High strength self-compacting concrete as thin slabs: a car parking field study by José Tadeu Balbo, Andréia Posser Cargnin, Eric Ribeiro da Silva, Edvaldo Simões da Fonseca Junior, Lidiane de Oliveira Blank

“…The strength and stiffness results were indicative of the SCC's superior quality in terms of durability to fatigue. The stress analysis based on the measured parameters for the concrete slabs indicated the full possibility of using SCC, with economic advantages due to the significant reduction in design thickness, for automobile parking lots, resulting in very low stresses (under 20% of the flexural strength). …”

The putative protein methyltransferase LAE1 of Trichoderma atroviride is a key regulator of asexual development and mycoparasitism. by Razieh Karimi Aghcheh, Irina S Druzhinina, Christian P Kubicek

“…Deletion of lae1 also increased the sensitivity of T. atroviride to oxidative stress, abolished its ability to defend against other fungi and led to a loss of mycoparasitic behaviour, whereas the OElae1 strains displayed enhanced mycoparasitic vigor. …”

Behavior of arch composite beam: Experimental and numerical investigation by Abdelrahim Sabsabi, Oussama Baalbaki, Adnan Masri, Hassan Ghanem

“…Results demonstrated that external prestressing increased the ultimate moment capacity by 80 %, reduced mid-span deflection by 60 %, and significantly redistributed internal stresses, promoting a favorable arching effect. Furthermore, reducing the number of shear connectors by 50 % led to a 28 % reduction in stiffness and a 20 % increase in ductility, with negligible impact on ultimate load. …”
