ABSTRACT The transition to circular construction suffers from uncertainties related to costs, market realities, supply, regulations and expertise using secondary materials in building projects. Uncertainties are large, and resolving them needs policy interventions.

Circular Innovations in Complex Systems: A Blueprint of Four Design Archetypes
ABSTRACT Circular innovations (CI), defined as the redesign of products, services or practices to minimise waste, reduce resource use and regenerate natural systems, are essential for advancing the circular economy. Despite growing recognition, their deployment in systems of linked parts with unpredictable interactions (complex systems) remains limited

Behavior of RC beams patch repaired and strengthened with FRP composites : a numerical study [PDF]
Includes bibliographical references.Reinforced concrete (RC) beams get deteriorated and become deficient mainly due to corrosion of steel reinforcements, poor maintenance and design, earthquakes and aging.

ABSTRACT Post‐disaster contexts generate large volumes of damaged building stock with significant, yet often unquantified, circularity potential. Through the lens of strategic management, the circular economy emerges as a transformative pathway to strengthen systemic resilience by reducing dependencies on external resources and mitigating supply chain ...

Analytical behaviour of FRP strengthened reinforced concrete beams under low velocity impact load incorporating rate dependant material constitutive models [PDF]
Includes bibliographical references.Since the 1980s, the use of fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) composites in strengthening and rehabilitation of existing reinforced and pre-stressed structures has gained popularity.

Guided Toward Equity: Communities of Practice and Organizational Change in Community Colleges
ABSTRACT Although community colleges advance equity by providing opportunities for marginalized students to pursue higher education, barriers to earning credentials remain, particularly for students of color. Higher education stakeholders are investing in “equity work” as organizations take responsibility for ensuring equitable outcomes.

This comprehensive review presents a progressive roadmap for perovskite vision detectors. Centered on perovskite‐based artificial perception, the graphic illustrates a systematic evolution: starting with fundamental material engineering and device architectures, advancing toward complex functional strategies such as flexible neuromorphic imaging ...
