Effective axial strength of laterally strengthened RC pier heads with post‐tensioning method

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the structural performance enhancement of reinforced concrete (RC) pier heads laterally strengthened with unbonded post‐tensioning (PT) to accommodate increased design loads following a deck replacement of an existing railway bridge.

The “We” and “Me” of Identity in Hazardous Industry Organizations: Face Work Tactics Among Practicing Engineers

Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
In this paper, we use Goffman's notion of “face work” to examine how pipeline engineers perform and present their working selves as competent experts. Our analysis identifies various faces and face work tactics, including a focus on professional judgment, actively selling one's expertise relative to others, protective self‐deprecatory strategies, and ...

“White and Clear” (WaC): A tunable hydrophilic tissue clearing strategy for multi‐species 3D imaging

VIEW, EarlyView.
Optical tissue clearing methods help scientists make tissues transparent to image structures deep inside organs in 3D, but many existing techniques are limited in performance and difficulty. In this study, we developed an optimized clearing method called WaC (White and Clear), which improves upon existing techniques by combining efficient tissue ...

Empirical Physics‐Based Normal Behavior Modeling of Drive Train Temperatures With High‐Resolution Wind Turbine Operating Data

Wind Energy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The installed wind energy capacity increases every year. However, operation and maintenance costs still make up a considerable portion of the levelized costs of electricity. This costs can be greatly reduced by the application of suitable early fault detection methods. The supervisory control and data acquisition system of wind turbines is one
