Seismic strengthening of beam-column joints with multidirectional CFRP laminates [PDF]
An experimental program was carried out to analyse the potentialities of a technique based on the use of multidirectional CFRP laminates (MDL-CFRP) for the seismic repair and strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) beam-column joints. This experimental

Ceramic identity contributes to mechanical properties and osteoblast behavior on macroporous composite scaffolds. [PDF]
Implants formed of metals, bioceramics, or polymers may provide an alternative to autografts for treating large bone defects. However, limitations to each material motivate the examination of composites to capitalize on the beneficial aspects of ...

Charge‐Induced Morphing Gels for Bioinspired Actuation
This study introduces a novel electroactive actuation mechanism that enables the gel material to generate substantial and reversible shape‐changing while preserving topological and isochoric (volumetric) equivalence. The resultant morphing behaviors can mimic the movements of muscle‐driven organelles in nature, including cilia‐like beating and ...

Fatigue Behavior of Prestressed Concrete Beam for Straddle-Type Monorail Tracks
Monorail transportation systems are widely built in medium and small cities, as well as hilly cities, because of their excellent performance. A prestressed concrete track beam is a key load-carrying structural component and guideway subjected to repeated

An adapted processing for solvent‐free argyrodite solid electrolyte films based on insights into degradation mechanisms of the widely used binder polytetrafluoroethylene is presented. By adapting the dry film processing, long‐term cycling in Si||NMC pouch cells is demonstrated over more than 1000 cycles with a capacity retention of more than 80%, and ...

Numerical analysis of hysteretic behavior for RAC structure under earthquake loading
The hysteretic properties of RAC structure subjected to different strain rates are analyzed, and the displacement ductility is assessed. It is revealed that, under earthquake wave excitation with the increasing strain rate, the lateral stiffness, the ...

The effect of masonry infill walls on the reinforced concrete frames behavior under lateral load [PDF]
The reinforced concrete structures with masonry infill walls are widely used to construct buildings in Algeria, as in many parts of the world. According to earthquake analysis, this type of construction can undergo serious damage under seismic load.

Dry electrode technology revolutionizes battery manufacturing by eliminating toxic solvents and energy‐intensive drying. This work details two promising techniques: dry spray deposition and polymer fibrillation. How their unique solvent‐free bonding mechanisms create uniform microstructures for thicker, denser electrodes, boosting energy density and ...
