Life-cycle low-carbon design and assessment of UHPC beams integrating flexural capacity requirements

Low-Carbon Materials and Green Construction
The excellent mechanical properties of ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) will reduce the cross-sectional size of UHPC beams, resulting in a decrease in the amount of UHPC and the carbon emission.

Guidelines for UHPC Materials

Journal of Asian Concrete Federation
As UHPC exhibited ultra-high strength, good toughness, and superior durability that can be intended for use in precast/cast-in-situ structures, precast structure elements, and repairs for buildings and civil engineering structures and non-structural elements, the guidelines cover the following aspects: (1) Definitions of the terminology ...

Hypothesis generation from pragmatic causal relationships for latent knowledge reasoning in the civil engineering domain

Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 40, Issue 29, Page 5447-5473, 9 December 2025.
Abstract Structural health monitoring (SHM) research generates vast amount of information, especially as unstructured data formats. To date, most natural language processing (NLP) applications focus on extracting information (syntactic or semantic level) rather than providing latent knowledge and generating newer information (pragmatic level).

Plastid establishment did not require a chlamydial partner [PDF]

, 2015
Primary plastids descend from the cyanobacterial endosymbiont of an ancient eukaryotic host, but the initial selective drivers that stabilized the association between these two cells are still unclear.

A method for detecting construction deviations in large and complex building structures utilizing synthetic point clouds for segmentation

Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 40, Issue 31, Page 6597-6621, 29 December 2025.
Abstract Point cloud‐based construction quality assessment and quality control (QA/QC) are playing an increasingly important role in large‐scale complex building projects. However, this approach faces several challenges, such as the laborious and time‐intensive process of manual point cloud segmentation, the high cost of point cloud labeling, and the ...

Experimental and theoretical study on seismic behavior of precast exterior UHPC-HSC beam-column connections

Case Studies in Construction Materials
This research evaluates the seismic behavior of precast ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) and high-strength concrete (HSC) beam-column connections. Quasi-static test was performed on three UHPC-HSC connections and one cast-in-place connection.

Predicted functional alterations in colonic microbiota metabolism underlie ethanol consumption and preference behavior in mice

Alcohol, Clinical and Experimental Research, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 2436-2450, November 2025.
Using a free‐choice ethanol model, we show that mice switched from a high‐sugar/butter diet to AIN93G standard diet consume and prefer more alcohol than mice maintained on AIN93G. 16S profiling and inferred metabolome revealed reduced amino acid metabolism, increased secondary bile acid pathways, and lower microbiota‐derived SCFAs and selected amino ...
