Comparative evaluation of Schmidt hammer test procedures for prediction of rocks strength [PDF]
International Journal of Mining and Geo-Engineering, 2018 Uniaxial compressive and Brazilian tensile strengths (UCS and BTS) of rocks are considered important properties in the design of most the geotechnical projects that interact with rock such as slope stability and underground excavation.

Case Studies in Construction Materials, 2023 In the field of rock engineering, uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) is a crucial mechanical parameter that cannot be ignored. Due to the difficulty in obtaining high-quality rock core samples in some projects, it is essential to develop a reliable UCS ...

Calibration and Reliability of the Rebound (Schmidt) Hammer Test [PDF]
Civil Engineering and Architecture, 2013 One of the most widely spread techniques to estimate the compressive strength of concrete is the rebound hammer test, also known as Schmidt Hammer test. In spite of a large number of scientific works trying to calibrate the test, to identify the parameters affecting its results and to estimate its reliability, the original Schmidt curve is still ...

Crafting Colonial Companions: Zionist Botany in Palestine, 1900‐1930s**
Berichte zur Wissenschaftsgeschichte, EarlyView.In the early twentieth century, agricultural research played an important role in the Zionist movement's efforts to increase Palestine's productivity and to facilitate large‐scale Jewish settlement. Recent historiography has started to recognize the importance of agronomists and botanists as central actors in the broader project of Jewish‐Zionist ...

Drivers of Scope 3 Emissions Disclosure Quality—CDP Analysis
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Scope 3 emissions account for a significant portion of a supply chain's carbon footprint, yet very little research explores the key drivers of high‐quality Scope 3 disclosures. Additionally, while climate governance is a vital part of both improving carbon performance and ensuring corporate accountability, its broader impact on disclosure ...

Consumer Adoption of Internet of Things
Journal of Consumer Behaviour, Volume 24, Issue 2, Page 673-693, March 2025.ABSTRACT The Internet of Things (IoT), a pivotal technology in enhancing user connectivity, faces a paradox: its widespread potential yet limited consumer adoption. This study addresses this dichotomy by synthesizing a large‐scale meta‐analytic structural equation modeling (MASEM) and hierarchical linear meta‐analysis (HiLMA) of 2736 effect sizes from ...
