Sentence examples for strengthened confinement from inspiring English sources

The strengthened confinement and decreasing space make the electrolyte ions tightly packed, as a consequence of the strong repulsion between the ions and the electrode.

The review concerns analysis and design procedures for flexural strengthening, shear strengthening, and confinement.

Plasmonic effects of metal nano-particles embedded in interlayers do not compromise the electrical solar cell parameters and similarly strengthen light confinement in the top cell, however detrimental effects are observed in the bottom cell current output.

Moreover, the quantum confinement is strengthened in the wire-like deposits relative to the film-like deposits.

A simulation work indicates that the overall dynamics of confined ions become much weakened when the confinement effect is strengthened (Fig. 9a) [117].

This deeper physical insight is a must as a periodically propagating dopant is obviously subject to a periodically strengthening and weakening confinement which forces the spatial spread of the dopant to respond accordingly and not to remain indifferent.

Compared to the confinement strengthening systems provided by high-strength fiber-reinforced concrete, ferrocement and steel plate jacketing; Roy et al. (2016) found that FRP jacketing was the most effective in restoring the compressive strength and energy dissipation of heat-damaged RC short columns.

In this study, the effects of water, seawater and alkaline (5% NaOH) solution ageing conditions on flax fabric reinforced epoxy composites used for civil engineering applications (i.e. as external strengthening and confinement of concrete) were investigated.

Furthermore, the results confirm a significant increase in reliability of RC-frames subjected to seismic due to FRP-flexural/FRP-confinement strengthening especially in case of applying FRP-flexural strengthening.

The test results have indicated that the section circularization of square columns can significantly improve the effectiveness of FRP confinement, and strengthening square columns using section circularization in combination with partial FRP confinement is a promising and economical alternative to the fully FRP strengthening technique.

For the strengthened RC columns, the steel angles with strips developed a confinement effect for concrete as shown in Fig. 21.
