Enabling simultaneous reprocessability and fire protection via incorporation of phosphine oxide monomer in epoxy vitrimer

The conception of epoxy thermosets with both reprocessability and flame retardancy delineates a new horizon in polymer science, offering a material solution that is not only superior in fire safety but is also environment friendly. Herein, a flame-retardan ...

Fire performance evaluation of GFRP-balsa sandwich bridge decks

Niloufar Vahedi

Bridges are a critical component of national infrastructures and economies. A significant percentage of bridges built all around the world are made of reinforced concrete which according to building codes have a life span between 80-100 years. However, str ...

Early-stage oxidation behavior at high temperatures of SiSiC cellular architectures in a porous burner

Sophia Haussener, Ehsan Rezaei, Alberto Ortona

Early stage oxidation behavior of SiSiC cellular lattices with different cell types was studied at 1400 degrees C in two different environments: a porous burner and an electric furnace with stagnant air. Oxidation and silicon alloy bead formation were obse ...

A review of the fire behaviour of pultruded GFRP structural profiles for civil engineering applications

Thomas Keller, Yu Bai

Pultruded glass fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP) profiles are finding increasing applications in civil engineering structures, owing to the several advantages they offer over traditional materials. However, due to the combustible nature of their polymer mat ...

Fire Design of Concrete Structures based on a Levels-of-Approximation Approach

Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Miguel Gomez

Concrete structures, contrary to steel or timber structures, have not been traditionally considered as significantly sensitive to fire conditions. As a consequence, their performance in fire conditions has generally been assessed on the basis of quite simp ...

Exploring potential drivers of European biomass burning over the Holocene: a data-model analysis

Jed Oliver Kaplan

AimTo reconstruct spatial and temporal patterns of European fire activity during the Holocene and to explore their potential drivers, by relating biomass burning to simulated biotic and abiotic parameters. LocationEurope. MethodsHolocene fire activity was ...

A model for global biomass burning in preindustrial time: LPJ-LMfire (v1.0)

Jed Oliver Kaplan, Mirjam Pfeiffer

Fire is the primary disturbance factor in many terrestrial ecosystems. Wildfire alters vegetation structure and composition, affects carbon storage and biogeochemical cycling, and results in the release of climatically relevant trace gases including CO2, C ...

Punching shear strength of R/C slabs subjected to fire

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz

This paper illustrates a study on the punching shear strength of reinforced concrete slabs in fire conditions. To this end, a set of experimental data on the punching strength of heated slab specimens was interpreted by adapting the well-known Critical She ...

Fire Performance of Water-Cooled GFRP Columns. Part II: Postfire Investigation

Thomas Keller, Yu Bai

The postfire mechanical performances of water-cooled full-scale GFRP cellular columns subjected to axial compression were evaluated after exposure to an ISO-834 fire from one side for periods of 60 and 120 mins. The elastic modulus and postfire buckling lo ...

Improved Similarity Measures for Small Sets of Spike Trains

Wulfram Gerstner, Richard Naud, Skander Mensi, Joao Emanuel Felipe Gerhard

Multiple measures have been developed to quantify the similarity between two spike trains. These measures have been used for the quantification of the mismatch between neuron models and experiments as well as for the classification of neuronal responses in ...
