Seismic fragility analysis on low-ductile reinforced concrete frame with inadequate lap splice length [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
In Malaysia, many existing buildings, particularly old buildings, are not designed for credible seismic actions. Most of the residential buildings in Malaysia which below 20 stories typically features an open space ground floor and the upper floors are ...

Experimental Investigation of Concrete Beams with Novel Parallel-Lap Reinforcement Under Flexure

open access: yesBuildings
To address the technical challenges associated with complex connection configurations and excessively long lap zones in the industrialized and prefabricated construction of reinforcements, this study proposes a novel parallel-lap splice that incorporates

Extracellular matrix and proteolysis: mechanisms driving irreversible changes and shaping cell behavior

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 13, Page 3788-3813, July 2026.
Irreversible ECM proteolysis by remodeling enzymes shapes development, homeostasis, and disease. ECM‐degrading proteases display cell specificity and are governed by shared mechanisms, exhibiting functional redundancy in generating matrikines, growth factors, and cytokines.

Effect of Impact Load on Splice Length of Reinforcing Bars

open access: yesInternational Journal of Concrete Structures and Materials, 2020
Impact loading damage of reinforced concrete (RC) members deteriorates bond strength of reinforcing bars. To understand the effect of strain rate on the bond strength of reinforcing bars in RC beams under impact load, drop hammer test was performed on ...

Aptamer‐Based Delivery Systems for VEGF and NGF Modulation in Ocular Therapies

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 23, 19 June 2026.
Aptamer‐based delivery systems targeting NGF and VEGF hold significant potential for precise and sustained treatment of complex diseases affecting both the anterior and posterior segments of the eye. This review critically summarizes current strategies for NGF and VEGF delivery as well as VEGF sequestration, providing a clinical perspective on how ...

Special Length Priority Optimization Model: Minimizing Wall Rebar Usage and Cutting Waste

open access: yesBuildings
The production of steel rebar is an energy-intensive process that generates CO2 emissions. In construction, waste is generated by cutting stock-length rebar to the required lengths.

Behavior of RC beams with tension lap splices confined with transverse reinforcement using different types of concrete under pure bending

open access: yesAlexandria Engineering Journal, 2018
Many research studies have been carried out on the different parameters affecting the bond strength of tension lap splices in RC beams but limited attention has been given to the effect of using transverse reinforcement along the splice length. The first

Microstructural Evidence for Early Childhood Stress in a Community in Transition at Hisban, Jordan

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 190, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Identification of stress across infancy and childhood can reflect maternal and environmental influences on early life health. In the 19th century community of Hisban, many infants died before 2 years of age with evidence of metabolic disease, including rickets, that likely ties with maternal health.
