Mechanical properties and microscopic mechanism of steel slag, sodium sulfate and cement stabilized road demolition waste

Results in Engineering
When recycled aggregate (RA) from road demolition waste is used as a road base, its engineering performance tends to be poor and requires stabilization. Cement is the most commonly used stabilizer, but it is a high energy consuming product. Therefore, in

Effect of the soil-structure interaction on performance assessment of the energy-based cumulative damage index in concrete reinforced frames [PDF]

Journal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2016
In most of the conventional design methods, the soil beneath the structure is assumed to be rigid, but this assumption is not true in reality. Up to now, many studies have been performed concerning the interaction effect on the structure response but the

Leaftronics: Bio‐Fractal Scaffolds From Leaf Venation for Low‐Waste Electronics

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
“Leaftronics” transforms naturally evolved leaf venation into quasi‐fractal scaffolds for sustainable electronics. Polymer‐infiltrated leaf skeletons can be used to fabricate ultra‐smooth, reflow‐ and thin‐film‐compatible decomposable substrates, while making the same lignocellulose networks conducting results in flexible transparent electrodes.
