Al2Mo3O12/polyethylene composites with reduced coefficient of thermal expansion [PDF]
Recently, polymer composites reinforced with low fractions of thermomiotic nanoceramics have triggered a lot of research. The efforts have been focused on achieving considerable reduction of the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of polymeric ...

Transport of per-polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in high-density polyethylene (HDPE) geomembrane liners [PDF]
The objective of this study is to investigate the fate and transport of per-polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) through a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) geomembrane (GM) that is commonly used in landfill composite liner systems.

Contemporary environmental issues of landfill leachate: assessment & remedies [PDF]
Landfills are the primary option for waste disposal all over the world. Most of the landfill sites across the world are old and are not engineered to prevent contamination of the underlying soil and groundwater by the toxic leachate.

Early detection of first-time slope failures using acoustic emission measurements : large-scale physical modelling [PDF]
Early warning systems for slope instability need to alert users of accelerating slope deformation behaviour to enable safety-critical decisions to be made. This study shows that acoustic emission (AE) monitoring of active waveguides (i.e.
