Effect of carbon nanotubes on the bonding mechanism of non-corrosive reinforcements to concrete by Alaa, Taha

“…Through testing 30 pullout specimens, parameters including maximum bond strength, normalized bond strength, failure mode, and bar slippage under maximum bond stress were evaluated. Results showed a slight reduction in bond strength, minor improvement in normalized bond strength, increased development length of FRP bars, and decreased reinforcement slippage associated with the ultimate bond stress when MWCNTs were incorporated into the concrete mixture. …”

Thermally assisted efficient electrochemical lithium extraction from simulated seawater by Yanxi, Yu

“…Comprehensive material characterization and mechanistic analyses revealed that the improved lithium extraction originates from boosted kinetics rather than thermodynamic equilibrium shifts. A higher temperature (i.e., 60 oC) mitigates the activation polarization of lithium intercalation, decreases charge transfer resistances, and improves lithium diffusion. …”

Soccer training: High-intensity interval training is mood disturbing while small sided games ensure mood balance by Selmi, O.

“…The HIIT compared with SSG resulted in: an increased total mood disturbance (P<0.001), tension (P<0.05), fatigue (P<0.01) and a decreased vigor (P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Both HIIT and SSG sessions induced similar physiological responses, in contrast, HIIT produced a mood disturbance while SSG ensured mood balance. …”

Improving Concrete Durability by Using Optimized Aggregate Gradation and Reducing Cement Content by Chung, Hung-Wen

“…The main findings from this study are as follows: (1) The cementitious content of typical Florida pavement and structural concrete can be reduced by as much as 10 to 15% without loss in workability of the fresh concrete, and without decreasing the strength and durability of the hardened concrete. (2) Portlandlimestone cement (Type IL) can be used as a substitute for ordinary Portland cement (Type I/II). (3) The OAG technique can be used to efficiently reduce the cementitious content of the concrete mixes and to improve their performance."…”
