Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Grouted sleeve connectors (GSCs) are widely used in precast/prefabricated concrete structures. To ensure force transfer, connectors are often overdesigned in length. This practice has an unintended consequence of reducing the plastic deformation capacity of the connection region and hence the displacement ductility of the precast structure as ...

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Dry joints are widely used in precast segmental bridge construction because they simplify assembly and accelerate erection. Incorporating fasteners crossing flat dry joints represents an innovative configuration for this type of connection.

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Structural monitoring and assessment can be used to ensure the long‐term performance of structures and inform when maintenance is required by accounting for the degradation of material properties. A key force‐resisting mechanism in reinforced concrete that must be considered as part of an assessment and that can degrade over time is tension ...

Bond behavior of corroded reinforcement: Experimental investigation and finite element analysis
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract This study investigates the bond behavior of corroded reinforcing bars in reinforced concrete members using beam tests that reproduce stress conditions representative of structural members, complemented by nonlinear finite element (FE) analysis.

Identity Entanglement: Rethinking Marginality through the Intersectional, Liminal, and Antithetical
Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.While identity research has given sustained attention to marginality, intersectionality, and the effects of power on identity, the formal interactional dynamics through which identities are constituted remain limited. I present identity entanglement as a useful framework for better understanding and articulating the relational complexities of identity.

The Grammar of Race: British Fascism, Racial Nationalism and the Rise of Reform UK
The Political Quarterly, EarlyView.Abstract This article brings histories of British fascism and the Black Radical Tradition into conversation with the study of contemporary British politics to offer a race‐critical analysis of Reform UK's rise. Drawing on race‐critical scholarship and Black Radical analyses of fascism, it argues that Reform UK is the latest formation of a distinctively
