Punching shear strengthening of flat slabs: CFRP and shear reinforcement

open access: yes, 2015
Punching in slabs is usually associated to the application of concentrated loads or to the presence of columns. One of the main concerns related to flat slabs is its punching shear capacity at slabcolumn connection, which is subjected to a very complex three-dimensional stress state.

Conformal Coating and Transfer of 2D Nanomaterials via Dynamic Interface Engineering

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This review discusses conformal coating and transfer of two‐dimensional (2D) nanomaterials with a focus on dynamic interface engineering. By actively regulating nanosheet transport and interfacial contact during film formation, recent dynamic coating strategies overcome the limitations of conventional passive approaches and enable geometry‐adaptive ...

A Critical Review on the Evolution of Chitosan‐Based Injectable Hydrogels in Bone Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
The graphical illustration depicts hydrogel formulation using chitosan and biocompatible cross‐linkers, major advantages, and incorporation of cells, osteoinductive factors, and therapeutic drugs. Following injection, pH‐responsive gelation enables controlled drug release, promotes cell recruitment and osteogenic differentiation, enhances extracellular

Leveraging Mechanical Resonances for the Selection of Promising Materials in Complex Phase Spaces

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A central challenge in materials science is the design of new functional materials with enhanced performance for targeted applications. This paper demonstrates that “listening” to materials through measuring their mechanical resonances is a rich, and largely untapped, platform for the rapid identification of promising novel compounds and a powerful ...

Strengthening of RC flat slabs against punching shear with GFRP laminates adopting a hybrid technique

open access: yesEngineering and Applied Science Research, 2023
Punching shear failure at the slab-column connection is one of the foremost concerns associated with reinforced concrete (RC) flat slabs. Many strengthening techniques of existing RC flat slabs against punching shear failure have been developed, one of ...

Liquid Crystal Elastomer Actuator Matrix for Large Area Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A scalable approach is used to manufacture a digitally‐controllable, 2D 5 × 5 actuator matrix. The elements of the matrix are produced by direct ink writing of a liquid crystal elastomer ‘artificial muscle’ on large‐area flexible thin‐film heaters. In optimizing the low‐power actuators, multiple heater designs and substrate materials are investigated ...
