    • Predicting the response of locally resonant concrete structure under blast load
      Jin, H.; Hao, Hong ; Hao, Yifei ; Chen, Wensu (2020)
      Ternary locally resonant metamaterial (LRM) is a manmade material consisting of rigorously designed heavy inclusions with coated soft layer. Such design enables the LRM to possess good wave-filtering characteristics that ...
    • Spall Behaviors of Metaconcrete: 3D Meso-Scale Modelling
      Jin, H.; Hao, Hong ; Chen, Wensu ; Xu, Cheng (2021)
      Spalling is a typical tensile fracture phenomenon due to insufficient tensile strength of concrete. Concrete structure might experience severe spall damage at the rear surface of the structure owing to reflected tensile ...
    • Functionally graded truncated square pyramid folded structures with foam filler under dynamic crushing
      Li, Z.; Chen, Wensu ; Hao, Hong (2019)
      Dynamic crushing responses and energy absorption of functionally graded folded structures with foam fillers are investigated in this study. The proposed structure consists of multiple layers of folded truncated square ...
    • Effect of enhanced coating layer on the bandgap characteristics and response of metaconcrete
      Jin, H.; Hao, Hong ; Chen, Wensu ; Xu, Cheng (2021)
      Metaconcrete is made by partially or fully replacing natural coarse aggregates (NA) in normal concrete (NC) with engineered aggregates (EA). Normal engineered aggregate (NEA) is made by wrapping elastic coating outside ...
    • Influence of various impact scenarios on the dynamic performance of concrete beam-column joints
      Li, H.; Chen, Wensu ; Huang, Z.; Hao, Hong ; Ngo, Tang Tuan ; Pham, Thong (2022)
      This study investigated dynamic performances of concrete beam-column joints under various impact loading scenarios including impact contact condition (i.e., impact directly or via an interlayer), impact location, and ...
    • Experimental methods for inter-module joints in modular building structures – A state-of-the-art review
      Lacey, Andrew ; Chen, Wensu ; Hao, Hong (2022)
      This paper presents a state-of-the-art review of the experimental methods for inter-module joints (IMJs) in modular buildings. For the structural response, three levels of study are defined: module (M), frame (F), and ...
    • Experimental and Numerical Study of Basalt FRP Strip Strengthened RC Slabs under Impact Loads
      Chen, Wensu ; Pham, Thong ; Elchalakani, M.; Li, H.; Hao, Hong ; Chen, L. (2020)
      Basalt fiber-reinforced polymer (BFRP) has been applied for strengthening concrete structures. However, studies on reinforced concrete (RC) slabs strengthened by BFRP strips under impact loads are limited in open literature. ...
    • The Effect of Supplementation of Mediterranean Browse Species on Nutritive Properties of Sheep Diets and Predicting these Properties from Faecal Analyses
      Maniksinghage Bogategedara, Pushpakumara Mahipala (2023)
      The research investigated the nutritive value and inclusion levels of tagasaste, saligna and river saltbush for sheep fed roughage-based diets. Calibration equations derived from faecal fibre, lignin, ash and nitrogen ...
    • Fundamental Study of CO2 Adsorption from Natural Gas using Activated Carbon
      Sim, Allan Hua Heng (2023)
      This proposed PhD project focuses on addressing the fundamental mechanism of carbon dioxide (CO2) adsorption within activated carbon (AC), which plays an important role in natural gas separation. A systematic study of CO2 ...
    • Multimessenger observations of a flaring blazar coincident with high-energy neutrino IceCube-170922A
      Aartsen, M.G.; Ackermann, M.; Adams, J.; Aguilar, J.A.; Ahlers, M.; Ahrens, M.; Al Samarai, I.; Altmann, D.; Andeen, K.; Anderson, T.; Ansseau, I.; Anton, G.; Argüelles, C.; Auffenberg, J.; Axani, S.; Bagherpour, H.; Bai, X.; Barron, J.P.; Barwick, S.W.; Baum, V.; Bay, R.; Beatty, J.J.; Becker Tjus, J.; Becker, K.H.; Benzvi, S.; Berley, D.; Bernardini, E.; Besson, D.Z.; Binder, G.; Bindig, D.; Blaufuss, E.; Blot, S.; Bohm, C.; Börner, M.; Bos, F.; Böser, S.; Botner, O.; Bourbeau, E.; Bourbeau, J.; Bradascio, F.; Braun, J.; Brenzke, M.; Bretz, H.P.; Bron, S.; Brostean-Kaiser, J.; Burgman, A.; Busse, R.S.; Carver, T.; Cheung, E.; Chirkin, D.; Christov, A.; Clark, K.; Classen, L.; Coenders, S.; Collin, G.H.; Conrad, J.M.; Coppin, P.; Correa, P.; Cowen, D.F.; Cross, R.; Dave, P.; Day, M.; de André, J.P.A.M.; De Clercq, C.; Delaunay, J.J.; Dembinski, H.; De Ridder, S.; Desiati, P.; de Vries, K.D.; de Wasseige, G.; de With, M.; Deyoung, T.; Díaz-Vélez, J.C.; Di Lorenzo, V.; Dujmovic, H.; Dumm, J.P.; Dunkman, M.; Dvorak, E.; Eberhardt, B.; Ehrhardt, T.; Eichmann, B.; Eller, P.; Evenson, P.A.; Fahey, S.; Fazely, A.R.; Felde, J.; Filimonov, K.; Finley, C.; Flis, S.; Franckowiak, A.; Friedman, E.; Fritz, A.; Gaisser, T.K.; Gallagher, J.; Gerhardt, L.; Ghorbani, K.; Glauch, T.; Glüsenkamp, T.; Goldschmidt, A.; Gonzalez, J.G. (2018)
      Previous detections of individual astrophysical sources of neutrinos are limited to the Sun and the supernova 1987A, whereas the origins of the diffuse flux of high-energy cosmic neutrinos remain unidentified. On 22 ...
