Large‐scale tests of 50‐year‐old prestressed concrete bridge girders
Abstract An experimental investigation has been carried out as part of the BRIDGE|50 research project, focusing on large‐scale loading tests performed on five 50‐year‐old prestressed concrete (PC) girders. The study aimed at evaluating the structural response of five girders retrieved from a viaduct in the urban area of Turin, Italy, subjected to 4 ...

Subduction zones are integral to Earth's deep water cycle, influencing magmatism, lithosphere dynamics and seismicity. They often exhibit development of extensional processes in the upper plate, which may lead to volcanic arc splitting and backarc basin ...

Abstract This study evaluates the seismic performance of elevated reinforced concrete (RC) water tanks in the Elbistan region following the February 6, 2023 Kahramanmaras–Elbistan earthquakes. Field investigations, visual damage surveys, non‐destructive testing (ultrasonic pulse velocity—UPV), concrete compressive strength measurements, peak ground ...

Mantle conductivity structure beneath eastern China using 3-D geomagnetic depth sounding
The distribution of water in the mantle plays a critical role in deep earth dynamic processes, including plate subduction, earthquake generation, and magmatic activity.

Ionothermal synthesis in Lewis‐acidic ionic liquids (ILs) yields two new low‐dimensional pnictogen–selenide networks cocrystallized with Cu[AlCl4]. Both are narrow‐gap semiconductors that exhibit strong absorption throughout the visible range. Topochemical AlCl3 extraction triggers partial delamination, pointing to a viable route toward 2D derivatives.

Output Quality, Productivity, and Demand: Evidence from the Chinese Steel Industry
ABSTRACT Unobserved objective output quality complicates the analysis of firm productivity and demand because higher‐quality products entail higher costs but offer greater consumption benefits. Using a panel of firms with output quality data, we decompose quantity‐based productivity into fundamental productivity and the costs of quality, and separate ...

Axial muscle‐fibre orientations in larval zebrafish
In 4 days post‐fertilization zebrafish larvae, the fast axial muscle fibres follow helical trajectories that taper towards the tail. Adjacent muscle fibres form substantial angles relative to each other to accommodate this pattern. Using a novel semi‐automatic method, we quantified 3D fibre angles over the whole muscle volume.
