Enhancing Specific Stiffness of Nano‐Architected Materials Through Generative AI and Active Learning

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A structure‐centric generative framework searches voxelated design space directly, coupling a variational autoencoder with multi‐objective optimization and active learning to progressively expand the validated design domain. The discovered nano‐architectures, realized as pyrolytic carbon by two‐photon lithography, deliver 18–23% higher stiffness and 26–

String Figuring young children's perspectives of quality in English early childhood education and care

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Quality in early childhood education and care (ECEC) is a contested concept and has generally been conceptualised by inter‐related indicators such as staff qualifications, educational environment, policy or child‐to‐staff ratios. There has been a more limited emphasis on how young children might perceive and experience quality.

Strut-and-tie models for linear and nonlinear behavior of concrete based on topological evolutionary structure optimization (ESO)

open access: yesRevista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais, 2019
The search for representative resistant systems for a concrete structure requires deep knowledge about its mechanical behavior. Strut-and-tie models are classic analysis procedures to the design of reinforced concrete regions where there are stress ...

Strut-and-Tie Model and Numerical Simulation of Sleeve Grouting Connection for Concrete-Filled Steel Tube Column

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
To study the performance and failure mechanisms of concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) column sleeve grouting connections, theoretical analysis and finite element simulation were performed for the structure in the connection.

Nacre‐inspired layered composite with excellent mechanical support and osteogenic potential for cervical interbody cage

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
The cervical interbody cage needs to take both biomechanical and biological requirements into account. Here, a new‐style degradable, multicomponent, and bioinspired nacre‐like cervical interbody cage composite, which exhibits promising mechanical‐support‐related behavior and osteogenesis‐related potential, is designed and prepared.

10th East Asia-Pacific Conference on Structural Engineering and Construction: Materials, Experimentation, Maintenance and Rehabilitation (EASEC-10) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
This paper presents the performance-based optimization of strut-and-tie models in reinforced concrete beam-column connections. The performance-based optimization (PBO) technique is employed to investigate optimal strut-and-tie models in reinforced ...

On the optimal strut-and-tie models and design approach for the cable-pylon anchorage zone

open access: yesJournal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2019
The cable-pylon anchorage zone is a typical D-region in a cable-stayed bridge, for which there has been no uniform simplified design method until now. In this paper, based on the extensive statistics of actual projects, topology optimization techniques ...

Investigating strut and tie model in deep beams [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The Strut-and-Tie model (STM) approach evolves as one of the most useful design methods for shear critical structures and for other disturbed regions in concrete structures. The model provides a rational approach by representing a complex structural member with an appropriate simplified truss model.
