Reinforced Concrete Corbels Shear Test: The Triangular-Truss Method Evaluation
In this paper, five reinforced concrete double-corbel specimens with the same designed bearing capacity are produced according to the triangular-truss method (TTM) in GB 50010-2010.

Effect of Shear Span-Depth Ratio on Shear Strength of Porcelanite Lightweight Aggregate Reinforced Concrete Deep Beams Strengthened by Externally Bonded CFRP Strips [PDF]
This paper presents an experimental investigation of structural behaviour of reinforced concrete deep beams strengthened in shear by CFRP strips. The experimental program consisted of fabricating, casting and testing of nine identical porcelainte ...

Environmental sensitivities of shallow-cumulus dilution – Part 2: Vertical wind profile [PDF]
This second part of a numerical study on shallow-cumulus dilution focuses on the sensitivity of cloud dilution to changes in the vertical wind profile. Insights are obtained through large-eddy simulations of maritime and continental cloud fields.

Numerical Investigation on Flow Separation Control of Low Reynolds Number Sinusoidal Aerofoils [PDF]
The paper presents a computational analysis of the characteristics of a NACA 634- 021 aerofoil incorporated with sinusoidal leading-edge protuberances at Re = 14,000. The protuberances are characterized by an amplitude and wavelength of 12% and 50% of

Crystallographic preferred orientations of ice deformed in direct-shear experiments at low temperatures [PDF]
Synthetic polycrystalline ice was sheared at temperatures of −5, −20 and −30 ∘C, to different shear strains, up to γ=2.6, equivalent to a maximum stretch of 2.94 (final line length is 2.94 times the original length).

Shear behavior of externally prestressed UHPC beams without stirrups
Shear stirrups in a prestressed ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) beam might be eliminated due to the high tensile strength of UHPC. This research aims to investigate shear behavior of the externally prestressed UHPC beams without stirrups. Thirteen

Ultrasonic and seismic constraints on crystallographic preferred orientations of the Priestley Glacier shear margin, Antarctica [PDF]
Crystallographic preferred orientations (CPOs) are particularly important in controlling the mechanical properties of glacial shear margins. Logistical and safety considerations often make direct sampling of shear margins difficult, and geophysical ...

Shear Layer and Wave Structure Over Partially Spanning Cavities
Study of the wave structure and shear layer in the vicinity of a wall mounted cavity is done by time averaged colour schlieren and time resolved instantaneous shadowgraph technique in an M=1.7 flowfield. Effect of change of cavity width on flow structure is investigated by using constant length to depth (L/D) ratio cavity models with varying length to ...
