Abstract This study introduces an innovative approach to strengthening defected reinforced concrete (RC) columns using externally bonded stainless steel and galvanized steel plates. Unlike conventional strengthening methods, this technique replaces traditional transverse stirrups with steel sheets, providing enhanced confinement and ductility.

Rotation capacity of continuous reinforced concrete slab strips revisited
Abstract Rotation capacity is a key characteristic of statically indeterminate reinforced concrete structures, as it (i) enables bending moment redistributions, whether intentionally introduced through optimized reinforcement layouts or arising from unforeseen self‐equilibrated stress states, and (ii) promotes large rotations at failure load, thereby ...

A defect‐rich TiO2−x nanolayer was simultaneously synthesized and nano‐anchored on a mesoporous bio‐silica (diatomite) through a rapid, low‐temperature atmospheric‐pressure plasma process in aqueous media. The optimized TiO2−x/bio‐silica composite (DE 700) exhibits oxygen vacancies, an anatase–rutile heterointerface, broad solar‐spectrum absorption ...

Abstract Grounded in the L2 motivational self system theory, this quasi‐experimental study investigated the impact of three motivational interventions on two outcome measures: L2 learning effort and L2 achievement. A total of 391 Chinese junior secondary students were assigned to four conditions: a control group receiving no motivational instruction ...

An Experimental Study on the Protective Effect of Memantine in Noise‐Induced Hearing Loss
ABSTRACT Objective This study examined the potential protective effects of memantine, an N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist, against acoustic trauma (AT) in guinea pigs, using electrophysiological and histopathological analyses. Methods Thirty guinea pigs with normal hearing were divided into six groups (n = 5 per group): Group 1 (control),
