Evaluation of Reliquefaction Behavior of Coastal Embankment Due to Successive Earthquakes Based on Shaking Table Tests

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Liquefaction caused by long-term cyclic loads in loose saturated soil can lead to ground subsidence and superstructure failures. To address this issue, this study aimed to emulate the liquefaction phenomenon based on a shaking table test while especially

Nondestructive Testing of Welded Composite Metal Foams

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
X‐ray computed tomography (CT) is used to evaluate welded steel–steel composite metal foam (CMF) joints of two density classes. It reports variation in postweld spatial void distribution and correlates it to weld‐induced changes, mechanical performance, and failure within welded CMF panels.

Influence of Scan Strategies in Electron Beam Powder Bed Fusion on Solidification, Microstructure, and High‐Temperature Compressive Properties of γ′‐Strengthened Inconel 738LC

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Experiments and thermophysical simulations were conducted to investigate the electron beam powder bed fusion electron beam (PBF‐EB/M) process for the γ′‐strengthened nickel‐based superalloy Inconel 738LC. The results demonstrate the impact of process‐induced microstructural variations on high‐temperature mechanical behavior, providing a basis for ...

Effect of cement content on the static and dynamic liquefaction resistance of fine tailing

Case Studies in Construction Materials
Cement tailings storage (CTS) in goaf may experience static and dynamic loading, such as rock stress, mine earthquake and blasting stress. When subject to dynamic loading, the risk for liquefaction of CTS may cause goaf barricade instability.

Paternal Circadian Disruption Impairs Offspring Cognition via Sperm microRNAs

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Paternal circadian disruption remodels the sperm small RNA payload, elevating miR‐92a‐3p/miR‐25‐3p levels and perturbing early embryonic gene regulatory programs. Microinjection experiments and single‐embryo transcriptomics reveal sex‐specific developmental vulnerabilities, ultimately impairing offspring hippocampal synaptic plasticity and cognition ...
