SEISMIC PERFORMANCE OF RUBBERIZED CONCRETE IN STRUCTURAL APPLICATIONS
2nd Croatian Conference on Earthquake Engineering ‒ 2CroCEE, 2023 Rubberized concrete is a promising material for the structural elements, created by replacing sand with rubber particles in order to significantly reduce environmental impacts from large tyre waste with improved behaviour under earthquake loads. Experimental studies on nine columns and three frames were carried out in order to determine the capacity ...

Numerical Analysis of Precast Rubberized Lightweight Concrete Wall Panel [PDF]
, 2021 Precast concrete wall panels are common prefabricated building components used to replace conventional burnt clay bricks as non-load bearing walls. Recent researches focused on lightweight concrete wall panel due to its low density which would lead to ...

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Drawing inspiration from the layered hard‐soft architecture found in sea sponges, this work establishes a new framework for architected cementitious composites (ACC) through multi‐material additive manufacturing (MMAM) process. The integration of mortar and elastomer phases into layered architectures enables synergistic toughening mechanisms, including

Collision‐Resilient Winged Drones Enabled by Tensegrity Structures
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Based on structures of birds such as the woodpeck, this article presents the collision‐resilient aerial robot, SWIFT. SWIFT leverages tensegrity structures in the fuselage and wings which allow it to undergo large deformations in a crash, without sustaining damage. Experiments show that SWIFT can reduce impact forces by 70% over conventional structures.
