The effect of construction joints on the flexural bending capacity of singly reinforced beams

Case Studies in Construction Materials, 2016
The main purpose of conducting this study is to determine the difference in the bending capacity between a singly reinforced monolithic beam and a singly reinforced beam with a construction joint at the beam center, for a range of different compressive ...

Architecture‐Driven Functional Coupling in Vertically Aligned Nanocomposites

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Vertically aligned nanocomposites define a growth‐engineered architecture in which vertical interfaces, strain fields, defect pathways, and phase connectivity are created simultaneously. This review shows how these architectural features couple ferroic, optical, ionic, electrochemical, and device responses, establishing design rules and open challenges

Behaviour of GFRP rebars reinforced concrete elements under elevated temperature and fire [PDF]

, 2003
PhDIn general, it is expected that concrete structures using Glass Fibre Reinforced Plastic (GFRP) rebars as reinforcement could have improved durability compared to normal steel reinforcement because of the corrosion resistance of the rebar. However,

Flax Composites With Improved Interfacial Strength Through Microbially Induced Mineral Precipitation

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A bio‐inspired biomineralization strategy introduces an additional hierarchy to flax fiber composites. By controlling microbe‐mediated mineral particle deposition through tuned salt concentrations, stress transfer within the natural fiber composite is enhanced.

Calculation of Cracks in Partially Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete Beams with BFRP Bars

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2022
The effects of steel fiber volume rate and steel fiber concrete thickness on the crack development and crack resistance of basalt fiber reinforced polymer (BFRP) beams were investigated by flexural tests on six partially reinforced BFRP steel fiber ...

Influence of section depth on the structural behaviour of reinforced concrete continuous deep beams [PDF]

, 2007
YesAlthough the depth of reinforced concrete deep beams is much higher than that of slender beams, extensive existing tests on deep beams have focused on simply supported beams with a scaled depth below 600 mm.

Volatile Memristive Devices With Tunable Temporal Dynamics For Event‐Based Sensing

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Tunable volatile memristive devices can serve various neural‐inspired tasks that require different time windows of information retention. The ionic‐based volatility of the presented Pt/a‐STO/TaOx/Ta device stack can be reproducibly and controllably tuned in multiple ways.

Collision‐Resilient Winged Drones Enabled by Tensegrity Structures

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Based on structures of birds such as the woodpeck, this article presents the collision‐resilient aerial robot, SWIFT. SWIFT leverages tensegrity structures in the fuselage and wings which allow it to undergo large deformations in a crash, without sustaining damage. Experiments show that SWIFT can reduce impact forces by 70% over conventional structures.
