Numerical Sensing of Plastic Hinge Regions in Concrete Beams with Hybrid (FRP and Steel) Bars
Fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP)-reinforced concrete members exhibit low ductility due to the linear-elastic behaviour of FRP materials. Concrete members reinforced by hybrid FRP–steel bars can improve strength and ductility simultaneously.

Plastic Hinge Length for Lightly Reinforced Rectangular Concrete Walls [PDF]
This research investigates the plastic hinge length in lightly reinforced rectangular walls typically found in regions of low-to-moderate seismicity. Poor performance has been exhibited by lightly reinforced concrete walls in past earthquake events. A series of finite element analyses have been carried out which demonstrate that if the longitudinal ...

Numerical model for investigating seismic performance of Prestressed Hollow Concrete (PHC) piles with Fiber section element [PDF]
In the medium to high seismic zone, prestressed hollow concrete (PHC) pile for structural foundation should be designed with elastic behavior due to low ductility and dissipated energy.

Study Of structural Behaviour And Residual Drift Of Concrete frames Reinforced With Shape Memory Alloy Rebar [PDF]
Buildings in high seismic regions are prone to severe damage and collapse during earthquakes due to large lateral deformations. The use of superelastic shape memory alloys (SMAs) as reinforcements in concrete structures is gradually gaining interest ...

Protocol for quantifying miRNA trafficking across the endosomal membrane
An in vitro protocol measures miRNA uptake into endosomes isolated from mammalian cell extracts, which are free of subcellular contaminants. Performed at 37 °C in the presence of ATP, it ensures the import of single‐stranded miRNA into the endosomal lumen.

Using 3D Digital Image Correlation (3D-DIC) to Measure CTOD in a Semi-Elliptical Surface Crack
The subsurface nature of Crack Tip Opening Displacement (CTOD) makes its direct measurement very difficult, if not impossible. During fracture toughness testing, CTOD is commonly calculated by applying a plastic hinge model using externally applied clip ...
