Experimental Investigation on the Heat Dissipation and Postfire Structural Performance of a Reinforced Concrete Column with Biomimicked Geometry

Cactus plants are prevalent in hot terrain locations. The spines in the cactus plants have an important function in preventing water evaporation. The strong pointed spines serve to distribute heat and prevent internal moisture loss owing to high heat. This paper addresses the biomimicking of a cactu...
