Influence of section depth on the structural behaviour of reinforced concrete continuous deep beams [PDF]
, 2007 YesAlthough the depth of reinforced concrete deep beams is much higher than that of slender beams, extensive existing tests on deep beams have focused on simply supported beams with a scaled depth below 600 mm.

Environmental sensitivities of shallow-cumulus dilution – Part 2: Vertical wind profile [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2021 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.

Crystallographic preferred orientations of ice deformed in direct-shear experiments at low temperatures [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2019 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
Case Studies in Construction Materials, 2023 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]
The Cryosphere, 2022 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 ...
