Hidden Costs of Ethical Fashion: Sustainable Development Goals and Garment Worker Exploitation in Bangladesh

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Across garment factories in the Global South, the promise of “ethical fashion” coexists with poverty wages and retaliation. This study examines why the global call for decent work has not improved labor conditions in Bangladesh's ready‐made garment industry.

Ultrahigh Stiffness and Energy Absorption Properties of Isotropic Metallic Closed Cell Microlattices

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
True closed cell microlattices without holes are fabricated for the first time using a novel Laser Sheet Fusion additive manufacturing technique. These microlattices exhibited isotropy in stiffness and surprisingly, strength and plasticity as well, despite orientation‐dependent failure mechanisms. Furthermore, material work hardening is shown to be key

Insights Into Paint‐Bake Toughening of Resistance Spot Welds of a 2.0 GPa Warm‐Stamped Medium‐Mn Steel

open access: yessteel research international, EarlyView.
Paint baking of resistance spot welded joints of 2.0 GPa warm‐stamped medium‐Mn steel activates low‐temperature tempering, forming fine cementite in the fusion zone and enhancing toughness. Crack propagation resistance increases, shifting the failure mode from partial interfacial to complete pullout, with peak load and energy absorption rising ...

Experimental investigation of reinforced concrete members subjected to reversed cyclic axial loading

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper presents an experimental campaign of five reinforced concrete members subjected to cyclic axial loading alternating between tension and compression. Fiber optical sensors and digital image correlation, in combination with automated crack detection and measurement, were used to investigate, among other aspects, the development of ...

Performance enhancement of reinforced concrete columns using stainless steel and galvanized steel plates: Experimental and numerical investigation

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study introduces an innovative approach to strengthening defected reinforced concrete (RC) columns using externally bonded stainless steel and galvanized steel plates. Unlike conventional strengthening methods, this technique replaces traditional transverse stirrups with steel sheets, providing enhanced confinement and ductility.
