Effect of transverse reinforcement on the shear behaviour of reinforced concrete deep beams
This study experimentally investigated the shear behavior of high-strength reinforced concrete deep beams, comparing the performance of Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) and Vibrated Concrete (VC) with varying transverse reinforcement configurations. A total of four deep beam specimens, designed for a target compressive strength of 60 MPa and a shear span-

Influence of Geometric Design on Mechanical Performance of Auxetic Metastructure
Strategic geometric reinforcement transforms auxetic performance. This study evaluates 3D‐printed arrowhead metastructures, revealing that a modified design with local ring reinforcement suppresses premature failure to achieve superior energy absorption and structural efficiency.

A Dislocation Perspective on Strength and Toughness in Ceramics
Dislocations in ceramics enjoy a long but yet under‐appreciated history. The three research waves for dislocations in ceramics highlight the topic evolution over the last 90 years. This review focuses on the impact of dislocation on strength and toughness in ceramics.

Experimental Characterization of Mycelium‐Based Composites Under Multiple Loading Conditions
This study examines the mechanical response of mycelium‐based composites under compression, shear, and tension using mechanical testing and imaging methods. The comparison between unpressed and hot‐pressed specimens shows that hot pressing is associated with higher compression and shear stiffnesses.

Can steel fibres replace transverse reinforcements in reinforced concrete girders ?
Metal fibre concretes at present in use do not possess sufficient postcracking tensile strength to be used without main reinforcements in a girder but the replacement of minor reinforcements appears to be promising. The use of fibres would save an appreciable amount of lime and facilitate the concrete implementation in strongly reinforced structures ...

This work shows that the mechanical performance of multimaterial digital light processing (DLP) printed thermoset composites is governed by resin compatibility and interfacial design rather than spatial patterning alone. Brittle and ductile resin combinations produced premature interfacial failure, while graded interfaces and mechanically compatible ...
