Bearing Capacity of Lightweight Aggregate Concrete

Journal of the Society of Materials Science, Japan, 1969
The present paper describes the results of the experimental and theoretical investigations made on the bearing capacity of lightweight aggregate concrete. Laboratory tests were conducted to clarify the effects of the dimension of the specimen, the ratio of footing area to loading area of the specimen and concrete mix proportion on the bearing capacity ...

Leveraging Life Cycle Assessment for Informing Packaging Eco‐Design and Eco‐Modulation

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Eco‐modulation is designed to promote the adoption of eco‐design. However, in practice, its application is mostly concentrated on end‐of‐life (EoL) optimization. This study addresses the gap by proposing a framework to assess product–packaging systems as integrated units throughout the full life cycle.

How AI and Digital Technologies Can Enhance Sustainable Livestock Manure Management: An Overview From Treatment to Distribution

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainable livestock manure management sits at the nexus of climate, nutrient circularity and water quality. This review explores how artificial intelligence (AI) and digital platforms are used across four management stages, that is, treatment, storage, valorisation and distribution, and figures out where integration fails to deliver ...

Beyond feasibility filters: How expertise heterogeneity enables innovation recognition

Strategic Management Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary Organizations often struggle to identify promising innovations that balance novelty and feasibility in multidisciplinary domains, yet how does evaluator expertise heterogeneity shape these assessments? This study examines how evaluator expertise influences innovation evaluation through a field experiment with National ...

An Ecosystem to Develop Multi‐Agent Systems in Real‐World IoT Applications

Software: Practice and Experience, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Software agents and multi‐agent systems are critical components in the development of distributed autonomous systems, as they exhibit a wide range of “intelligence,” from reactive behaviors to advanced reasoning and planning. Integrating these capabilities into multi‐agent systems enables distributed artificial intelligence, a programming ...

Stability and plasticity interaction in building‐size steel sway frames

Steel Construction, EarlyView.
Abstract Accurate design rules are crucial for the safety, sustainability and economy of steel structures. To predict the load‐bearing capacity of sway structures, Eurocode 3, Part 1‐1, uses individual member unity checks, which are assumed to include the interaction between members, related to their stability and plastic behaviour.
