Does Bernoulli’s Hypothesis Apply to Differential Shrinkage Problems?

open access: yes, 2007
Differential shrinkage - shrinkage difference between an old concrete substrate and a new-cast concrete overlay - causes stresses of substantial magnitude in repaired concrete structures.

Influence of geometry on creep and moisture movement of clay, calcium silicate and concrete masonry [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
This investigation involved creep and moisture movement measurements for about six months on 13-course clay (Engineering class B) and calcium silicate brickwork, and 5-course concrete blockwork, consecutively.

Interfacial Adsorption Engineering Enables a Highly Utilized Zinc Anode With 99.9% Coulombic Efficiency

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
When hydrated zinc ions are deposited onto Cu substrates at practical current densities, the modified Cu enables simultaneously compact zinc growth and suppressed hydrogen evolution. This regulatory effect originates from the superior adsorption of the modified Cu interface, which enhances zincophilicity and the hydrogen desorption barrier, thereby ...

Shrinkage characteristics of lime concretion black soil as affected by biochar amendment

open access: yes, 2018
Studies have reported that biochar is a sustainable amendment that improves the chemical and physical properties of soil. In this study, an incubation experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of different application rates of biochar on the ...

3D Printing Innovations in Polymeric Porous and Patterned Architecture

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Polymeric foams occupy a unique structural space between dense solids and open networks, where engineered void fraction governs mechanical compliance, thermal resistance, and mass transport. Additive manufacturing now enables precise spatial control over cellular architecture, unlocking designer foam structures across applications spanning crash ...

Shrinkage priors for nonparametric Bayesian prediction of nonhomogeneous Poisson processes

open access: yes, 2020
A class of improper priors for nonhomogeneous Poisson intensity functions is proposed. The priors in the class have shrinkage properties. The nonparametric Bayesian predictive densities based on the shrinkage priors have reasonable properties, although ...

A Dual‐Functional Electrolyte Additive for Highly Reversible Zinc‐Ion Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) as a dual‐function additive for aqueous zinc‐ion batteries. TBAB disrupts the hydrogen‐bond network of water while TBA+ adsorbs on Zn to improve interfacial wettability and regulate Zn2+ flux, resulting in suppressed dendrite growth and parasitic reactions. This synergy extended the lifespan of Zn|

A Class of Shrinkage Estimators

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B: Statistical Methodology, 1978
Summary In this paper we define a class of shrinkage estimators, all of whose members have a mean square error matrix which is less than that of the ordinary least squares estimator by a positive semidefinite matrix if (β-b  *)T  X  T  X (β-b  *) ≤ σ2.

Pull‐and‐Push Nanotherapeutic Hydrogels: Scavenging Inflammatory Triggers While Driving Tissue Regeneration in Burn Wounds

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A nanounit‐assembled hydrogel employing a “pull‐and‐push” strategy simultaneously scavenges pro‐inflammatory cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) and delivers regenerative therapeutics in response to burn‐induced hyperthermia. By repolarizing macrophages and promoting angiogenesis, this multifunctional platform accelerates burn wound healing, offering a blueprint for
