Experimental study on tensile performance of horizontal joint bolted connections in fully assembled modular construction reinforced concrete by RAN Mingming, KOU Guangyun, XIONG Feng, ZHANG Dongdong, LI Wei

“…According to the calculation theory for punching shear failure bearing capacity, the reduced peak load-bearing capacity of Mode III compared to Mode II was attributed to the reduction in the effective height of the punching shear cone caused by the crushing zone, consequently resulting in decreased anti-punching shear capacity. In Mode IV, when the load was increased to 134.2 kN, abrupt fracture failure of the concrete at the cross-section above the operating hand-hole of the specimen was observed, with limited cracking. …”

Synthesis of magnetite nanoparticles using electrochemical oxidation by Ye. Ya. Levitin, I. D. Roy, O. S. Kryskiv, T. M. Chan

“…To intensify the anodic process it is necessary to apply the mixing that reduces the thickness of the diffusion layer near the electrode and allows oxidation at a current density of 0.7-1.2 A/dm2. Under appropriate conditions of electrolysis (high current density of the cathode, acidification of the solution) loss of iron Fe2+ is avoided at the expense of cathodic discharge, as mainly at the cathode the reducing of cations H+ occurs. …”

Task Differences and Prosociality; Investigating Pet Dogs' Prosocial Preferences in a Token Choice Paradigm. by Rachel Dale, Rachel Dale, Mylène Quervel-Chaumette, Ludwig Huber, Friederike Range, Sarah Marshall-Pescini

“…However, in contrast to our previous bar-pulling experiment, we could not exclude social facilitation as an underlying motive in the current task. We propose this difference in results between tasks may be related to increased task complexity in the token choice paradigm, making it harder for dogs to discriminate between the test and social facilitation conditions. …”
