Colloidal Behavior of Carbonate Particles Microbially Precipitated in Microfluidic Droplets

Small, EarlyView.
In Microbially Induced Calcium Carbonate Precipitation (MICP), ureolytic bacteria trigger calcium carbonate precipitation via pH‐increasing urea hydrolysis. This enzymatically driven reaction induces the colloidal assembly of bacteria and carbonate particles into fractal networks.

Multi‐level fatigue reliability assessment of reinforced concrete railway bridges

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper presents a multi‐level reliability framework for assessing the fatigue life of reinforced concrete (RC) railway trough bridges subjected to cyclic loading. The framework incorporates increasing levels of analytical complexity and real‐world data in four steps. First, an analytical model applies S–N curves and the Palmgren–Miner rule

Influence of mix design method on the shear capacity of reinforced concrete beams made with high‐quality recycled coarse aggregate

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the shear capacity behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) beams without stirrups incorporating recycled coarse aggregate (RCA). An extensive database comprising 269 experimental data points from 40 journal articles published between 2001 and 2025 was compiled, excluding specimens with recycled fine aggregate or fiber ...

Structural capacity of precast concrete walls with openings: A parametric study on connection types and reinforcement ratios

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The structural role of precast concrete walls with openings is often overlooked in design practice due to concerns about reduced stiffness, stress concentration, cracking around openings, and potential unexpected failure modes under seismic loading.

Assessment of seismic performance of low-rise reinforced concrete frame structures with masonry infill using fragility curves [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences
The seismic performance of reinforced concrete frame structures with masonry infill is a critical area of study due to the complex interactions between the infill and the structural frame during seismic events.

Exploring the potential of Textile Reinforced Concrete for corrosion‐insensitive retaining walls

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract In a context where durability concerns, particularly the corrosion of steel reinforcement, remain a critical challenge for conventional reinforced concrete structures under severe exposure, Textile Reinforced Concrete (TRC) is emerging as a promising alternative.

Kinematics‐based model for shear capacity assessment of unreinforced interior beam–column joints

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study presents a kinematics‐based model for assessing the shear strength of reinforced concrete interior beam–column joints without transverse reinforcement. The proposed framework is built on first principles—kinematics, equilibrium, and constitutive relations—and explicitly models discrete cracks by introducing kinematic parameters such

A Novel Approach to Monitoring the Performance of Carbon-Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Retrofitting in Reinforced Concrete Beam–Column Joints

Applied Sciences
Due to insufficient transverse reinforcement, the retrofitting of beam–column joints (BCJs) in existing reinforced concrete (RC) frame structures is commonly required to alter their brittle behavior.

Mechanical, rheological, and durability performances of GGBS‐based concrete for potential application to prestressed structures

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Ground granulated blast‐furnace slag (GGBS) is a widely used clinker substitute in concrete, recognized for its potential to significantly reduce environmental impacts. However, its application in prestressed concrete remains limited in several countries, mainly due to concerns regarding early‐age mechanical performance and long‐term ...

Structural behavior of small square steel tubes reinforced self‐compacting concrete columns under biaxial eccentric loads

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract In this study, the structural behavior of small square steel tube‐reinforced self‐compacting concrete (SSTR‐SCC) columns is investigated under symmetric and asymmetric biaxial eccentric loads. Twelve specimens were cast and tested under biaxial eccentric loads.
