High Energy-Efficiency Buildings
, 2003 In cold, central European climates, hyper-insulated, heat-conserving buildings have proven a very effective way to reduce current energy consumption to 1/10 th of a traditional house. Using dry, stratified building techniques (Str/En) allows to obtain quite easily the required thermal and acoustical performances, also enhancing the construction process

Porous materials in building energy technologies—a review of the applications, modelling and experiments [PDF]
, 2018 Improving energy efficiency in buildings is central to achieving the goals set by Paris agreement in 2015, as it reduces the energy consumption and consequently the emission of greenhouse gases without jeopardising human comfort.

Harmonics Monitoring Survey on LED Lamps
Renewable Energy and Sustainable Development, 2017 Light Emitting Diode (LED) lamps are being increasingly used in many applications. These LED lamps operate using a driver, which is a switching device. Hence, LED lamps will be a source of harmonics in the power system.

Local Energy Efficiency Interventions by the Prioritization of Thermal Zones in an Historical University Building [PDF]
, 2016 Architectural constraints are a crucial aspect in energy retrofitting of historic buildings. Usual global interventions are often not allowed since preserving historical values of the building stock is mandatory.

Experimental study and model of interface shear stress relaxation behavior of anchors in red clay
Rock and Soil Mechanics, 2021 The shear stress relaxation of the anchor-soil interface is the key factor causing the prestress loss of anchor rod (cable). Firstly, a device for testing the shear stress relaxation of the anchor-soil interface was developed.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

Molecular bases of circadian magnesium rhythms across eukaryotes
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Circadian rhythms in intracellular [Mg2+] exist across eukaryotic kingdoms. Central roles for Mg2+ in metabolism suggest that Mg2+ rhythms could regulate daily cellular energy and metabolism. In this Perspective paper, we propose that ancestral prokaryotic transport proteins could be responsible for mediating Mg2+ rhythms and posit a feedback model ...
