Experimental Study on Flexural Behaviors and Theoretical Compression-Bending Capacity of Unreinforced Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete

open access: yesBuildings
Despite ongoing research efforts aimed at understanding the structural response of steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC), there is very limited research on the failure characteristics and theoretical compression-bending capacity of unreinforced steel ...

Thermo-mechanical behaviour of a compacted swelling clay [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Compacted unsaturated swelling clay is often considered as a possible buffer material for deep nuclear waste disposal. An isotropic cell permitting simultaneous control of suction, temperature and pressure was used to study the thermo-mechanical ...

High Density Polyethylene/Ground Tire Rubber Composites Compatibilized by Dicumyl Peroxide

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, the thermal behavior of dicumyl peroxide (DCP) was first evaluated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), which confirmed a peak decomposition temperature around 172°C, highlighting its incompatibility with standard melt‐mixing techniques for most polyolefins. To overcome this limitation,

Prediction of soil-water characteristic curve based on pore size distribution of soils

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2021
The soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) is an important curve describing the relationship between the suction of unsaturated soils and the saturation or water content, and is an important basis for analyzing the strength, deformation and seepage of ...

Natural Antioxidants as Thermal Stabilizers in Post‐Consumer Polypropylene

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
A synergistic antioxidant system combining two natural antioxidants, quercetin and tocopherol, enhances the thermo‐oxidative stability of recycled polypropylene. The approach addresses key barriers to the utilization of recycled polymers, offering a sustainable pathway to improve material performance and supporting the broader adoption of recycled ...

A Geomorphometric Approach to Estimate the Deterioration of Earthen Archaeological Sites by Rainfall and Diffusion Processes: The Huaca Chornancap (Eighth–14th Century ad), Lambayeque, Peru

open access: yesArchaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rain‐induced erosion processes can severely damage Earthen archaeological sites. Huaca Chornancap (HCH; eighth–14th century ad) is a platform located in the Lambayeque region (Peru) exposed to seasonal rain due to El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO).

Oxidative Fast Pyrolysis Enabling Autothermal Production of Porous Functionalized Biochar and Anhydrosugar/Phenol‐Rich Bio‐Oil From Biomass

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
Oxidative fast pyrolysis of biomass enables autothermal production of value‐added products. ABSTRACT Oxidative fast pyrolysis can potentially overcome the heat‐supply bottleneck of conventional fast pyrolysis by enabling autothermal operation while also tailoring product quality through controlled oxygen addition.

Coupled hydro-thermo-deformation frost heave model for unsaturated expansive soils in seasonally frozen soil regions

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2022
A large area of deep residual deluvial expansive soils is distributed in seasonally frozen soil regions in China. Its unique 'frost heave-thaw settlement' and 'expansion-shrinkage' characteristics induce many engineering diseases.
