SINGAPORE – The owners of this home have been together since their polytechnic days – long enough for them to learn what they like and how they want to live. When the couple, both spatial designers in ...

The use of link-slab connections in simply supported multi-span bridge decks is a widely adopted strategy to minimize the number of expansion joints, reducing long-term maintenance issues and ...

Because standards are intentionally conservative for most projects, but new design methods are changing, project-specific design optimization is required to provide safe, cost-effective, and ...

Abstract: This paper investigates a dynamic slab design problem in the steel industry, where order demands arrive dynamically during a given period. Slabs are the raw materials for producing order ...

What if you could transform your design projects with a single, versatile toolkit? Enter the world of flat graphic design, a style celebrated for its bold simplicity and unparalleled clarity. In the ...

Punching shear is a possible type of failure that occurs in reinforced concrete flat slabs, which can develop with an ultimate load below flexural capacity. Several researchers have studied the ...

Punching shear is a type of fragile failure that occurs in flat slabs. The reaction of the column on the slab leads to the appearance of principal stresses that create a punching shear cone. This cone ...

Flat-slab subduction occurs when the descending plate becomes horizontal at some depth before resuming its descent into the mantle. It is often proposed as a mechanism for the uplifting of deep ...

The Nature Index 2025 Research Leaders — previously known as Annual Tables — reveal the leading institutions and countries/territories in the natural and health sciences, according to their output in ...
