Numerical analysis of reinforced concrete shear keys in immersion joints

open access: yes, 2017
Immersion joints are susceptible to be damaged first under various loadings due ito their smaller stiffhess compared to the adjacent tunnel elements. The induced Ideformations and the forces in the joint are transferred by shear keys.

Spheres, tears, and spears: Regulating the perimeter and circularity of millimeter‐sized alginate hydrogel beads

open access: yesAIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Generating hydrogel beads pertains to many engineering applications. We examined two alginate‐based fluids at three concentrations of alginate, cAG$$ {c}_{\mathrm{AG}} $$. We used the “Map of Misery” to determine which material property (viscosity, elasticity, and inertia) drives droplet formation.

Deep Learning Approaches for Classifying Crack States With Overload and Predicting Fatigue Parameters in a Titanium Alloy

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study proposes a deep learning approach to evaluate the fatigue crack behavior in metals under overload conditions. Using digital image correlation to capture the strain near crack tips, convolutional neural networks classify crack states as normal, overload, or recovery, and accurately predict fatigue parameters.

Treatments on Polypropylene Macro Synthetic Fibers for Improving Adhesion in Structural Concrete Reinforcement: A Systematic Review

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Surface functionalization of polypropylene macrofibers to enhance fiber‐matrix interfacial bonding. ABSTRACT Concrete is the most used higher compressive strength‐building material, albeit brittle to tensile, and flexural loads. Polypropylene (PP) synthetic polymeric macrofibres are commonly employed as reinforcement material to prevent this situation ...

Thin and Compact Versus Thick and Porous Fouling Layers in the Emulsion Polymerization of Acrylates and Vinyl Acetates Studied In Situ With a Quartz Crystal Microbalance (QCM)

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Building on a quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM‐D), fouling in emulsion polymerization was compared between acrylate dispersions stabilized with a mobile, anionic surfactant and dispersions of poly(vinyl acetate‐co‐vinyl neodecanoate), PVAc, stabilized with polyvinyl alcohol, PVOH.
