Structural capacity of precast concrete walls with openings: A parametric study on connection types and reinforcement ratios

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The structural role of precast concrete walls with openings is often overlooked in design practice due to concerns about reduced stiffness, stress concentration, cracking around openings, and potential unexpected failure modes under seismic loading.

Sensitivity study on accuracy and relevant parameters in numerical modeling of internal tendon breaks

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the numerical modeling of internal tendon breaks in prestressed concrete structures and evaluates the key parameters affecting accuracy. A combined approach is followed, involving global sensitivity analysis via the Elementary Effects Method and subsequent model calibration using experimental data from distributed fiber‐

The challenges of GFRP RC beam design for limit states

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars are used ever more frequently in concrete construction due to their non‐corrosive and anti‐magnetic properties. Their research over the past decades focused on fundamental questions, such as the design aspects of beams under flexural loads.

Anchorage performance of different punching shear reinforcement elements in cracked concrete

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Extensive research has been conducted on the bond and anchorage behavior of reinforcement elements in concrete. While many experimental studies have focused on uncracked concrete, the anchorage performance in the presence of cracks remains insufficiently understood.

Optimizing UHPC Layers to Improve Punching Shear Performance in Concrete Slabs

Buildings
Flat slabs supported by columns without beams are widely used in construction owing to their economy and efficiency. However, brittle punching shear failure at slab–column connections can cause progressive collapse.

The Gender of Heteroclites1

Transactions of the Philological Society, EarlyView.
Abstract Few have asked what happens to gender when a noun is heteroclitic – when its inflection draws on more than one inflection class. While heteroclisis has moved from being treated as a marginal irregularity to a theoretically revealing phenomenon, its implications for gender assignment remain largely unexplored.

Numerical study on the punching shear strength of edge steel-reinforced concrete slab-column connections

Results in Engineering
Punching shear failure in steel-reinforced concrete (RC) edge slab-column connections poses a critical challenge in structural engineering, with safety and design efficiency implications.

LLM‐based prior elicitation for Bayesian graphical modeling

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the Bayesian graphical modeling framework, priors on network structure encode theoretical assumptions and uncertainty about the topology of psychological constructs under study. For instance, the Bernoulli prior specifies the probability of each pairwise interaction, the Beta–Bernoulli prior governs expected network density, and the ...

Review of cognitive diagnostic models (CDMs): Recent methodological advancements for addressing practical challenges

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cognitive diagnostic models (CDMs) have become essential tools for providing fine‐grained information about individuals' mastery of cognitive skills. While prior reviews have emphasized statistical foundations and deep learning‐based developments, this article focuses on recent methodological innovations designed to address persistent ...
