The “Findings in…” section in this issue of VLC arquitectura is devoted to Architectural Construction, a field whose recent evolution highlights its capacity to open up new lines of reflection and research on the b...

Introduction: The increase in the number of MSD cases in the construction industry is due to repetitive bending of the back, lifting and pushing/pulling with the arms, with lifting often being from a height lower than th...

Soft robotics is a rapidly evolving field that leverages compliant and deformable materials to create robotic systems capable of safe human interaction, environmental adaptability, and bio-inspired motion. Unlike rigid r...

This work introduces a novel geometrical and analytical modeling framework for predicting the stiffness properties of knitted composites, a class of materials known for their complex architectures and versatile mechanica...

Studies carried out for sustainable and low carbon emission rural area design and planning are important in minimising the effects of climate change and protecting the ecology. Especially in rural areas, the choice of lo...

According to the fractal theory, the fractal distribution formula of gradation for rockfill materials is deduced. The field gradation data of six dams with clay core and five 200 m-high CFRDs are used to verify the relev...

Heterostructured materials comprise domains with markedly different properties whose interactive coupling produces synergistic effects beyond the rule of mixtures. As the field advances, a key question is how to distingu...

Considering the nonlinear characteristics of dilatancy and strength of coarse-grained materials, an elastoplastic constitutive model based on microstructures is established within the framework of classic elastoplastic t...

The safety of core wall type rockfill dams during reservoir impounding is greatly affected by the slaking deformation of upstream shell materials. The slaking deformation of the rockfill materials is analyzed using the t...

Thanks to the ultrahigh flexibility of 2D materials and to their extreme sensitivity to applied strain, there is currently a strong interest in studying and understanding how their electronic properties can be modulated ...

Abstract CO2 curing can greatly enhance the properties of concrete while actively sequestering CO2. However, the influencing mechanisms of CO2 curing on the passivation film of steel bars in concrete remains unclear. In ...

The purpose of this research is to produce discovery learning based materials through ethnomathematics approaches on geometry transformation materials (valid, practical, and effective) and according to the needs of stude...

A corporate culture is one of the most crucial components of each organisation, which promotes the creation of an efficient system for the production of goods and services and therefore is a benefit for the company. Orga...

As key materials for medical devices and consumables, biomedical elastomer materials play a significant role in improving people's health and quality of life. The biomedical elastomer material industry has broad applicat...

This study presents a novel, modular 3D printing system for the scalable production of microbially induced calcium carbonate (CaCO3) precipitation (MICP) produced bio-materials. Through modular design principles and oper...

The inorganic materials adopted in the improvement of expansive soil engineering include lime and cement. During the construction process, the improving effect is greated influenced by the mixing uniformity of the soil c...

Interlocking concrete pavers (ICPs) require substantial cement consumption, resulting in considerable embodied carbon emissions, while the regional availability of conventional supplementary cementitious materials is bec...

This paper focuses on the development of thermosetting resins with lightweight, excellent thermal stability and oxidation resistance. Specifically, the curing behavior and thermal properties of benzoxazines incorporating...

Prestressed concrete cylinder pipe (PCCP) is composed of concrete, steel cylinder, mortar and prestressed steel wire, which has been widely used in water conveyance and diversion projects. PCCP employs high-strength conc...

To maximize the utilization of its single-atom thin nature, a facile scheme to fabricate graphene multilayer films via a layer-by-layer self-assembled process was presented. The structure of multilayer films was construc...

Field emission and current noise of hydrothermally synthesized MoS2 nanosheets are investigated in ultra- high-vacuum and industrially suited high-vacuum conditions. The study reveals that the emission turn-on field is p...
