  • Mechanical Properties and Durability of Polypropylene and Steel Fiber-Reinforced Recycled Aggregates Concrete (FRRAC): a Review
    sustainability Review Mechanical Properties and Durability of Polypropylene and Steel Fiber-Reinforced Recycled Aggregates Concrete (FRRAC): A Review Peng Zhang 1 , Yonghui Yang 1, Juan Wang 1,*, Shaowei Hu 1,2, Meiju Jiao 1 and Yifeng Ling 3 1 School of Water Conservancy Engineering, Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou 450001, China; [email protected] (P.Z.); [email protected] (Y.Y.); [email protected] (S.H.); [email protected] (M.J.) 2 College of Civil Engineering, Chongqing University, Chongqing 400045, China 3 Department of Civil, Construction and Environmental Engineering, Iowa State University, Ames, IA 50011, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 7 October 2020; Accepted: 13 November 2020; Published: 15 November 2020 Abstract: With the development of concrete engineering, a large amount of construction, demolition, excavation waste (CDEW) has been produced. The treated CDEW can be used as recycled aggregate to replace natural aggregate, which can not only reduce environmental pollution and construction-related resource waste caused by CDEW, but also save natural resources. However, the mechanical properties and durability of Recycled Aggregates Concrete (RAC) are generally worse than that of ordinary concrete. Various fiber or mineral materials are usually used in RAC to improve the mechanical properties and durability of the matrix. In RAC, polypropylene (PP) fiber and steel fiber (SF) are two kinds most commonly used fiber materials, which can enhance the strength and toughness of RAC and compensate the defects of RAC to some extent. In this paper, the literature on PP fiber- and SF-reinforced RAC (FRRAC) is reviewed, with a focus on the consistence, mechanical performance (compressive strength, tensile strength, stress–strain relationship, elastic modulus, and shear strength), durability (water absorption, chloride permeability, carbonation, freeze–thaw cycling, and shrinkage), and microstructure.

  • Folding Chairs
    Folding Chairs When I began researching folding chairs I expected to find an abundance of information about how they were used, what materials were best, where to purchase them and similar questions to aide in a civilian portrayal. After all a variety of folding chairs abound in military photographs and illustrations. The further I researched the more evident it became that I was not going to find a list of chairs which Civil War era civilian reenactors should be using, an abundance of manufacturing statistics leading up to the war, or even advice for selecting the chairs and their upholstery in home economy books. Instead, I found despite a history dating back centuries, folding chairs were minimally used domestically during the first half of the nineteenth century. This was followed by a resurgence in popularity during and immediately following the War, which may have sprouted during the 1850s in the United States and earlier in the century in Europe*. This finding leaves us with a significant quandary regarding the use of folding chairs among civilian reenactors. True. Folding chairs offer several appealing factors. They are easy to pack. They are easy to carry. They offer a periodesque look to a display, home or encampment. They are frequently less expensive then mid-nineteenth century non-folding chairs or their reproductions. They are also documented for military use. Are any of these factors justification enough for the use of folding chairs by civilians? Sorry. I am not going to answer that question for you. I am going to provide you with a summary of what information I have found to aid you in your decision on chair use.

Adaptive Erwartungen, Pfadabhängigkeit und -bruch am Beispiel der Vermarktung von Musik durch große Tonträgerunternehmen Inaugural-Dissertation zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades eines Doktors der Wirtschaftswis- senschaft des Fachbereichs Wirtschaftswissenschaft der Freien Universität Berlin vorgelegt von Kristian Kunow Berlin, 2013 Erstgutachter Univ.-Prof. Dr. Martin Gersch Freie Universität Berlin Zweitgutachter Univ.-Prof. Dr. Jochen Koch Europa-Universität Viadrina Frankfurt (Oder) Tag der Disputation 06. Dezember 2012 3 4 DANKSAGUNG Meiner Erfahrung nach stellt man sich mit einem Promotionsvorhaben und damit verbunden dem Verfassen einer Dissertationsschrift, einer zunächst unüberschaubaren Herausforderung. Im Verlauf einiger Jahre muss man sich dieser immer wieder aufs Neue stellen, auch in Anbetracht von Rückschlägen und in den Weg gelegten Steinen. Es liegt in der Natur der Sache, dass man dabei oftmals auf sich allein gestellt ist. Das ist jedoch nur die halbe Wahrheit. Wenig ist möglich ohne die Hilfe anderer. Deshalb möchte ich die Gelegenheit nutzen, all denen zu danken, die mich die letzten Jahre auf vielfältige Weise darin unterstützt haben, die mit meiner Promotion verbundenen Herausforderungen zu meistern. Zunächst möchte ich Prof. Dr. Gebhard Rusch danken, dass er mein Interesse für Organisationstheorien und die Betrachtung vielfältiger Phänomene aus dieser Perspektive geweckt hat. Er war es auch, der mich nach meiner Diplomarbeit darin ermutigte und unterstützte, ein Promotionsvorhaben anzugehen. Im Hinblick auf die Verwirklichung des Vorhabens, gilt mein Dank allen Beteiligten des Graduiertenkollegs „Pfade organisatorischer Prozesse“ sowie der Dahlem Research School der Freien Universität Berlin. Ich möchte besonders Prof. Dr. Jörg Sydow und Prof. Dr. Georg Schreyögg für den Aufbau und die Leitung des Graduiertenkollegs danken.
