A non-linear procedure for the numerical analysis of crack development in beams failing in shear by P. Bernardi, R. Cerioni, E. Michelini, A. Sirico

“…The effectiveness of this procedure has been verified against significant experimental results available in the technical literature and relative to reinforced concrete beams without stirrups failing in shear, which represent a problem of great theoretical and practical importance in the field of structural engineering. Numerical results have been compared to experimental evidences not only in terms of global structural response (i.e. applied load vs. midspan deflection), but also in terms of crack pattern evolution and maximum crack widths.…”

High performance of Mg3Bi1.5Sb0.5 based materials for power generation: Revealing the counter-intuitive effect of tuning Bi content on the thermoelectric properties by Nuo Qu, Yuke Zhu, Jianbo Zhu, Kuai Yu, Fengkai Guo, Zihang Liu, Qian Zhang, Wei Cai, Jiehe Sui

“…Recently, Mg3Sb2-xBix alloys have attracted intensive attention, with the aim of maximizing the electrical transport performance via donor element doping, increasing the grain size, as well as electronic band structure engineering. However, less attention has been paid to other significant factors, like how these intrinsic point defects and accompanied secondary phases influence thermoelectric properties. …”
