The effect of joint width between blocks in concrete block pavement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Jointing sand is the main component of concrete block pavement (CBP) that promotes load transfer between blocks. Often, when sands are available from various sources, it becomes a difficult task to judge the right source of sand.

Ultrathin, Stretchable, and 3D‐Printable Complementary Nanotubes–Polymer Composites for Multimodal Radiation Shielding in Extreme Environments

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A 3D‐printable dual‐mode radiation shielding material is introduced by combining boron nitride nanotubes and single‐walled carbon nanotubes in a stretchable PDMS matrix. The complementary nanotube network enables simultaneous attenuation of electromagnetic interference and neutron radiation while maintaining lightweight, mechanical resilience, and ...

Ion‑Mediated Structural Engineering of Hydrogel Interfaces for Tunable Mechanical and Analyte Diffusion Properties in Electrochemical Biosensors

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
An ion‐mediated structural engineering strategy enables versatile modulation of PVA–Alginate hydrogel microstructure. We systematically examine how different ion combinations affect hydrogel mechanical properties and analyte diffusivity. Applying this novel strategy to hydrogel as the outer membrane in an electrochemical glucose biosensor allows ...
