Damage Estimation of a Concrete Pier When Exposed to Extreme Flood and Debris Loading
The structural safety and serviceability during extreme weather, such as floods and storms, is critical. Due to global warming in the last decades, the increase in the intensity of natural disasters, i.e., flood loading and the durability of the road ...

Switchable Hyperbolic Metamaterials With Magnetic Control
A switchable hyperbolic material (SHM) is investigated, with which one can turn on or off the hyperbolic dispersion of the material via magnetic control.

Halo-independent tests of dark matter annual modulation signals [PDF]
I derive new halo-independent lower bounds on the product of the dark matter-nucleon scattering cross section and the local dark matter density that are valid for annual modulations of dark matter direct detection signals. They are obtained by making use

Microwire-Based Sensor Array for Measuring Wheel Loads of Vehicles
In this paper, a magnetic microwire-based sensor array embedded under the pavement is proposed as a weighing system at customs ports of entry. This sensor is made of a cementitious material suitable for embedding within the core of concrete structures ...

A Methodological Framework for Structural Reliability Assessment of Marine Structural Elements
The aim of this paper is to provide a robust framework to assist researchers in deciding which methods to use, depending on the problem at hand, in order to estimate the probability of failure of marine structural parts that are subjected to variable ...

We developed a fully human 3D tonsil cell culture system incorporating supportive stromal cells that better sustains and activates immune cells than conventional methods. The model generates stronger, more targeted antibody responses to viral antigens and vaccines, providing a physiologically relevant and entirely human platform for studying immune ...

Development of probability of detection data for structural health monitoring damage detection techniques based on acoustic emission [PDF]
Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) techniques have been developed as a cost effective alternative to currently adopted Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) methods which have well understood levels of performance. Quantitative performance assessment, as used in

Drawing inspiration from the layered hard‐soft architecture found in sea sponges, this work establishes a new framework for architected cementitious composites (ACC) through multi‐material additive manufacturing (MMAM) process. The integration of mortar and elastomer phases into layered architectures enables synergistic toughening mechanisms, including
