Experimental results and modelling of corrosion-damaged concrete beams strengthened with externally-bonded composites by Elghazy M.

“…The FE models were able to capture the non-linear behavior of the strengthened beams. The interfacial bond stress-slip models at the fabric/matrix and composite/concrete interfaces and the number of composite layers had the most significant impact on the predicted response of the strengthened beams whereas the corrosion level, modeled as a reduction in the steel reinforcement cross-section, showed a slight effect on their performance. …”

Dynamic Salmonella Enteritidis biofilms development under different flow conditions and their removal using nanoencapsulated thymol by Yammine, Jina

“…A combined mixture of ML and LBL nanocapsules at ½ their minimal inhibitory concentrations induced 99.99% eradication of biofilms developed under the highest flow conditions, after 5 h. ML nanocapsules decreased significantly bacterial counts during the first 0.5 h, while LBL nanocapsules eliminated the remaining bacterial cells and ensured a protection from bacterial contamination for up to 5 h by releasing THY in a sustained manner over time due to the thicker shell wall structure.…”
