Nonlinear finite element analysis of reinforced concrete beams strengthened with textile fine grained mortar [PDF]
Nowadays, there was an increasing need of repairing and upgrading the reinforced concrete (RC) structure due to the deterioration of the structure. The fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) was commonly used for structural retrofitting purposes.

Damage identification of a reinforced concrete frame by finite element model updating using damage parameterization [PDF]
This paper develops a sensitivity-based updating method to identify the damage in a tested reinforced concrete (RC) frame modeled with a two-dimensional planar finite element (FE) by minimizing the discrepancies of modal frequencies and mode shapes.

Stacked nanoflake assembly (SNA) membranes can oscillate autonomously, offering opportunities for soft actuation and energy harvesting. This work uncovers the physical mechanism behind the sustained oscillation of SNA membranes in gradient humidity and identifies three governing dimensionless parameters, enabling rational design for optimizing SNA ...

Optimization of liquid crystal devices based on weakly conductive layers for lensing and beam steering [PDF]
Liquid crystals are mostly known for their use in displays, but over the past decade these materials have been applied in a number of other devices such as tunable lenses or beam steering devices.

The gas‐phase decomposition of Al(acac)3 is investigated under inert, oxygen, and water‐containing conditions. Water is found to promote selective ligand removal and suppress hydrocarbon formation, while oxygen induces faster, less selective decomposition pathways.

Experimental Study on Shear Capacity of RC Beams Strengthened With Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer Mandated by ACIi 440 [PDF]
Shear reinforcement for retrofitting a reinforced concrete (RC) beam using unidirectional Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) woven can only be applied on the beam web below the concrete floor slab.

Theoretical assessment of progressive collapse capacity of reinforced concrete structures [PDF]
The progressive collapse behaviour of reinforced concrete (RC) structures requires consideration of material and geometric non-linearity, concrete crushing and rebar fracture.

Mechanical Stress Evolution in Polycrystalline Ge Thin Films Under MeV Ion Irradiation
Irradiation of polycrystalline Ge thin films with 1.8 MeV Au ions alters residual stress through defect generation and lattice expansion. Increasing fluence drives progressive lattice disorder and eventual amorphization. Polycrystalline Ge resists amorphization longer than crystalline Ge, as grain boundaries facilitate defect diffusion, significantly ...

Topological Point Defects in SmC* Liquid Crystals Under Mechanical Disturbance
Tangetial air jet shear inducess island formation and nucleates topological point defects in uniform SmC films. Island bounded by edge dislocation loops shrink and transform into isolated point defects under continued shear. Mechanical perturbatio provides a controllable route for defect engineering in smectric liquid crystal thin films.
