Petrogenetic evidences in geodynamics and placement of Nordoz intrusive masses in Alborz-Azerbaijan structural zone by Shahryar Mahmoudi, Shiva Lavi, Shohreh Hassanpour, Amir Ali Tabakh Shabani, Mehran Yegane Far

“…The presented data, in conjunction with the findings of geochemical and isotopic studies, as well as the positioning of the Nordoz region samples within tectonic environment diagrams, permit the formulation of a model for the genesis of these rocks. This model proposes that the mantle portion of the subcontinental lithosphere is the most probable origin for these rocks. …”

Tensile Performance of SHCC Road-Bridge Link Slabs in Fully Jointless Bridges by Xuefang Zhan, Kaile Liu, Yi-Bin Zhao, Hengli Yan

“…The conventional fully jointless bridge has been challenged by durability and reliability issues because the CRCP is vulnerable to crack and hard to control the crack width when it suffers temperature variation. In this paper, a new type of fully jointless bridge with the road-bridge link slabs using strain-hardening cementitious composite (SHCC) material is investigated. …”
