Essential Role of Icosahedral Symmetry in the 3D Shape of AuAg Plasmonic Nanostars With High Aspect‐Ratio Legs

Small, EarlyView.
Electron nanodiffraction mapping was used to determine that the 3D leg configuration of branched plasmonic AuAg nanostars is associated with the icosahedral symmetry of the star core, providing a deeper understanding of their growth mechanism and thus paving the way to the development of optimized synthesis protocols targeting optical enhancement ...

Experimental and design‐oriented research on fiber reinforced concrete segmental tunnel linings: A systematic review

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The use of fiber reinforced concrete (FRC) in precast tunnel segments is among the most established and representative applications of this material. Over the past two decades, numerous tunnel linings were constructed with partial or total substitution of conventional steel reinforcement by fibers, this yielding to quantifiable benefits in ...
