Effect of Stacking Sequence on Mechanical and Water Absorption Characteristics of Jute/Banana/Basalt Fabric Aluminium Fibre Laminates With Diamond Microexpanded Mesh

International Journal of Polymer Science, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
This research focuses on hybrid woven fibre metal laminates (HWFMLs), specifically on the innovative hybridization of natural woven fibres (NWFs) with aluminium diamond microexpandable mesh (Al‐DMEM) in thin laminates. More specifically, it investigates the effect on the mechanical and water absorption properties of incorporating basalt (B), jute (J ...

Retrofitting of a Multi-Span Simply Supported Bridge into a Semi-Integral Bridge

Applied Sciences
Thousands of multi-span, simply supported beam bridges with short or medium spans have been built in China. They often suffer from problems of cracks in the link slabs over piers, and the deterioration and damage of deck expansion joints at abutments. To

Experimental and Numerical Investigations of Flat Approach Slab–Soil Interaction in Jointless Bridge

Applied Sciences
In jointless bridges, a grade flat approach slab (GFAS) with the same elevation as the pavement can transfer the girder’s longitudinal deformation to the backfill.
