Environmentally Responsive Fibers for Reinforced Concrete Composites
The randomness of the orientation of the ER fibers allows the concrete structure to handle a much more diverse array of stresses.
Background:
Fiber-reinforced concrete composites have become popular in the construction industry due to their robust nature with regard to both compression and tension. These fibers, however, cannot be prestressed or post-tensioned...

Photogrammetric and Multisensor Position Registration for Ground Penetrating Radars
This innovation utilizes geophysical instruments (i.e., GPR) moving across the ground to figure out what is under the earth’s surface. The question involves finding out where the object is located within a centimeter. To overcome the localization or registration challenge, the team turned to the smartphone technology and incorporated photogrammetry...
