The effectiveness of FRP in retrofitting/strengthening existing steel reinforced concrete (SRC) structures has been widely recognized. This paper compares the performance of SSRC columns without and with different CFRP bands to examine the effect of the location and width of CFRP bands on the performance of CFRPBC-SSRC.

In this work, we have shown that the addition of Zn to nanocrystalline nickel ferrite enhanced its H2 sensing properties, such as sensitivity, response time, and stability. This is explained due to the formation of defects and oxygen vacancies in the crystal structure due to the substitution of Zn ions in place of Ni ions. These defects generated more active sites for H2 gas to interact with, resulting in improved sensing performance.

In this work, SrFe12O19 samples were synthesized by hydrothermal method. We systematically studied the influence of an alkaline environment (NaOH) with the molar ratio (R) of 2 , 3 and 4 on the structure, magnetic properties of SrFe12O19 particles prepared by hydrothermal method. The relation between morphology, magnetic properties and microwave absorption properties of materials have been investigated.

In this report, SYGO:Eu3+ red phosphor have been successfully synthesized by sol-gel method. The X-ray diffraction results show that the sample has a cubic crystal structure, belonging to the space group Ia3d (230) without any doping. Scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) combined with EDS was performed to determine the microstructure and elemental composition of the fabricated phosphor.

In this paper, a multifunctional metamaterial (MM) structure capable of performing as a polarization converter and absorber is proposed. By using DC bias voltage to control the capacitor of the integrated varactor, the near-field coupling in our structure can be manipulated to flexibly switch between polarization conversion (PC) mode and perfect absorption (PA) mode.
