Elastomeric conductive textiles are promising for wearable electromagnetic shielding, requiring maintained performance under stretch. Herein, weft-stretch conductive woven fabric integrating silver-plated elastic wrapped...

Abstract In structural engineering, the behavior and strength of reinforced concrete haunched beams (RCHBS) are crucial, especially when shear strength governs design. Despite the advantages of RCHBS, several building co...

Background. Viral infections remain a major global health threat despite advances in vaccines and antiviral drugs due to the rapid emergence of resistance and new viral pathogens. Antiviral peptides (AVPs) are promising ...

Abstract This systematic literature review investigates how inclusive curricular interventions and pedagogy in undergraduate engineering education influence sense of belonging, professional identity, and persistence amon...

ABSTRACT Phthalates such as isophthalate, phthalate, and terephthalate are widespread environmental pollutants with significant health and ecological impacts. Comamonas testosteroni KF1 initiates isophthalate degradation...

Sustainable infrastructure has emerged as a central pillar in addressing the complex challenges associated with rapid urbanization, population growth, and climate variability. Modern civil engineering practice increasing...

Abstract The inverse problem analysis method provides an effective way for the structural parameter identification. However, uncertainties wildly exist in the practical engineering inverse problems. Due to the coupling o...

Abstract There is a pressing need for high-performance, high-strength low-alloy structural (HSLA) steels in various engineering fields, such as hydraulic components, engineering machinery, bridges, ships, and pressure ve...

Structural health monitoring (SHM) has become a central tool for managing civil infrastructure. In modern SHM, the physical structure and the SHM system together form a coupled cyber-physical system. Due to the networked...

Abstract Bone tissue engineering scaffolds must provide structural support while permitting fluid transport and maintaining safe hydrodynamic conditions for cell activity. Triply Periodic Minimal Surface (TPMS) architect...

Abstract Measuring and reconstructing the shape of workpieces have been considered as a fundamental step in both reverse engineering and product quality control. Owing to increasing structural complexity of recent produc...

The science of light and colour manipulation continues to generate interest across a range of disciplines, from mainstream biology, across multiple physics-based fields, to optical engineering. Furthermore, the study of ...

Abstract Background and objectives Squamous cell carcinoma antigen recognized by T-cells 3 (SART3) has emerged as a promising target for cancer immunotherapy, given its overexpression in various malignancies and low or a...

The next-generation network technology is an intelligent information technology with the characteristics of collaborative perception, ubiquitous communication, and computer assistance. It is highly related to the industr...

This paper examines the influence of controlled heat treatments on the mechanical behaviour of Ti-6Al-4V (Grade 5 Titanium alloy) to improve its performance in structural and high performance applications. Ti-6Al-4V is w...

ABSTRACT Background: Climate change and widespread environmental degradation have increased the risk of natural hazards in recent decades. Hydrological, meteorological, and climatological disasters have become more frequ...

Based on the actual state of the soil along rail transit in hot and rainy area, the resonant column tests on the soil under wetting and drying circles are conducted to study the stiffness characteristics of residual soil...

With the rapid expansion of transport infrastructure into complex mountainous terrain, bridge-tunnel connecting sections (BTCSs) have emerged as a common yet distinct configuration characterized by high bridge-to-tunnel ...

Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS) orchestration faces critical challenges in managing the Service Quality Index (SQI), Fleet Utilization Ratio (FUR), and Dynamic Pricing Index (DPI) under uncertain and time-varying urban dema...

ABSTRACT Proton exchange membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE) is a compelling route for sustainable green hydrogen production. Yet Ir‐based oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalysts suffer from a persistent trade‐off ...

Abstract In the realm of engineering practice, various factors such as limited availability of measurement data and complex working conditions pose significant challenges to obtaining accurate load spectra. Thus, accurat...

Rechargeable all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs) are considered as promising candidates for next-generation energy storage due to their high energy density and excellent safety performance. However, the low ionic conductiv...

Abstract Titanium alloys are excellent structural materials in engineering fields, but their poor tribological properties limit their further applications. Electroless plating is an effective method to enhance the tribol...

Understanding how a user interacts with a system is important if the goal is to deliver a product that meets the user's needs. Use cases constitute a primary source of requirements in a user-centered perspective and are ...
