Evaluation of strength and stiffness of compacted geo-materials considering strain influence factors

open access: yesGeomechanics and Geophysics for Geo-Energy and Geo-Resources
This study aimed to evaluate the strength and stiffness characteristics of geo-materials for construction under various field compaction conditions and establish reliable relationships between the elastic modulus and geotechnical properties.

In-situ shear modulus reduction with strain in stiff fissured clays and weathered mudstones

open access: yes
The non-linear stress-strain behaviour of stiff clays and weak rocks at small and medium strains may be a critical consideration in the design of geotechnical structures.

Small-strain shear modulus of volcanic granular soil: An experimental investigation

open access: yes, 2016
While volcanic soils exist in many places around the world, their mechanical behavior is however less extensively studied as compared to the conventional soil type such as quartz sand and clay.

Microsphere‐Templated Conductive Syntactic Foams for Recyclable and Additively Manufactured Soft Electronics

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This work introduces a microsphere‐templated strategy to fabricate reprocessable PEDOT:PSS syntactic foams with tunable porosity, stable conductivity, and 3D printability. In situ PEDOT:PSS coatings create a conductive network that maintains electrical performance at high void fractions.

A refined method for determining equivalent radius (Req) in resonant column tests across a wide strain range

open access: yesInternational Journal of Geo-Engineering
The equivalent radius $$\:{R}_{eq}$$ has been used for calculation of strain in Resonant Column (RC) testing. Present calculation methods for $$\:{R}_{eq}$$ are not adequate since they are not precise over a wide range of strain.

Laboratory Investigation on Shear Modulus and Damping Properties of Port Soft Clay Improved by Dynamic Compaction

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Dynamic compaction has been widely applied to reinforce soft soils in port areas due to its high efficiency and cost-effectiveness. However, a comprehensive understanding of the deformation mechanisms and stiffness evolution of treated soils under static

Tough, Ductile, and Strong Hard‐Soft Cementitious Composite Enabled by Multi‐Material Additive Manufacturing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
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

Ammonium Salts as Curing Agents to Obtain Ionic Epoxy Resins With a Thermoplastic‐to‐Thermoset Transition

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Ionic epoxy networks are prepared using ammonium salts as hardeners, leading to a two‐stage curing process with a thermoplastic‐like intermediate. This uncommon behavior enables extrusion and fabrication of thermoplastic prepregs that can be cured into thermoset composites.
