Anti‐Slip Material‐Based Strategies and Approaches

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This review highlights the principle mechanisms of slipping at the microscale, linking contact mechanics with a friction behavior model for surface interfaces. Main strategies to develop anti‐slip properties to the surfaces are discussed alongside standardized testing approaches.

Chemical Stabilisation of Clayey Soil—Comparison of a Variety of Additives with Respect to Their Effects on the Soil Compressive Strength and Shear Strength

Buildings
The unconfined compressive strength and shear strength represent the basic mechanical properties of clayey soil. If the soil in its natural state does not have sufficiently good mechanical properties, in engineering practice, it can be improved by ...

Sustainable development of roadways in Africa

Materiales de Construccion, 2012
Dallas Roadway Products (DRP) soil stabilization technology can effectively improve road foundation construction and with it the strength of roadway sub-grades and sub-bases. Soil samples were collected from roads in Nigeria’s six geo-political regions.

Bacteria and Fungi Synergistically Reprogram Flavonoid Metabolites in the Pericarp of Citrus Reticulata 'Chachi' During Storage

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The authors employed widely targeted metabolomics, microbial amplicon sequencing, and fermentation assays to investigate the microbiome 's influence on PCRC 's (pericarp of Citrus reticulata ' Chachi ') flavonoid profile over 0–19 years of storage. Based on the correlation analysis, solid‐state and liquid‐state fermentation, and catalytic activity ...
