Cemented materials in the LLW and MLW Spanish disposal
Materiales de Construccion, 1999 BWR and PWR cemented matrices to confine low and medium simulated liquid radioactive wastes have been submitted to the leaching process in de-ionized water at 20ºC and 40ºC, to obtain the medium leachability index (L) and the effective diffusion ...

Studies about the heat of hydration developed in mortars with natural and by-product materials
Materiales de Construccion, 2000 The heat of hydration developed in reactions of mortars and concretes can be sensibly reduced using pozzolanic materials. However, the decrease of the heat of hydration is not directly proportional to the amount of cement substituted, because of the heat

CMiNet: An R package and user‐friendly Shiny App for constructing consensus microbiome networks
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 1, Page 52-66, January 2026.Abstract Microbial networks offer critical insights into community structure, ecological interactions and host–microbe dynamics. However, constructing reliable microbiome networks remains challenging due to variability among existing inference methods, limited overlap between inferred networks and the absence of a gold standard (a universally accepted ...

Rendering mortars in Medina Azahara, Part I: Material characterization and alteration process
Materiales de Construccion, 1997 Rendering mortars, which are still exposed to the open air on some of the walls of Medina Azahara, are studied and characterized in this work. Some repairing mortars used in different previous restorations are also characterized. Those rendering mortars

European Policy Analysis, Volume 11, Issue 4, Page 475-492, Fall 2025.Abstract This article applies the concept of transaction to the process of policy transfer, through the case of conflict of interest regulation in France, using archives, documentary sources, and interviews with stakeholders. It contributes to the literature on policy translation by clarifying the role of contingency, which remains underspecified.

Early age volume changes in concrete due to chemical shrinkage of cement paste
Materiales de Construccion, 1991 Unrestrained early age volume changes due to chemical shrinkage in cement pastes, mortars and concretes have been determined. The measurements were performed on sealed and unsealed samples which were stored under water.

Quantifying phenotypic plasticity: A call for consistency
Functional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 11, Page 2974-2984, November 2025.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The interest of evolutionary, functional and applied ecologists in the study of phenotypic plasticity has grown considerably in recent decades. From being considered irrelevant in the mid‐20th century, phenotypic plasticity is now considered ubiquitous and essential for

Structural Concrete, Volume 26, Issue 5, Page 6249-6273, October 2025.Abstract The combined use of high‐performance fiber reinforced concrete (HPFRC) and prestressing systems in bridge construction offers significant advantages, including material and cost savings, as well as enhanced durability. However, the shear behavior of such elements remains still a topic of scientific debate.
