Fracture of the Passive Film on Reinforcing Steel in Concrete Under Mechanical Loading

open access: yesMaterials and Corrosion, EarlyView.
Bending load induces a flexural crack in reinforced concrete specimen. Above the critical load inducing crack, a macro cell corrosion current is recorded by steel coupons embedded in the concrete. The macro cell current corresponds to the rupture of the passive film. ABSTRACT This study investigates the fracture of the passive film on reinforcing steel

The Combined Finite/Discrete Element Method in Transient Dynamics of Reinforced Concrete Structures under Blast Loading

open access: yes, 2004
PhDThe research here presented has employed the newly evolved finite-discrete element method in the development of novel numerical solutions for the analysis of failure and collapse of reinforced concrete structures under hazardous blast loads.

Fractional Moment Theory for Anomalous Transport: A Unified Framework for Lévy Flights, Fractals, and Complex Dynamical Systems

open access: yesMathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We develop a unified mathematical framework extending classical moment theory from discrete integer orders to a continuous spectrum of real orders f>0$$ f>0 $$, providing a systematic statistical characterization of complex systems exhibiting power‐law behavior.

Polymaterial Lattice Discrete Particle Model for the Optimization of Lightweight Aggregate Concrete: Intragranular Fracture and Compression Behavior

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lightweight aggregate concrete (LWAC) offers clear advantages for sustainable construction, including reduced density and improved thermal insulation. However, its mechanical and fracture behavior is difficult to characterize due to the heterogeneity and brittle crushing of porous lightweight aggregates.

Debonding mechanisms of fibre reinforced polymer strengthened steel members.

open access: yes, 2011
Applying Fibre Reinforce Polymer (FRP) to steel structures has been proved to be an effective method of strengthening. Experimentally, ageing steel structures such as bridge decks and composite beams which have been strengthened with FRP have shown ...

A Review of Mechanical Reinforcement and Piezoresistive Self‐Sensing in Carbon Nanotube Fiber Composites

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
PSPP‐TRL mapping of CNT‐modified CFRP literature, with four recurring confusions resolved and five scale‐up problems quantified. ABSTRACT Carbon nanotube‐modified fiber composites are often presented as a route to stronger, tougher, and self‐sensing structural materials.

In Situ Curing‐Enabled 3D Printing of Continuous Fiber‐Reinforced Thermosetting Composites

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
In situ curing‐enabled the 3D printing of continuous fiber/thermoset composites, which were reviewed. Particularly, four types of in situ curing, were discussed, including Radiation‐induced curing, photothermal curing, electrothermal curing, and frontal polymerization. AI‐integrated printing was also analyzed.

Cracking and tension field action in composite beams [PDF]

open access: yes
Two aspects of the behaviour of uncased composite 'T' beams of steel and concrete are considered. Flexural cracking in the reinforced concrete slab was studied by subjecting seven 350-mm deep composite beams to hogging bending moment.

Salvage Androgen Deprivation Therapy Use After Definitive Radiotherapy With vs Without Androgen Deprivation Therapy in Prostate Cancer

open access: yesThe Prostate, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background For patients with unfavorable intermediate or high risk localized prostate cancer receiving definitive radiotherapy, androgen deprivation therapy reduces recurrence and improves survival but is underutilized due to toxicity concerns. Patients who forgo initial ADT may later require salvage ADT.
