Anti‐Slip Material‐Based Strategies and Approaches

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This review highlights the principle mechanisms of slipping at the microscale, linking contact mechanics with a friction behavior model for surface interfaces. Main strategies to develop anti‐slip properties to the surfaces are discussed alongside standardized testing approaches.

Deterioration and Cracking in Reinforced Concrete Bridges

open access: yes, 2021
Reinforced concrete structures are subjected to several sources of deterioration that can cause a progressive reduction in performance. Among the existing infrastructure typologies, reinforced concrete half-joint bridges are particularly critical. This common structural configuration is characterised by a reduction in depth at the supports.

Highly Anisotropic Quasi‐Direct Organic Metal Halide Hybrids: A Platform for Polarization‐Sensitive Optoelectronics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
One‐dimensional C4N2H14PbBr4 is shown to have a quasi‐direct electronic band structure and strongly anisotropic transport with polarized broadband emission. A GW/Bethe–Salpeter excited‐state force formalism, supported by polarized Raman and temperature‐dependent photoluminescence, identifies low–frequency Pb–Br phonons that drive ultrafast exciton self‐

Study on Repaired Earthquake-Damaged Bridge Piers under Seismic Load

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2015
The concrete bridge pier damaged during earthquakes need be repaired to meet the design standards. Steel tube as a traditional material or FRP as a novel material has become popular to repair the damaged reinforced concrete (RC) bridge piers.
