Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Cold weather conditions impose substantial constraints upon the performance and long‐term resilience of concrete materials. Alkali‐activated slag (AAS) presents itself as a promising substitute, exhibiting sustained hydraulic activity even when exposed to ambient conditions characterized by low temperatures.

Self-healing of Micro-cracks in Engineered Cementitious Composites
Civil Engineering Dimension, 2015 The performance of an Engineered Cementitious Composite (ECC) to self-heal micro-cracks under a controlled laboratory environment is presented. Ten dog-bone shaped samples were prepared; five of them were preloaded to known strains and then left to heal

Bacterial healing of cracks in metakaolin‐based geopolymer concrete exposed to high temperatures
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract This study examined the bacterial healing of metakaolin‐based geopolymer concrete modified with colemanite (K) and red mud (RM) exposed to high temperatures. The metakaolin‐based geopolymer concrete samples modified with 4% K and 6% RM were prepared.

Predicting resilient modulus: A data driven approach integrating physical and numerical techniques
HeliyonResilient modulus (MR) is an important parameter in the design of pavement that helps to characterize the quality of sub-grade materials. Generally, it is not determined experimentally due to time consuming, uneconomical, laborious and lack of advanced ...

Consistent Choice of Prey Source Habitat Across Diverse Landscapes by a Selective Insectivorous Bat
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.After analyzing the diet of the greater horseshoe bats in three distinct colonies, we identified significant spatial and temporal differences, particularly noting a stronger reliance on riparian habitats in Mediterranean areas. The species exhibits great ecological adaptability with strong plasticity in prey source habitats, shifting preferences among ...

Intercooperation and open innovation: Unleashing cooperative firms’ innovation potential
Annals of Public and Cooperative Economics, EarlyView.Abstract This research examines how interorganizational cooperation impacts the innovation performance of cooperative firms. Existing literature asserts that there are limitations in the innovation capabilities of cooperatives. This study seeks to challenge that assumption and explore whether the nature of such firms enhances their cooperation with ...
