The behaviour of laterally loaded two-pile groups [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
The response of piles and two-pile groups to lateral loading has been studied by field tests and computationally. Due to the lack of field test data and because of uncertainty concerning the pile/soil system it has been suggested that further ...

Elephant‐Skin‐Inspired Porous Cementitious Tiles with Programmable Crack Networks for Passive Cooling

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Elephant‐skin‐inspired crack networks are programmed in porous diatomaceous earth (DE)‐cement composites using substrate‐guided, stress‐concentration induced fracture. The resulting crack lattices act as capillary conduits that redistribute water, while the porous matrix stores moisture.
