TRC improved flexural capacity of an aged cracked bridge slab-beam
Study on carbon textile-reinforced concrete strengthening of aged bridge slabs shows 24.8% capacity increase and effective crack control under sustained service loads.
Freeze–thaw cycling changes concrete–soil interface shear behavior
Study investigates interfacial shear behavior between concrete and crushed rock-soil under freeze-thaw cycling, developing an improved constitutive model for permafrost infrastructure durability.
V2G cycling impact on lithium-ion cell lifetime depends strongly on temperature
—
in EngineeringStudy quantifies lithium-ion cell degradation from vehicle-to-grid cycling using real-world EV charging data, revealing that shallow V2G cycling at moderate depths maintains cell functionality.
