Methods for strengthening building structures with composite materials are considered. The reduced characteristics of a multilayer composite material are determined depending on the orientation of the layers. The criteria for the destruction of a multilayer composite material used in many areas, including construction, are considered. Unlike a homo...

The pile’s ultimate capacity or failure load must be computed by some criteria using load-settlement curve data gathered during the pile load test. Many scholars have proposed several approaches for evaluating the pile’s ultimate capacity in the past. This study compared different failure criteria to predict the ultimate load capacity for piles wit...

In this study, the influence of two distinct reactive aggregate dosages on the alkali–silica reaction (ASR) of concrete was investigated. The expansion ratio, axial compressive strength, splitting tensile strength, and relative dynamic elastic modulus (RDEM) of concrete were considered as the main parameters to study the failure criteria of concret...

Background Determining tumor necrosis factor-alpha inhibitors (anti-TNF-α) failure is still a challenge in the management of moderate-to-severe psoriasis. Thus, our comprehensive systematic literature review aimed to gather information on the criteria used to define anti-TNF-α failure. We also aimed to discover the main reasons for anti-TNF-α failu...
Numerical modelling is an important instrument for rock engineering; it can assist in the design and prediction of failure in rock masses. Dependable results can be obtained from the models if, and only if, the underlying assumptions, strengths, and weaknesses of the model are known. A set of guidelines to implement a numerical modelling program ca...

Furniture failure generally appears at junctions between wooden parts. Failure prediction is a challenging problem considering the various technologies used for the assembly, the geometric dimensions of the wooden assembled parts and of the assembly components as well as the material properties of the wooden parts. Being able to provide a procedure...

Objective The study aims to assess two refractive instrument-based methods of vision screening (SureSight and PlusoptiX) to detect refractive amblyopia risk factors (ARFs) and significant refractive errors in Chinese preschool children and to develop referral criteria according to the 2021 AAPOS guidelines. Methods Eye examinations were conducted i...
The complexity of biaxial tests and analysis of their results makes it difficult to study the interlaminar shear properties of fibre-reinforced composites, particularly under through-thickness compression, which occurs in thick-walled composite elements. The improvements in experimental methods to study the features of the nonlinear behaviour of co...
This paper presents multiscale-based failure criteria to predict the failure of polymer composites with any shape of defect. The multiscale technique consists of bi-directional processes called upscaling and downscaling processes to link two different length scales. One is the microscale at the fiber and matrix material level, and the other is the ...
