Glass foams were produced using recycled glass and rice husk ash as raw materials. After deep characterization, miniature masonry model tests demonstrated effective thermal insulation when applied as a ceiling lining. The study validates the technical and environmental feasibility of glass foams for sustainable insulating materials in building ...

ABSTRACT For over two decades, firms have built platforms and engaged open innovation communities to improve and customize their products through widened participation in the design process. While the benefits of involving those outside a firm as co‐designers have been well described, how co‐design processes unfold over time at the boundary between ...

Modeling the Distribution, Impacts, and Mitigation of Anthropogenic Heat in Los Angeles
Abstract Anthropogenic heat emissions from human energy consumption contribute to the urban heat island (UHI) effect, yet their spatiotemporal distributions and impacts remain uncertain. In this study, we develop a 100 m resolution, hourly anthropogenic heat flux (AHF) data set for Los Angeles County and use the Weather Research and Forecasting model ...

Multi‐LiDAR Observations of Coastal Atmospheric Duct Evolution in Hampton Roads
Abstract To better understand the influence of atmospheric ducts on radio frequency (RF) operations, continuous high‐resolution observations of temperature and water vapor are essential. Hampton University's (HU) 48‐inch Raman‐Mie LiDAR provides such measurements through rotational and vibrational Raman techniques, enabling detailed monitoring of ...
