Monitoring of historical structural materials with computed tomography
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Computed tomography (CT) is an excellent tool to solve certain engineering problems connected to material science (such as sulfate swelling, internal degradation due to freezing, and alkali silicate swelling) and to understand specific processes (frost peeling, acid action).

Early use of the reinforced concrete in the architecture of the Historicism in Austria–Hungary
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract The study examines the early incorporation of reinforced concrete in the architecture of Historicism in Austria–Hungary. Spanning the late 19th to early 20th centuries, the research illuminates the period's stylistic pluralism and the transformative impact of reinforced concrete.

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract After a blossoming pre‐World War II (WWII) period, the concrete construction industry in then‐socialist Hungary existed in a relative isolation from the Western World during the mid‐20th century. In this paper, we focus on the body of work of one of the then newly established state‐owned design offices, IPARTERV, to show how the isolation ...

Incremental upper bound modeling of concrete failures in timber‐concrete notched connections
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract This paper introduces a novel theoretical framework for developing incremental upper bound solutions, which is applied to predict the response of two local concrete failures in timber‐concrete composite (TCC) decks with notched connections. The new approach enables a prediction of the capacity at the onset of failure as well as the entire post‐

Exploring the potential of Textile Reinforced Concrete for corrosion‐insensitive retaining walls
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract In a context where durability concerns, particularly the corrosion of steel reinforcement, remain a critical challenge for conventional reinforced concrete structures under severe exposure, Textile Reinforced Concrete (TRC) is emerging as a promising alternative.

What happens in global value chains when the markey shifts from the north to the south?
, 2010 This paper charts the evolution of financial and economic crisis in the global economy and argues that the likely outcome will be sustained growth in the two very large Asian Driver economies of China and India and stagnation in the historically dominant
