Synthetic fibres and steel fibres in concrete with regard to bond strength and toughness [PDF]
, 2009 The ability of fibre reinforced concrete composites to absorb energy has long been recognised as one of the most important benefits of the incorporation of fibres into plain concrete” (Golpalaratham and Gettu 1995).

Charring Behaviour of Mass Timber: A Comparison of Thin Intumescent Coatings and Plasterboard
Fire and Materials, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study compares the charring behaviour of mass timber under varied heating conditions when protected by either different thin intumescent coating types or fire‐rated plasterboard layers. Bench‐scale fire experiments were conducted using the Heat‐Transfer Rate Inducing System (H‐TRIS).

Thermo-mechanical compatibility of CFRP versus steel reinforcement for concrete at high temperature [PDF]
, 2014 Optimization of the design of concrete structures has become a driver for the use of nonconventional reinforcing materials. One example of this is the emerging use of non-corrosive, highstrength, and lightweight carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP ...

Gut Medicine, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Postoperative ileus (POI) is a frequent complication after surgical procedures, predominantly manifesting as aberrant gastrointestinal motility, which markedly extends the duration of postoperative recovery for patients. The clinical duration of POI is typically modulated by intricate inflammatory cascades, with mast cells assuming a critical ...

Optimizing feather hydrolysate via machine learning for microbial recycling of waste concrete fines
Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, EarlyView.Abstract BACKGROUND The concrete industry faces significant challenges from CO2 emissions and the disposal of waste concrete fines (WCF). Microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP) can bind WCF into bioconcrete, but the high cost of commercial culture media hinders its application.

Experimental Study on Concrete-Filled PVC Tubes Using E-Glass Fibre Reinforced Concrete
Journal of Civil EngineeringConcrete-filled plastic tubes (CFPT) provide corrosion resistance compared to concrete-filled steel tubes but have low stiffness and tensile capacity, which weakens confinement.
