Abstract: Contact compliance, which may arise from elastic deformation near the contact point or in the surrounding structure, affects the dynamical friction behaviors in mechanical oscillators. An idealized ...

Abstract: Internal curing (IC) technology using prewetted lightweight aggregates (LWAs) as additives has been proven to be an effective means for mitigating both autogenous shrinkage and early-age cracking under sealed curing ...

Abstract: A computational approach has been undertaken to design and assess potential Fe–Cr–Ni–Al systems to produce stable nanostructured corrosion-resistant coatings that form a protective, continuous scale ...
