Burning Rate of Wood Cribs with Controlled Airflow
Fire Technology, 2023 AbstractThere is a dire need to improve our prediction capabilities of wildland fire behavior in a range of conditions from marginal burning to the most extreme. In order to develop a more physically-based operational wildland fire behavior model, we need to improve our understanding of the effect of ventilation on burning rate of fuel beds.

Harnessing Fungal Biowelding for Constructing Mycelium‐Engineered Materials
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Mycelium‐bound composites (MBCs) offer low‐carbon alternatives for construction, yet interfacial bonding remains a critical challenge. This review examines fungal biowelding as a biocompatible adhesive, elucidating mycelium‐mediated interfacial mechanisms and their role in material assembly. Strategies to optimize biowelding are discussed, highlighting

Controlled inlet airflow in ventilated facades: a numerical analysis
IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2019 Abstract A research study was conducted to investigate the summer thermal performance of different ventilated façades, by means of experimentally validated numerical simulation. Three ventilated configurations were tested: L, with a lightweight external layer, IM and EM with a massive cladding respectively in the inner and outer side of ...
