Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract The use of fiber reinforced concrete (FRC) in precast tunnel segments is among the most established and representative applications of this material. Over the past two decades, numerous tunnel linings were constructed with partial or total substitution of conventional steel reinforcement by fibers, this yielding to quantifiable benefits in ...

Simple and detailed modeling of corrosion‐affected slender shear critical RC beams
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract The corrosion of steel bars compromises both the safety and the serviceability of reinforced concrete (RC) structures. Consequently, reliable tools are required to estimate the detrimental effects of corrosion on the structural response of RC members subjected to transverse loads.

From section to structure: Assessing the impact of localized corrosion on reinforced concrete beams
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract The structural behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) elements affected by localized corrosion represents a major challenge for ensuring structural safety and for the proper design of strengthening interventions. The effects of localized corrosion on the flexural behavior of RC beams remain a topic of debate within the scientific community.

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.

Mineral Oil‐Induced Ageing Characteristics of Aluminium Nitride‐Doped Silicone Rubber Nanocomposites
High Voltage, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Room temperature vulcanised (RTV) silicone rubber, commonly used as an external insulating coating on ceramic bushings of oil‐immersed transformers, undergoes significant degradation when exposed to mineral oil under harsh environmental conditions.

Journal of Religious History, EarlyView.Abstract This article argues that W. E. B. Du Bois grounded his seminal conceptualisation of “the Negro church” in a Pan‐Africanist challenge to how Christian reformers and missionaries' usage of “Darkest Africa” as a metaphor for modern urban vice and poverty denigrated Africa and the African diaspora while promoting a segregated, imperialist version ...

Fatigue Strength Analysis of a Cladded Steel Subjected to Tensile Predeformation
Fatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Cladded steels are a subset of layered metal composites in which a thin functional layer is bonded to a dissimilar substrate, thereby integrating the benefits of both constituent materials. However, the resulting heterogeneous properties of such layered metal composites collectively complicate deformation and fatigue behavior, making reliable ...
