Thin concrete overlays wit carbon reinforcement on deteriorated concrete pavements
Acta Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2022 In many countries, concrete pavements are normally built as Jointed Plain Concrete Pavements. Due to a lack of alternatives, repairing deteriorated concrete pavements usually requires the replacement of the complete pavement structure and maintaining the

Dynamics of Welded Rails Gap and Hardness of Rail Base
International Journal of Applied Mechanics and Engineering, 2020 The problem of gap estimation for a break of a continuous welded rail is studied. The track is represented as a semi-infinite rod on elastic-based damping. Static and dynamic solutions are obtained.

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.A tongue‐like bioactuator is developed using orthogonally aligned cultured skeletal muscle tissues. By applying directional electrical stimulation of varying strengths, the actuator achieves jointless, multidirectional movements. The device features a fully soft, skeleton‐free design, enabling biomimetic deformation and functional actuation, and offers

Investigation on Flooding-Resistant Performance of Integral Abutment and Jointless Bridge
Advances in Civil Engineering, 2020 Bridge washouts connected to flood events are deemed one of the main reasons for structural collapse. Compared to traditional continuous jointed bridges, integral abutment and jointless bridges (IAJBs) have better lateral stability because there are no ...

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 2, March/April 2026.In Vanilla planifolia, CR0020 resistance to Fusarium wilt is linked to early (4–8 hpi) ERF/MYB/WRKY reprogramming and a preactivated transcriptional state, activating ROS, lignification and phytoalexins. ABSTRACT Vanilla planifolia, the main species cultivated for vanilla production, is severely threatened by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. radicis‐vanillae (
