Acoustic Emission Study on the Damage Evolution of a Corroded Reinforced Concrete Column under Axial Loads

Crystals, 2021
In this paper, the damage of a reinforced concrete (RC) column with various levels of reinforcement corrosion under axial loads is characterized using the acoustic emission (AE) technique.

Innervation of the tubarial glands: A hypothesis‐driven anatomical review

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The tubarial glands have been described as a macroscopic bilateral glandular complex in the posterolateral nasopharynx near the torus tubarius and the pharyngeal opening of the Eustachian tube. Since their recognition on prostate‐specific membrane antigen‐based imaging, their anatomical classification has remained debated, with converging ...

Structural behaviour of Reinforced Concrete (RC) columns under fire

IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2019
Abstract The paper presents a numerical study on the response of RC columns under fire. The numerical studies deal with both: during fire (fire rating) scenario and after fire (residual) scenario. The results highlight the importance of Load-Induced-Thermal-Strains (LITS) for predicting the Fire Rating (FR) of RC columns.

Climate Change, Strategic Orientation, and Green Innovation: Unpacking External and Internal Drivers in Competitive Contexts

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Firms increasingly face political and societal pressures to pursue green strategies and sustainable innovation amid escalating climate change disruptions. Drawing upon contingency theory, institutional theory, and the natural resource‐based view, this article examines external (stakeholder pressures) and internal (environmental culture ...

Transforming Discourse, Transforming Practice: The Self‐Assessment Tool for Community Colleges

New Directions for Community Colleges, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Community college faculty remain largely invisible in national data and in tools designed for four‐year institutions. This study uses critical discourse analysis (CDA) to examine how a faculty diversity self‐assessment tool, originally built on Griffin's Institutional Model for Increasing Faculty Diversity for four‐year universities, was ...

Damage Source Identification of Reinforced Concrete Structure Using Acoustic Emission Technique

The Scientific World Journal, 2013
Acoustic emission (AE) technique is one of the nondestructive evaluation (NDE) techniques that have been considered as the prime candidate for structural health and damage monitoring in loaded structures.

Centering Relationships, Active Teaching, and Career Development in One STEM Teaching Practicum

New Directions for Community Colleges, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Broadening participation in STEM fields, particularly among underrepresented minority (URM) groups, has long been a national priority (AIR 2013; The Education Trust 2024). Community colleges—by virtue of their open access, diverse student populations, and teaching‐focused missions—are uniquely positioned to contribute to this effort.

Engineering Biochar‐Derived Functional Materials for High‐Performance Supercapacitors: Design Principles, Mechanisms, and Scalable Strategies

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biochar has emerged as a useful and adaptable source of carbon for supercapacitor electrodes. Its value comes from the way biomass chemistry, thermal conversion, and activation conditions shape the resulting pore network, surface groups, and degree of carbon ordering.
