FRP strengthening of shear walls with openings [PDF]
, 2011 Concrete shear walls are one of the main lateral resisting members in buildings. The functional requirements like architectural and even mechanical requirements entail that openings have to be installed in structural walls as well as floors. In this study, nonlinear static analysis was utilized to study the effects of fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) on ...

A Systematic Comparison of Alpha‐Synuclein Seed Amplification Assays for Increasing Reproducibility
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Seed amplification assays (SAAs) enable ultrasensitive detection of misfolded α‐synuclein across biofluids and tissues. Yet, heterogeneity in protocols limits cross‐study comparability and clinical translation. Here, we review α‐synuclein SAA methods and their performance across various biological matrices.

Punching shear behavior of LWA bubble deck slab with different types of shear reinforcement
Journal of King Saud University: Engineering Sciences, 2021 Punching shear is the most important problem in flat slabs, which usually requires strengthening for safety reasons. One of the most popular strengthening methods is the employment of shear reinforcement. Also, in order to reduce the self-weight of slabs,

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.It is shown that laser ablation pretreatment under oxygen‐free conditions enables copper–aluminium bonding at significantly lower deformation degrees and improved properties compared to mechanical brushing. Laser ablation further increases interface contact area and induces favourable residual stress states and microstructural compatibility ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Creep experiments at 900°C on coarse‐grained steel‐ceramic composites containing recycled magnesia reveal that higher ceramic volume fractions significantly enhance the creep resistance. Detailed EBSD investigations identify subgrain formation in the steel matrix as the dominant deformation mechanism.
