Effect of Additives on Mechanical Strengths of Adobe Made From Soils of Isfahan [PDF]
At present, there are still large numbers of existing buildings in Iran that are made of adobe. Isfahan is a historical city in Central Iran which enjoys the abundance of its historical and non-historical adobe buildings, some of which belong toseveral ...

Numerical modelling of in-plane behaviour of adobe walls [PDF]
Some tests for material characterization of adobe blocks and adobe masonry have been carried out in universities and laboratories around the world. However, the number of tests is quite limited in comparison with those carried out with other structural ...

Microsphere Autolithography—A Scalable Approach for Arbitrary Patterning of Dielectric Spheres
MicroSphere Autolithography (µSAL) enables scalable fabrication of patchy particles with customizable surface motifs. Focusing light through dielectric microspheres creates well defined, tunable patches via a conformal poly(dopamine) photoresist. Nearly arbitrary surface patterns can be achieved, with the resolution set by the index contrast between ...

Evaluation of Reinforced Adobe Techniques for Sustainable Reconstruction in Andean Seismic Zones
This research presents a methodological process for selecting the most appropriate construction technique for the reconstruction of housing after a seismic disaster in a rural and heritage context. This process, which is applicable to a large part of the

Precursor Mineral Phases of Forming Mollusk Shell Nacre: A Study of Hydrated Samples
Mineral, organic phase, and water are the essential components in mollusk shell nacre formation. Their interplay is not well understood, because the hydrated material is difficult to observe at high resolution, under close to native conditions. Forming nacre is studied using environmental and cryo‐electron microscopy and hydrated ACC phases, together ...
