Predicting Concrete Compressive Strength and Modulus of Rupture Using Different NDT Techniques

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2014
Quality tests applied to hydraulic concrete such as compressive, tension, and bending strength are used to guarantee proper characteristics of materials. All these assessments are performed by destructive tests (DTs).

Plastic luminescence in mechanoluminescent composites

InfoMat, EarlyView.
Through compression tests and numerical simulations, this study demonstrates that the luminescence of a mechanoluminescent (ML) composite is strongly associated with plastic strain, thereby providing new insight into deformation‐induced luminescence during the plastic stage.

A Framework for Subgroup Dynamics Through the System Dynamics Lens: An Integrative Review of the Attribute and the Network Views

Journal of Organizational Behavior, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Subgroups are dynamic entities evolving constantly in response to changing contexts and time. Although scholars from both the attribute and the network views have acknowledged that subgroups are inherently complex and fluid, research in these traditions has remained bifurcated, with limited efforts to integrate the two perspectives to more ...

Support at Work, Capitalization at Home: The Interpersonal Effects of Family‐Supportive Supervisor Behaviors

Journal of Organizational Behavior, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Family‐supportive supervisor behaviors (FSSBs) have been widely recognized for helping employees navigate work–family demands. Yet, it remains unclear whether the benefits of FSSB extend beyond the workplace to enrich supervisors themselves and their partners at home.

Shared foraging behaviors between hyenas and hominins in the Middle Paleolithic Levant: New evidence from Geula Cave, Israel

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While competition with large carnivores is likely to have shaped Middle Paleolithic hominins' subsistence behavior, palimpsested human and carnivore accumulations render the signal challenging to isolate. This study presents a detailed zooarchaeological and taphonomic analysis of a non‐anthropogenic faunal assemblage from a MIS 5 (~130–80 ka ...
