TAILORED STRUCTURES WITH TEXTILE-REINFORCED CONCRETE
, 2023 By careful removal of material in concrete structures with limited plasticity such as shear critical beams leads to an increase in the bearing capacity. This uplift, however, can come at the cost of a lower stiffness. Here we investigate the tailoring of RC-structures where the concrete is functionally graded, the width of the structure is locally ...

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Circular economy (CE) is increasingly adopted by the manufacturing industry to decouple economic growth from environmental impacts by optimizing resource use and minimizing waste generation. Nevertheless, circular manufacturing often triggers systemic responses that diminish or offset their potential environmental gains, resulting in the so ...
