This paper proposes an innovative ice-filled self-luminous fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP)
tubular (IFSFT) column for temporary structures in cold regions. The proposed column …

Concrete building structures in cold regions are frequently exposed to low-temperature
environments and inevitably subjected to impact loads during service. This study aimed to …

Frictional sliding plays a fundamental role in the mechanics of ice, on scales small and
large. Whether across opposing faces of microcracks within laboratory specimens, across …

In the present work, the distribution of fragments that result from a normal impact of a
temperature-controlled ice particle onto a dry, heated and rigid wall is investigated. For the …

CrCN/TiSiCN nano-multilayer coatings with different C/N composition ratios were prepared
on Zircaloy by hybrid multi-arc ion plating and magnetron sputtering technique, and the …

Abstract Properties of cement-based materials at cryogenic temperatures are quite different
from those at room temperatures. The strength of mortars at cryogenic temperatures was …

Penetrator–ice plate impact subjected to dynamic loading constitutes many scientific
applications for ice, such as controlling ice disasters by penetrating the ice cover and then …

Concrete structures employed for the storage of Liquefied Natural Gases (LNG) currently
undergo temperature as low as− 170° C. These critical engineering structures may also …

Imaging of liquids and cryogenic biological materials by electron microscopy has been
recently enabled by innovative approaches for specimen preparation and the fast …

Low temperatures, recognised as one of the more extreme environmental conditions,
significantly influence the fracture properties of concrete structures. In this study, three-point …
