Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Post‐earthquake fires pose a significant threat to urban environments, with potentially catastrophic consequences for buildings and infrastructure. To enhance understanding and mitigate these risks, this study conducts a comparative analysis of post‐earthquake fire (PEF) in two‐dimensional (2D) and three‐dimensional (3D) reinforced concrete ...

Multi‐level fatigue reliability assessment of reinforced concrete railway bridges
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract This paper presents a multi‐level reliability framework for assessing the fatigue life of reinforced concrete (RC) railway trough bridges subjected to cyclic loading. The framework incorporates increasing levels of analytical complexity and real‐world data in four steps. First, an analytical model applies S–N curves and the Palmgren–Miner rule

Exploring the potential of Textile Reinforced Concrete for corrosion‐insensitive retaining walls
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract In a context where durability concerns, particularly the corrosion of steel reinforcement, remain a critical challenge for conventional reinforced concrete structures under severe exposure, Textile Reinforced Concrete (TRC) is emerging as a promising alternative.

Rotation capacity of continuous reinforced concrete slab strips revisited
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Rotation capacity is a key characteristic of statically indeterminate reinforced concrete structures, as it (i) enables bending moment redistributions, whether intentionally introduced through optimized reinforcement layouts or arising from unforeseen self‐equilibrated stress states, and (ii) promotes large rotations at failure load, thereby ...

Novel method to calculate average bit error probability of UWB non-coherent system
Tongxin xuebao, 2010 A novel method based on clustered point process was proposed to calculate average bit error probability（ABEP） of UWB non-coherent system on IEEE 802.15.3a channel.In particular,the expectation and variance of the sig-nal to noise ratio（SNR） in the ...

Durability performance of a high‐performance fiber‐reinforced concrete for bridge applications
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract This paper investigates the durability performance of a coarse‐aggregate high‐performance fiber‐reinforced concrete (HPFRC) developed as a cost‐efficient material solution for precast bridge applications. A comprehensive experimental program was conducted to assess the resistance of the material to the principal deterioration mechanisms ...

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Several test methods have been proposed in the literature for measuring the level of residual prestress, most of them involving either semi‐ or fully destructive techniques for local measurements which could be highly sensitive to boundary conditions and execution details.

Estimating red deer Cervus elaphus population density using drones in a steep and rugged terrain
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Precise and accurate information about population density, crucial for wildlife management, is difficult to obtain for elusive species living in dense forests or steep and inaccessible terrain. Using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), we developed a method for obtaining absolute population estimates of ungulates living in steep, rugged, and partly ...

Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.A 4D X‐ray computed tomography experimental campaign was carried out on a porous carbonate rock to investigate the link between initial porosity and deformation modes. This paper presents the experiment and the methods used to explore this relationship.The study of the mechanical behaviour of carbonate rocks has benefited from the evolution of ...
