Effective axial strength of laterally strengthened RC pier heads with post‐tensioning method

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the structural performance enhancement of reinforced concrete (RC) pier heads laterally strengthened with unbonded post‐tensioning (PT) to accommodate increased design loads following a deck replacement of an existing railway bridge.

The House of Lords and Devolution: Already a Chamber of the Nations and Regions?

open access: yesThe Political Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract When it published its report in 2022, one of the main recommendations of the Brown Commission, established by the Labour Party to examine the future governance of the UK, was for the replacement of the House of Lords with an ‘assembly of the nations and regions’.

Fleeting Feminism: The Singapore Women's Federation, Singapore Chinese Left‐Wing Feminism and Anti‐Colonial Nationalism, c. 1950s

open access: yesGender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In 1955, two female factory workers and trade union leaders, Tan Lee Eng and Kwek Tai Eng, established the Singapore Women's Federation (SWF) to unite women regardless of race, religion or class for the anti‐colonial nationalist struggle. Singapore Chinese left‐wing feminism emerged at the confluence of the nationalist interest in mobilising ...

The First World War at Sea: Death, Commemoration and Cultural Remembrance

open access: yesHistory, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite the ever‐increasing body of work devoted to war memorials, national days of remembrance and the commemoration of the First World War in Britain, academic focus remains firmly on the commemoration of the First World War on land. Yet, while the number of people who died at sea paled in comparison to their counterparts on the battlefield ...

Fatigue of AM TiAl6V4: Probabilistic Modelling of the Size Influence as a Transfer Method From Test Specimen to Part

open access: yesFatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the fatigue behavior of additively manufactured TiAl6V4 by comparing two specimen geometries with different highly stressed volumes. A fracture mechanical approach based on the El‐Haddad–Smith–Topper model is combined with defect analysis through X‐ray computed tomography.

Targeted keratin repair: A plant‐based approach to hair strength and surface restoration

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Application of Avena strigosa seed extract may reinforce keratin bonding, restoring hair fibre integrity by promoting intramolecular interactions at damaged sites of keratin proteins. Abstract Objective Chemical and thermal stress disrupts the intramolecular and intermolecular interactions that stabilize hair keratin, leading to structural degradation ...

Strengthening of Steel Beam by Inclined Stiffeners

ce/papers, 2022
AbstractThere are several ways how to increase the bending resistance of a beam. The simplest method is to increase the cross‐section size. But this method may not be the most efficient or feasible, especially in the case of an existing building in need of strengthening. In this paper, the method of strengthening a beam by welded inclined stiffeners is

Fatigue Strengthening of Cracked Steel Beams With CFRP Plates

Volume 9: Mechanics of Solids, Structures and Fluids, 2010
Externally bonded FRP systems offer an attractive method to improve the fatigue life of steel beams. The fatigue performance of such a strengthened beam can be further enhanced by prestressing the bonded FRP reinforcement. While a number of studies have been conducted on the fatigue strengthening of steel beams using FRP, they have generally been ...
