Benchmarking Potential Construction Waste Streams and Their Climate Impact: Life Cycle Assessment‐Based Targets for Strategic Planning of Construction Processes

Sustainable Development, Volume 34, Issue S2, Page 280-295, March 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how construction waste intensity affects greenhouse gas emissions (GHGe), analyzing data from 345 buildings constructed between 2007 and 2025. Using material waste rates (MWR) from previous cases, it predicts climate impacts based on typical material compositions.

Characterizing and Modeling the Mechanical Properties of the Cement Mortar Modified with Fly Ash for Various Water-to-Cement Ratios and Curing Times

Advances in Civil Engineering, 2019
Despite many research studies on the effect of the fly ash content (FA) on the mechanical behavior of the cement mortar, there has not been an extensive study investigating the effect of FA, curing time (t), and water-to-cement ratio (w/c) on the ...

Evaluating the Microstructure and Interaction of Bioaggregates in Concrete Using microCT

X-Ray Spectrometry, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 285-293, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the use of x‐ray computed microtomography (microCT) to evaluate the incorporation of bioaggregates—specifically macauba (Acrocomia aculeata) endocarp and jute fibers—into cement‐based composites. MicroCT enables non‐destructive, three‐dimensional characterization of the internal microstructure, providing insights into ...

Antitrust for the fintech era

American Business Law Journal, Volume 63, Issue 1, Page 57-78, Spring 2026.
Abstract The emerging relationship between fintechs and banks has revealed antitrust's antiquation. At one time, scholars predicted that fintechs could democratize banking while providing a critical source of competition. But then banks began to acquire their digital rivals: about 900 acquisitions of fintechs have taken place since 2021.

Quantifying Multi‐Source Sediment Supply in a Tropical Foreland Basin (Oligocene‐Miocene Nyalau Formation, Borneo)

Basin Research, Volume 38, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Detrital zircon unmixing identifies three sediment sources for the Oligocene–Miocene Nyalau Formation, including a previously unrecognised syn‐depositional component characterised by Oligocene–Miocene volcanic zircons and Neoproterozoic populations absent from established sources.

δ‐Bismuth Oxide Responsible for Tooth Discolouration—A Laboratory Investigation

International Endodontic Journal, Volume 59, Issue 3, Page 538-548, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Aims To investigate the phase changes of bismuth oxide in contact with sodium hypochlorite responsible for tooth discolouration. Methodology Bismuth oxide (monoclinic α−phase; C) was mixed with sodium hypochlorite at 20°C, 37°C, and 60°C (B20, B37, B60) for a period of 24 weeks with weekly refreshing of solutions.
