigation was planned and conducted to study the effect of braced and partially concrete ...

ABSTRACT Seismic retrofit stands as a cost‐effective method to strengthen vulnerable buildings and enhance the resilience of earthquake‐prone communities. The selection of suitable retrofit strategies is often facilitated by decision‐support schemes, which enable the comparison of various options against user‐defined criteria (weighted according to ...

Strengthening of brick infilled RC frames with different aspect ratios by means of CFRP overlays
Post earthquake field investigations reveal that frames with inferior detailing are vulnerable to seismic actions. The presence of a large building stock in Turkey, which is vulnerable to an imminent earthquake, entails fast, relatively easy, and ...

Behavior of masonry infill panels in RC frames subjected to in plane and out of plane loads [PDF]
The building envelope in Europe is usually made of masonry walls, with enclosure and infill functions. Masonry walls have a major economical importance and contribute significantly to the building performance.
