Seismic Performances of Replaceable Steel Connection with Low Yield Point Metal
Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2015 Compared with the traditional steel rigid connection, the beam-column connections with weakened beam end have better ductility, but the local buckling in the weakened zone and the overall lateral deformation may occur in strong earthquake.

Experimental Investigation of MgAl-NO2 and MgAl-CO3 LDHs on Durability of Mortar and Concrete
Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2021 Two kinds of layered double hydroxides (LDHs), MgAl-NO2 (N-LDH) and MgAl-CO3 (C-LDH), were incorporated to study the durability of mortar and concrete. The LDH contents of mortar were 1%, 2%, and 4% by mass and the LDH contents of concrete were 0.5%, 1%,

Retrofitting Fat Metabolism [PDF]
Cell Metabolism, 2009 In this issue of Cell Metabolism, Liao and colleagues have applied a novel synthetic approach to fight obesity in animals by engineering the plant glyoxylate shunt in vivo (Dean et al., 2009). The idea of introducing an entirely foreign metabolic pathway opens up opportunities for understanding metabolism and creating novel potential therapeutic ...

Retrofitting Memory: Retrofitting a Non-Physical Architecture [PDF]
, 2021 <p>This project looks at how destroyed architecture, although physically lost, fundamentally continues to exist within human memories as a non-physical entity. The site chosen is Avonside Girls’ High School in Christchurch, New Zealand, a school heavily damaged during the February 22nd earthquake in 2011.
