Abstract Face masks have been widely employed as a personal protective measure during the COVID-19 pandemic.However, concerns remain that masks create a false sense of security that reduces adherence to other public health measures, including social distancing.This paper tested whether mask-wearing was negatively associated with social distancing c
Graphene-based materials are elective materials for a number of technologies due to their unique properties.Also, semiconductor nanocrystals have been extensively explored due to their size-dependent properties that make them useful for several applications.By coupling both types of materials, new applications are envisaged that explore the synergi
Generator Wire This study proposes an effective steel frame modular system and evaluates the structural performance of its beam-column connection through experimental and analytical work.The new steel frame modular system utilizes the blind bolts, which allow free access to the structural members of the closed cross-section.In addition, the new mod
