Review of Research on Reinforced Concrete Shell Structure Produced Using an Inflated Form
Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Reinforced concrete shell structures produced using an inflated form are widely used in large‐span thin‐shell spatial structures. Unlike the construction technology of traditional concrete building structures, this method involves prefabricating the membrane material into a designed shape as the construction framework.

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.The development of small‐scale wind turbines with composite materials continues to gain momentum due to their cost‐effectiveness, high energy conversion efficiency, and ease of deployment. Despite these advantages, such composite structures are susceptible to operational failures such as fiber rupture, matrix cracking, and delamination.
