Effects of hybrid polyethylene terephthalate fibre and fly ash on mechanical properties of concrete

Materials Research Express, 2022
Cracked concrete is a problem due to several factors such as poor maintenance, insufficient reinforcement or steel corrosion leading to crack propagation. There is a need to increase the load-bearing capacity of concrete and increase its life span.

Application Of Schmidt Hammer Rebound Test For Weathering Profile Classification Of Granite, Paya Terubong, Penang, Malaysia

Warta Geologi, 2022
Weathering profile characterization is one of the significant information in the interpretation of the condition of rock. In addition, the tropical climate in Malaysia causes the deep–seated weathering phenomena of granitic rock.

Cross Kingdom Metabolic Engineering Paradigm Elevating Sustainable Protein Production

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Confronting the dual crisis of escalating global protein demand and unsustainable agriculture necessitates transformative solutions. Here, we pioneer evolutionary insights from maize nitrogen optimization via asparagine synthetase (ASNS) to rewire metabolism in Pichia pastoris.

Corals and Reef‐Dwelling Fish Regulate Carbon Storage and Cycling Processes in Coral Reef Ecosystems

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Coral reefs are biodiversity hotspots, yet their role in carbon storage and cycling remains poorly understood. Using field surveys and modeling in the South China Sea, we reveal the overlooked potential of carbon storage in reef ecosystems and how reef fish, corals, and surface sediment jointly shape reef carbon reservoirs.

Pull Off test to evaluate the compressive strength of concrete: an alternative to Brazilian standard techniques

Revista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais
To estimate the compressive strength of concrete is necessary in many reinforced concrete structures inspection works. In Brazil, the standard tests for this purpose are: Compressive test in drilled cores, rebound hammer test and ultrasonic test.

Comparison of the inherent variability in rebound hammer tests performed with different testing instruments

Epitoanyag - Journal of Silicate Based and Composite Materials, 2013
The rebound hammer test of concrete can provide an alternative to drilled core tests for estimating the in-situ compressive strength of concrete. The variability of concrete strength is recognised during the strength assessment and the design strength of concrete is specified as its characteristic compressive strength by taking the variability of the ...

Microsphere‐Modulated Sensing‐in‐Energy Supercapacitor With Self‐Filtering Ultra‐Large Signal Under High‐g Shocks

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
To overcome severe signal oscillation under extreme impact conditions, this work presents a Sensing‐in‐Energy microdevice which integrates a MEMS inertial structure directly within a supercapacitor electrolyte cavity. Utilizing shock‐driven transient contact and electrolyte damping for signal self‐filtering, it achieves weak‐oscillation, large ...

COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS AND EVALUATION OF THE CONVERSION FORMULA FOR REBOUND NUMBER OF SCHMIDT HAMMER TEST AND UNCONFINED COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH TEST – CASE STUDY: ANDESITE ROCK SLOPE IN GRAHA PUSPA, LEMBANG FAULT

Rudarsko-geološko-naftni Zbornik
The Unconfined Compressive Strength (UCS) test is one of the most common methods for determining the rock material strength value. However, the size and complexity of the instrument do not allow UCS testing to be carried out in the field.
