Analysis of the influence of supplementary reinforcement on the behavior of reinforced‐concrete two‐pile caps subjected to concentric and eccentric loading

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines the behavior of reinforced‐concrete pile caps on two piles under concentric and eccentric loading, with emphasis on the influence of horizontal and vertical supplementary reinforcement on load‐carrying capacity. Although the Strut‐and‐Tie method does not include this reinforcement in the internal equilibrium, it was found

The “We” and “Me” of Identity in Hazardous Industry Organizations: Face Work Tactics Among Practicing Engineers

Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
In this paper, we use Goffman's notion of “face work” to examine how pipeline engineers perform and present their working selves as competent experts. Our analysis identifies various faces and face work tactics, including a focus on professional judgment, actively selling one's expertise relative to others, protective self‐deprecatory strategies, and ...

Cotton Farming Pesticides Affect Ileal Microbiota Activity and Expression of Virulome but Not Resistome or Metabolic Pathways in a Sedentary Wild Passerine

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The increased use of agrochemicals to enhance crop production has had detrimental environmental effects including implication in the sharp decline of North American farmland‐breeding birds. Here, using a combination of deep shotgun metatranscriptomics and pesticide exposure data, we sought to assess whether exposure to cotton (Gossypium spp ...

Recent progress in studies of the last million years of human physical and behavioural evolution Avancées récentes dans l’étude du dernier million d'années d’évolution physique et éthologique de l'espèce humaine

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
This article presents a synthesis of recent developments in the study of human evolution over the past five years. It begins with an overview of hominin species nomenclature and diversity, followed by an examination of the proposed population bottleneck ∼900,000 years ago.
