Towards the design of a kid’s music organizer [PDF]
, 2008 In this paper, we investigate how young children aged 2 to 5 interact with music and their family's music collections. By going into their homes, interviewing them and their parents and observing the children performing a range of music-related tasks, we

Structural Properties of Lightweight Rubberized Concrete
, 2019 Light-weight concrete is a common filler and insulation material with potential applications in floor, roof and wall panel systems. This paper proposes a new Lightweight Rubber Concrete (LWRC) with improved dynamic properties through adding crumb rubber particles into conventional EPS (Expanded Polystyrene Ball) concrete.

Effect of Rubber Heat Treatment on Rubberized-Concrete Mechanical Performance
Journal of Composites Science, 2022 To eliminate the unfavorable effect of the accumulation of end-of-life car tires on the environment, many studies have been conducted to recycle those tires in concrete as a partial or full replacement of its natural aggregates. However, the produced rubberized concrete suffers from low compressive strength due to low adhesion at the rubber/cement ...

Physical performance and durability evaluation of rubberized concrete [PDF]
, 2014 The main objective of this research is to develop rubberized concrete with achievable structural strength using simple mix design. Simple mix design is a description by using the crumb rubber, used as in condition just received from the plant without

Effect of Rubber Tyre Granules on Concrete Strength and the Microstructure Characteristics of Rubberized Concrete [PDF]
Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2015 The influence of using rubber tyre granules (RTG) as aggregates on the strength of concrete and microstructure characteristics of rubberized concrete was investigated in this study. Mix proportion of cement: sand: aggregate: superplasticizer; 1:1.5:1.7:0.003 and 0.47 water cement ratio (w/c) was used.

Liquids as Reinforcements for Anisotropic and Tough Soft Matter Composites
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Liquid metal droplets are shaped and oriented within soft elastomers to create all‐soft matter composites with programmable mechanical anisotropy. These liquid inclusions act as fiber‐like reinforcements, enabling directional stiffness, enhanced toughness, and controlled crack steering under extreme deformation, offering new routes to resilient soft ...

Anti‐Slip Material‐Based Strategies and Approaches
Advanced 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.

Properties and durability of concrete containing polymeric wastes (tyre rubber and polyethylene terephthalate bottles): an overview [PDF]
, 2012 The volume of polymeric wastes like tyre rubber and polyethylene terephthalate bottles (PET) is increasing at a fast rate. An estimated 1000 million tyres reach the end of their useful lives every year and 5000 millions more are expected to be discarded
