Sequestration of CO2 by concrete and natural minerals - current status, future potential, and additional benefits

open access: yesCircular Agricultural Systems
Concrete structures are some of the largest constructions in human civilization. Their manufacture releases CO2 into atmosphere, which is partially readsorbed by standing structures, and further release occurs when they are demolished.

Biomimetic robots driven by smart materials: Motion forms, stimulation methods and applications

open access: yesResponsive Materials, EarlyView.
Biomimetic robots enhance adaptability by mimicking biological systems, but rigid materials limit performance. Smart materials with stimuli responsiveness and shape adaptability enable more flexible actuation and improved environmental interaction.

Characterisation of the Electrical Properties of Wastes Vitrified from Canarian Island Basaltic Quarries: Original Glasses and Glass-Ceramics

open access: yesCeramics
We obtained original glasses and glass-ceramics through the controlled melting and recrystallisation of basalt rocks extracted from several quarries in the Canary Islands.

Cold‐curing effects on the strength development and sulfuric acid resistance of basalt fiber‐reinforced hybrid alkali‐activated slag mortars

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Cold weather conditions impose substantial constraints upon the performance and long‐term resilience of concrete materials. Alkali‐activated slag (AAS) presents itself as a promising substitute, exhibiting sustained hydraulic activity even when exposed to ambient conditions characterized by low temperatures.

Evaluation of cold joint effects on the microstructure and mechanical behavior of three‐dimensional printed concrete specimen

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract 3D concrete printing (3DCP) is an automated construction technique that uses an extrusion process to fabricate structures efficiently. However, the layer‐by‐layer process can create interlayer weaknesses, and interruptions during printing can result in cold joints, which can negatively affect the structural behavior.

Structural testing and analytical model of Reinforced Concrete (RC) prisms with 3D‐printed concrete permanent formwork under compressive loading

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The implementation of traditional steel reinforcement in 3D concrete printed structures is a major challenge. Although 3D‐printed structures may be used as formwork, the knowledge about their structural contribution is limited. This research aims to experimentally evaluate the structural performance of reinforced concrete prisms with 3D ...

Origin of zeolites from the Kirkpatrick basalt, Solo Nunatak, Antarctica: significance to the petrogenesis of basalt

open access: yes, 1984
The Kirkpatrick Basalt has an anomalously high initial 87Sr/86Sr ratio which varies from 0.709 to 0.714. One possible cause for the Sr isotopic anomaly is the alteration of the basalt by the solutions which precipitated zeolites in the vesicles of ...

The emergence and complexification of symbolic practices in the Homo lineage: an archaeological and cognitive perspective Émergence et complexification des pratiques symboliques dans la lignée Homo : une approche archéologique et cognitive

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Recent archaeological discoveries, reviewed in this essay, challenge traditional views on the emergence of human symbolic cognition. Once believed to have originated in Europe around 40,000 years ago, new evidence shows it emerged much earlier across diverse regions.
