EVALUATION OF EARLY-AGE SHRINKAGE CRACKING BEHAVIOR OF PARTIALLY CONTINUOUS REINFORCED CONCRETE PAVEMENT USING RESTRAINED RING TEST

Evaluation of early-age shrinkage cracking behavior of partially continuous reinforced concrete pavement using restrained ring test

Continuously reinforced concrete pavement (CRCP) has deficiencies such as high initial construction cost and irregular crack distribution.To address the shortcomings of CRCP, a rigid pavement structure called partially continuous reinforced concrete pavement (PCRCP) was proposed.Instead of reinforced concrete slabs in the field tests, concrete ring

Morphometric measurements of dragonfly wings: the accuracy of pinned, scanned and detached measurement methods

Large-scale digitization of museum specimens, particularly of insect collections, is becoming commonplace.Imaging increases the accessibility of collections and decreases the need to handle individual, often fragile, specimens.Another potential advantage of digitization is to make it easier to conduct morphometric analyses, but the accuracy of such
