Numerical Analysis of Retrofitted RC Column under Lateral Load [PDF]
Computational Engineering and Physical Modeling, 2022 One of the most common retrofitting processes for columns is reinforced concrete (RC) jacketing. This process enhances the ductility, stiffness, flexural capacity, and shear capacity of columns, and increases the axial load-carrying capacity of the RC ...

Experimental evaluation of shear and compression strength of masonry wall before and after reinforcement: Deep repointing [PDF]
, 2007 Masonry presents some inadequacies due to its almost total lack of tensile strength. Typical damage to multiple leaf walls during earthquakes is the loss of bond between the leaves with consequent collapse of the external leaf.

An Ultra-Low Bending Loss Negative Curvature Hollow Core Fiber With a Polygon Jacketing Layer
IEEE Photonics Journal, 2023 We design and simulate a new type of hollow-core antiresonant fiber with the polygon jacketing layer. Through numerical calculations, the confinement loss is approximately 0.003 dB/km at 1.45 μm and the bandwidth is ∼ 410 nm @
