Wider application of additions in self-compacting concrete [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Compared to normally vibrated concrete (NVC), self-compacting concrete (SCC) possesses enhanced qualities and improves productivity and working conditions due to the elimination of compaction.

Toward Perception‐Native Electronic Skin: Bio‐Inspired In‐/Near‐Sensor and Neuromorphic Computing for Humanoid Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Dense tactile streams from across the humanoid body converge on collide in a central wiring and data bottleneck. By relocating computation closer to and then into the skin itself, near‐ and in‐sensor architectures, together with neuromorphic computing, chart a path toward perception‐native electronic skin, in which the conversion of stimulus into ...

Sustainable Materials Design With Multi‐Modal Artificial Intelligence

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Critical mineral scarcity, high embodied carbon, and persistent pollution from materials processing intensify the need for sustainable materials design. This review frames the problem as multi‐objective optimization under heterogeneous, high‐dimensional evidence and highlights multi‐modal AI as an enabling pathway.

Transfer and Development Lengths of Steel Strands in Full-Scale Prestressed Self-Consolidating Concrete Bridge Girders [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Self-consolidating concrete (SCC) is a workable yet stable concrete which flows easily and consolidates under its own weight. Its unique properties can substantially reduce the labor required to pour complex or heavily reinforced structural members. Over

Influence of aggregate type on workability of self-consolidating lightweight concrete [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In this study, the effects of aggregate type on the workability of self-consolidating concrete produced with lightweight aggregate (self-consolidating lightweight concrete – SCLC) were investigated.

Flexoelectricity in Photoconversion: Fundamentals, Materials, and Outlooks

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Mechanical bending of a flexible cantilever induces a strain gradient in the photoactive material. The resulting flexoelectric field couples with photovoltaic and photoconductive effects, modulating charge generation, separation, and collection. A comparative analysis of oxide perovskites, halide perovskites, and two‐dimensional materials is presented,

Axial performance of self-consolidating concrete-filled fiber tubes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Concrete filled fiber tubes can be used to increase ductility and strength of a concrete member and self-consolidating concrete is an ideal material to use in practical applications of concrete-filled fiber tubular columns.

Recycled Concrete Aggregate in Self-Consolidating Concrete: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Mechanical Properties, RCA Pre-Treatment and Durability Behaviour

open access: yesRecycling
This systematic review and meta-analysis per PRISMA 2020 addresses the use of recycled concrete aggregates as a replacement for aggregates in self-consolidating concrete for structural and non-structural use. It provides a comprehensive evaluation of the

Multiferroic‐Centric Materials and Systems Engineering for Battery Applications: An Insight Into Mechanisms, Strategies, and Characterizations

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Multiferroic order parameters – polarization, magnetization, and ferroelastic strain – are positioned as dynamic design variables for batteries. Their mechanistic roles, practical tuning through fabrication and external fields, and ferroic‐resolved characterization routes are unified into a closed‐loop framework, revealing how coupled ferroic responses

Behaviour of Self-Consolidating Concrete Two Way Slabs Under Uniform Loading

open access: yesIraqi Journal of Civil Engineering, 2012
An experimental investigation was conducted to study the strength, behaviour, and deflection characteristics of two-way slabs made with self-consolidating concrete and conventional concrete. Six slabs were tested to failure under simply supported uniform
